below, is my “LifeStream” – primarily consisting of micro-blogging updates from my phone (
)… think of it as sort of like my ongoing autobiography, told in bite-sized chunks of words and sometimes pictures and videos…
but, there is also stuff that i just come across online – such as news/blog items (
), links, music, photos or whatever – that i wanted to share publically for some reason or another…
this is all continually updated in real time throughout the day, pretty much every day (just keep in mind, it is all in reverse chronological order)… if you want an idea of who i am, what i’m interested in, and what i do with my time and energy, read on…
if you came looking for actual blog posts only, the left sidebar has a number of browsing and search options… anything else you may be looking for is probably found on the right somewhere…

Real energy/motivation issues for days now. Haven't even felt like frothing milk for lattes, making americanos instead - THAT'S lazy :P

And no return of the victory fanfare after battles :( But, btw, we are cautiously optimistic about the battle system itself so far.

FF13 uses save points??? HELLO?! This is the 21st century, people! WHY do so many games STILL not let you save anywhere/time??

We have Final Fantasy XIII in our hands! :) um, time to find out if it's any good or not :P

mmkay, that experimental little bit of cumin I added to the chicken green chile stew may have been a mistake.

Cooking a big pot of chicken green chile stew, listening to the new full-length episode (YAY!!) of The Hollywood Saloon.

Gonna start a stew this morn so I don't have to cook dinner tonight - Final Fantasy XIII comes out today, that is our plan for this eve :)

There is an oft-stated misconception that if a user never clicks on ads, then blocking them won't hurt a site financially. This is wrong. Most sites, at least sites the size of ours, are paid on a per view basis. If you have an ad blocker running, and you load 10 pages on the site, you consume resources from us (bandwidth being only one of them), but provide us with no revenue. |

It was warm enough today that I made the first iced lattes of the year. Caramel for Terra, just a bit of sugar syrup for mine. Nummy :)

Seemingly overnight, Welsey is now saying "coffee" rather than "fawkee" - the only way he has ever said it since he started talking.

And then I always look around for a neighbor watching. Maybe with a video camera - i'm gonnna be on youtube. Then the fark.com front page.
|
|
|
And i'm a total insectiphobe! So, I jump around and scream like a girl, spill my coffee, swinging the flyswatter and always miss. Grrrr.
|
|
|
BEES!! Year round! I just don't get it - come out here back morning coffee and there is always a bee buzzing around!! They never go away!

Why is there no WM6 Facebook app that has the unified news feed view? I don't get why anyone would only view individual people's feeds.

We watched (Netflix-suggested) 2009's Ink. Stunning and incredible - I absolutely loved it, haven't been blown away like that in a long time

Wesley graduated from a baby car seat to a booster seat. Today he is a man.
|
|
|
Btw, trivia: i've been online for 25+ years(!!!) (started in the BBS days) and @don_rivers is only the 3rd person I met online then IRL.
|
|
|
Now heading to K-Mart for slumber party night munchies :) Sigh. This town needs a Target. K-Mart is second best munchies, though.

So stoked I got to make drinks for guests. Really is one of my greatest simple pleasures :)
|
|
|

And now, Krystal, Terra's friend from work is sipping a latte while her daughter and Wesley play together. I am loving making drinks!!

@don_rivers kids are welcome, we have one ourselves :P but otherwise, yeah, we wanna start having guests, so 'soon' works for us :)

Awww, company cancelled :( @don_rivers, if you're still out and about, it's a great time to drop by for a quick afternoon caffix :)
|
|
|
Ever since @Thorobredz (Chris Dunn to you FB'ers) moved away, we've got no one to make coffee for, so this is kinda' exciting :)
|
|
|
Straightening up a bit - we're having company, a friend of Terra's from work. The coffee bar will benefit someone besides us for a change:)

Done for the day. Watching Terra play the Heavy Rain demo (PS3). Very impressive so far. Is this the future of interactive fiction?

Terra hurt her back at work - 3 days off, but she's pretty much chained to her recliner - thank God for PS3 Netflix streaming :)

These beans do clearly need a bit more rest but there is a foaminess no matter what beans i've used that dissolves, leaving actual crema.
|
|
|
Btw, I know how to neither build a gauge nor adjust an opv but I hear neither is excessively complicated.
|
|
|
I think i'll have no choice but to build a pressure gauge, this Gaggia is clearly set way over 9 bars, shots are foamy no matter what I do.

Sigh. What I would not give for a disc golf course here in Alamogordo. Cloudcroft and Ruidoso will be too wintery for quite awhile still.
|
|
|
We need some time out/unplugged - headed for Ruidoso, gonna go to the little kitchen/bar shop up there and maybe one or two other stops.

Netflix came back online :) So, tonight's slumber party movie: Spice World. That's right, the Spice Girls movie. And Ben & Jerry's.
|
|
|
WHAT???!!!!! Netflix is down on slumber party night!!!!???? Now that's just wrong!
|

I applied a fix for my site lifestream AND our coffee beans shipment arrived within ten minutes of each other. This day is getting better :)

Starting morns lately blasting Bad Romance by Lady Gaga. And I've been referring to my Gaggia espresso machine as "Lady Gaggia". Send help.

Grrr, out of milk, no afternoon latte for me - guess i'll make an americano. Maybe if I add cream and close my eyes, it'll be close.
|
|

Ronna & Jennifer: I'd gladly trade - I'm not ready for cold weather to end, summers last WAY too long here. (and I love coat pockets :) )

Either way, I opened a bunch of windows. Get the stale winter air out of the house. Now if only there were a proper breeze.
|
|
|
68 degrees at 9am. It's still february. Maybe my calendar's broke - clearly either it or the weather needs a firmware patch or something.
