I’m hungry and it’s Tuesday. Tuesday means a farmer’s market across the street at the Department of Transportation, and I have not been yet this summer. Time to rectify that oversight. I go down the elevator and out the office building doors, hang a right to stop at the ATM just a few feet away, [...]

Arachnid assassination
Monday, June 29, 2009
I am consumed by guilt.
This morning I walked outside, locked the door behind me, and turned to go up the stairs. I stopped short when I saw before me a large and quite lovely spider web. Quite large. And a spider right in the middle. As long as bugs are outside, I’m generally content [...]
A surprise by the door
Friday, June 26, 2009
I came home from work to find two packages for me, both from Amazon.com. I wasn’t expecting anything, so I searched my brain trying to remember ordering something. I grabbed the packages, brought them and the rest of my mail inside, and dropped my work bag on the floor near the door.
I opened the [...]
Randomness: TGIF Version
Friday, June 26, 2009
1. The dentist. Again. This, however, is the end of The Saga of the Broken Tooth (And Its Necessary Repair). The final crown is on. It feels good to have the temporary crown off; I really hated the feel of that thing. This crown feels like a real tooth. The installation and cementing of the [...]
Yep, this feels like the middle of the week
Wednesday, June 24, 2009
Okay, I’ve been driving to work most days because it’s faster (10 minutes or less from home to work and vice versa) than bus or train, though sometimes I do public transport because, hey, I like variety, and also sometimes public transport is easier depending on what is happening before or after work. As an [...]
The Maine Trip
Wednesday, June 17, 2009
My drive to the airport (BWI1) was completely painless. I left my house during the tail end of rush hour, but I was going the opposite direction than most everyone else – fleeing the city – and I didn’t encounter even a hint of slowing the entire way. I easily found my preferred off-site parking [...]

Mmmm, the taste of blood in the morning
Wednesday, June 10, 2009
The dentist. Again. It hurt, though definitely not as bad as the fun of the root canal. There was quite a bit of blood though, because the dentist had to drill below the gum line. That hurt. She numbed part of the gum, but not all of it. I thought of asking for it to [...]
To see a baptism
Monday, June 8, 2009
Last Sunday the bishop announced that there would be a baptism this week. Two, in fact! One baptizee is the son of a member of the ward. The bishop married him and his girlfriend a couple weeks ago so he could be baptized. I don’t know how the other baptizee found the Church, but I’m [...]
Beware the apologetic monsters!
Monday, June 1, 2009
Weird nightmare last night.
One of my hobbies is LDS apologetics, and I am on an email list for an apologetics organization, FAIR. I got behind on reading emails, so last night I was catching up. I also watched the movie 14081. I love a good scary movie.
And then I went to bed.
The nightmare involved me [...]
