He is a little demon -- I can tell by the scratch marks on my arm. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/7/1/213851/9406 We've been having really odd (for New England) weather. Almost every evening, we have thunderstorms. It reminds me of North Carolina. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/6/20/114542/686 I can never think of a title, so "Hello" seems to be the default. Later, of course, I'm going to look through my diaries and wonder wtf I was thinking, not giving entries descriptive titles. Kind of like how I used the same title for several different conference presentations (the papers were actually different, to some degree or another, but you wouldn't know that from looking at my CV). Basically, I'm a lazy idiot. Unrelated stuff inside, plus an Ask Husi. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/6/16/154045/164 etc. On Saturday, my eye doctor diagnosed me with bacterial conjunctivitis and sent me on my way with a prescription for an antibiotic eyedrop. Well, he actually had the receptionist call it in, but that's beside the point. The doctor assured me that I should feel a lot better by Sunday. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/6/4/92143/26221 Transcribed from my writing notebook, written at 8:40am. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/5/24/143610/242 Bourbon has been purchased. Mint juleps tonight on the patio. Inside, general round-up and blather. And two ASK HUSIs. Update [2008-5-24 18:50:0 by toxicfur]:I found the answer to Ask HuSi the second! Hooray! http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/5/10/22448/9556 I was going to post this tomorrow, but then I realized that I'm going to spend as little time in front of my computer as possible tomorrow, so now's the time to post. Tomorrow is USian Mother's Day. For me, it's been awful, listening to the ads encouraging me to buy something for my mother. "She's fucking dead," I tell the dude on the radio, wanting me to get the flowers I've bought for her for the last three years. He doesn't listen and continues to prattle on about deadlines for ordering flowers to be delivered out of state. It hurts. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/5/7/205737/7891 Life has pretty much sucked recently. The estate lawyer we hired, a family friend who's known me since I was born, has done nothing since we hired her. As a result, I have one brother who became very angry at me, another brother who's tried like hell to get something to happen with the estate, and me, getting more and more angry at the universe. On top of the family stuff, there's work, one deadline after another since I got back from North Carolina in February. Finally, those deadlines are over, and I have permission to take some time for myself. So, following the lead of Bob "Trailblazer" Abooey, I gathered up the dogs and went to the Fells. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/4/16/182222/202 just continues to shit on my family. Incoherent ranting and whinging inside. http://www.hulver.com/scoop/story/2008/4/5/21428/85784 Quite busy, but good. Inside: New stuff. New dog training. New recipe. New soap.
