So I went up to visit Grey on Saturday for good food and zombies. Sadly, Zombie Dice did not arrive (if you haven’t watched Wil Wheaton’s Table Top on YouTube, you are missing out). However, I did get my zombie fix. Her eldest introduced me to Left 4 Dead. A … More.
So I spent a couple hours of my Sunday watching the first few eps of Dark Shadows, the original series, partly because I’ve always meant to and partly because I wanted to see if Tim Burton’s take had any basis on anything at all (the trailer, like with so many … More.
Please feel free to replace with your own witty subject line. It’s Monday and dreary and…oh, right, I was going to stop with the excuses. Feh. As I mentioned over on the India Harper blog in my belated Friday turned today post, Grey and I are both trying to get … More.
So I indulged in a Scream-athon this weekend, the first through the most recent fourth movie. And you know what? I enjoyed them all, save one eensy thing that happened in the fourth movie, but whatever. The writing is even more clever than I remember and the acting pretty decent … More.
I indulged in a bit of scary/horror movie watching this weekend. A double feature of Grave Encounters and The Last Exorcism, both of which were better than expected but could have been amazing if they’d steered clear of supernatural explanations/reasons. Spoilers, obviously. First up, Grave Encounters, which I’ve been meaning … More.

Well, it’s Monday, so not really that marvelous. But it is gorgeous out, so it’s not all bad. Spent the weekend putting up not one, but two batches of homebrew (a five-gallon and a one-gallon batch). The five-gallon was another malt-mix base, which I might be able to do in … More.
Hate DST. Any day I have to get up before the sun does is not a good day. Although the suckiness of time change is mitigated, somewhat, by the fact that temps are supposed to be upwards of 60F today and tomorrow. Hopefully I’ll be awake by lunchtime to fully … More.
Another slothful and relatively uneventful weekend has come and gone. Well, not totally uneventful. My tax refund finally came through, so I went ahead and upgraded to the newest iPhone. The package arrived Friday. Hooray! All weekend to play with my new phone. Um, not exactly. The shipping box was … More.
Well, the bottles for my home brew did not arrive, despite the tracking info stating that it was in Philly and out for delivery since five in the morning on Saturday. With any luck they’ll arrive today, but the weekend would have been nice. So what did I do instead? … More.
