I decided to take most of the weekend off, so for the last three days I haven’t done much writing at all. It’s good to have a break every once in a while, but I always find that it’s hard for me to recover after a lot of downtime. It’s like I get used to [...]
My husband and I were hoping to be able to go on a weekend getaway sometime this month, but it never happened. He has been so busy with work that it would be impossible for him to take a vacation right now. But things should slow down by the middle of October, so we’re currently [...]

Furthermore, the DEA intercepted hundreds of thousands of emails and messages from [...]
So I found a new theme yesterday that looked pretty decent in the test run, so I’m going to try to change over tonight and then tweak the sidebars and stuff to get it to look the way I want. Unfortunately, I don’t have a “dummy” blog or anything like that set up where I [...]

Many times, two managers on the same project would issue conflicting instructions, which left regular workers like me stuck wondering what I should do. That [...]
I’m sure you’ve heard by now that Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad appeared at Columbia University in New York earlier today. Not surprisingly, he spouted off with some of the crazy b.s. he’s known for, including saying such things as the Holocaust never happened and that al-Qaida isn’t responsible for the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
