So there I was, browsing the soup aisle at the local-to-the-office 7-11 in the hopes of finding something edible. As I straighten up from peering at the instant ramen on the bottom shelf, a man just down the aisle catches my eye. “Hey, is that your car out front?” I grace him with my very [...]

The very first panel we went to at Nekocon was actually on a whim, because I looked at the schedule and saw the following text: “Putting on Goggles Does Not Make You Steampunk” Of course, this is a Major Pet Peeve of mine – people sticking on a pair of goggles and saying they’re steampunk, [...]

Unfortunately, when I put the batter in said baking dish, I apparently put in rather more than half. Fear the [...]

A couple of weeks ago (actually, exactly two weeks ago) I finally got my scooter back from the shop. Among other minor cosmetic things still wrong with it (mostly by my choice), the little rubber thing that sealed the trunk lock against the side of the scooter was partially detached. My dad and I had [...]

So, yesterday was a great day. I actually made real progress on cleaning up my apartment. The Lunacy was Black Butterfly Moon. All the fuss and joy over the latest BPAL update had cheered me up from the previous gloom and precarious perch on the edge of another depression fit. The weather was gorgeous The [...]

I could hear the screams from the floor below, carrying through the air as I made my way upwards towards the fateful door. It was my duty to assist my fellows, as the battle was taking place in my alotted sleeping place. Pausing outside the ominous portal to gather my courage about me, I flinched [...]
