  • I got nothing

    I was going to do a nice Friday Random Ten with “London” or “England” or something, just like Rana did. But I don’t have any “London” or “England” songs. Can you believe that? So sad. I’m honestly killing time here. I’m listening to Lenny Kravitz’s “Freedom Train” which gave me the idea to use “Freedom”…

  • 7th of July

    I can’t really add anything of substance to the London bombing news. I have to say that though I was saddened and disgusted and angry, I was not surprised, not the way I was with 9/11. I’m frustrated by our administration right now because I believe it’s partly their fault that this kind of event…

  • Freedom from religion, evolution and confluence of ideas

    On the way home from work this evening, I heard this report on NPR. I was incensed after listening to it. I’ve been following the Intelligent Design/Creationism story for a while, though not as thoroughly and closely as PZ Myers. He could speak about this much more scientfically and less emotionally than I. This story…

  • The 5th of July

    We trekked into downtown Philly with Geeky Girl in tow, our neighbors in awe of our adventurous spirit. It’s a 30 minute train ride, followed by a 15 minute walk, not too adventurous in my book, but okay. We somehow ended up on a main route over to Ben Franklin Parkway. We usually are snaking…

  • Laziness abounds and breeds patriotism?

    Mr. Geeky and Geeky Girl are still snoozing away. Me? I have been up since 7:30 goofing around on the computer. We’re not morning people here. Even though I get up early, I don’t like to do anything too strenuous before say, 11. Plans are to get the office into workable form. I have grocery…

  • Things I can’t do without the internets

    One minute after I posted that last post, the internet went down and has been down since just now. Here’s some stuff (besides blogging) that I couldn’t do: 1. Find nearest really cheap store–Kmart, Wal-Mart, etc.–to buy some temporary curtains for new office space.2. Price said curtains.3. Map route to said stores.4. Look up a…

  • Sketchy internets and home improvement

    The internet has been sketchy over the last couple of days. Dang internets! Mr. Geeky came up with a grand plan to give me my own office. He’s a totally cool hubby! We’re converting the front porch into an office, putting a wall between the entryway and the office, putting in a ceiling fan and…
