My PTD email account will be unavailiable for a few days yet
Oh something else I thought to mention (which I really should have posted about sooner). Apparently my PTD email account has reached its disk quota and is bouncing emails. Expect this to continue for the next few days, because it is going to take me that long to get around to checking my email. Until then you would be better off contacting me at my Verizon or AOL email accounts, which you probably already know of if you bother to read my blog. If you don't, try contacting me on Myspace to Facebook. Current Mood: apologetic |

Help me save some awesome and cute cats. My mom had been feeding some strays, but she has now turned on them and wants to get the kittens euthanized! That's just wrong! Help me save them- if you or someone you know is willing to provide a safe home for the cats and kittens, please post a comment to this entry or email me and let me know.
For people who want to help but don't know any safe and welcoming homes, I suggest posting your objections here and I will pass them on to my mom.
I have pics on Flickr of some of the cats in need of adoption. Current Mood: worried |

Writer's Block: Unlikely Benefactor
I would invest the money in several pet projects, with the goal of making money and bettering the world at the same time. If I couldn't do that, and I had to give the money away directly I would do it slowly and cautiously over the rest of my life. Edit: I would also pass some of the money on to friends; not enough to radically change their lives but $100 or $200 hear and there to ease the headaches brought by looming debts and credit crunches.

I'll be offline for the next few days b/c I suck at computer assembly
So, I bought a bunch of computer components with the aim of self-assembling my own PC. The downside to this is that I have to do everything myself, and inevitably something went wrong during the assembly... so I'll be offline for the next few days trying to figure out why nothing happens when I plug my PC in and press the power button.

Just bought a new computer
I just bought a new computer! I very much hope this will rid me of the problems I've been having with my old one, which now goes into partial retirement (I may still keep it around as a file server/firewall). Current Mood: anxious |

Impeach Jay Bybee
Jay Bybee is a federal judge who authored memos designed to protect CIA agents from prosecution for torture. There's a movement to get him impeached for this. Not only was it illegal and morally wrong, it showed such incredibly poor judgement that he probably never deserved his judicial appointment in the first place. I would actually like to hear arguments from anyone who thinks he deserves his lifetime appointment because I have trouble imagining why anyone would be opposed to this. |

I'm back from Dreamation!
Just got back from Dreamation 2009 (an annual gaming con in NJ). Had a great time, won a few books and a free admission to Dexcon. Currently relaxing, catching up on my sleep and waiting for the inevitable post-con malaise. Current Mood: satisfied |

My eBay listing makes it official! I am now part of web 1.0
I just listed my first eBay auction! Perfect for all the Phantom of the Opera fans who hated the music from the first half of the musical. Don't miss you chance to buy the second half of a classic- well the second half minus the dialog, the props, the acting and whatever songs that didn't fit onto the audio tape. Current Mood: mehCurrent Music: none |

New Years Resolution My New Years resolution:Be a snobby omnivore. I'm restricting myself to vegetable products and meat from humanely treated animals. No tortured livestock, no antibiotics, no artificial hormones- only pasture fed/free range meats for me. Sea caught fish and game animals are good too. I know this is going to mean less meat overall, but it's worth it for a clear conscience and might actually be a little healthier too. Anyone else want to give this a try? Current Mood: righteous |

Do weight issues = anger issues? Maybe.
Years ago I made the observation that women w/ weight issues seemed to have anger problems. I took a lot of flack for this from the "you can't make judgments about people from the way they look" crowd, but it would seem that I've been vindicated (at least slightly). Apparently a study has found that pear-shaped women deal better with stress .This is linked to higher levels of cortisol, a chemical which helps with stress but also builds fat deposits around the waist. Being a pear doesn't go hand in hand with being fat or anorexic, and difficulty dealing with stress doesn't turn you into powder keg, but it's a hint that I might have been onto something with my observations. |
