Now Reading : I hate to use the words epic and saga as they’ve been horribly abused by both media and public. An epic is simply a long narrative, and a saga is basically a historical account or biography. If I were to use either word, I’d make sure to use them to mean what they really mean.

Resolutions : It is traditional to make a resolution on New Year’s Day, something meant to improve one’s life in some meaningful way. One might resolve to go on a diet, to go green, to start saving money, to drink eight glasses of water per day, or to go to bed at a reasonable hour each night. (posted Jan 2, 11:22pm)

Obsession : I’ve been obsessed with a small project lately. I’m trying to install Linux onto an old Via Epia that I’ve had for years, but have never really put to any good use. The problem is that the Epia’s CPU is just plain out of date, so any recent version of Ubuntu will just plain not work. (posted Dec 22, 1:38am)

A Case of the Humbugs : Holly crap! I just realized it’s already December 15th. That means we’re on the, oh, what, fifth day of Christmas? We’re already up to f-i-ive go-o-a-ll-dan ri-i-ings. (posted Dec 15, 2:52am)

Game Night : Last night, treacherous siblings had me Shangai-ed. I charmed my way off the ship, but a punitive curse turned me into a donkey. I helped a scholarly Efreet prepare a legendary banquet. I rescued a Yaltese princess, who wed me out of gratitude and bore two children whose visage resembled that of the full moon. (posted Dec 11, 4:36pm)
