As much as I like some aspects of Firefox — tabbed browsing most notably, and a few of the extensions — I have to say that it has started to drive me nuts. It probably crashes 4 times a week (up from once or twice a week); it is the only application I run which […]

I started reading a book — the title looked ok, the first few pages were interesting enough, though it started to go downhill, it didn’t go downhill enough for me to stop reading it.
And then I read the author bio:
Marcie Walsh, played by Kathy Brier, has been a fan favourite since her first appearance […]

Despite wanting to be hermity, I have been oddly and unusually sociable. It’s much easier in a way: I am not tired out from having to interact with people all day at work. But it’s harder, too — I don’t meet new people (or I do but they are not in Montreal), and it’s so […]

I am late all the time. Not much late, but late.
Not that I need clues, really: I know what’s wrong, at least part of it, and I know what of it is under my control and what isn’t, and I have plans, which I may or may not be able to carry out, but […]

I’ve never gone, so perhaps I misunderstand how best to do this sport.
But today I saw someone snowshoeing — wearing high-heeled boots.

I have so much to say, but no words are coming out.
Usually this then turns into a lot of words all coming out, but this time — I don’t want to talk about things because they involve other people, in some way or another. Or because I don’t know how to start thinking about […]

Seriously. How do you not let yourself be hurt by things which were not meant to hurt? Also, how do you stop being hurt that you’re excluded from something you don’t want to be included in anyhow?
I don’t want to give examples: I have them dating back for years, anyhow, and I think most […]

My coffee maker was a free coffee maker that has performed admirably over the few years I’ve had it. But it is not very good. So I am looking to replace it. What do I replace it with? A normal coffee maker? If so, which one? An espresso maker? But I like having plain normal […]

My sister has now threatened to make me very miserable if I buy her a butt plug or any other sex toy for her birthday (one week before mine). She’ll be turning 13, so it’s not like I’m actually going to do that, though I recall there is a butt plug shaped pastry around in […]
