I was in here trying to "clean", getting stuff off of my "catch all" table--and I took my Bible and notebook off of it and went to put in in my "go bag" (pictured) and couldn't find the bag. I was wracking my brain trying to...

Interestingly, neither the text nor the music of "Tannenbaum" started as a song associated with Christmas. Tannenbaum means "fir tree" not "Christmas tree." In 1820 a preacher and folk music collector, August Zarnack published a...

Yesterday, my professor asked me about my academic status. I told her I’d already finished all my subjects, and as far as I know, the only thing left for me is the comprehensive exam. Life just got super busy for me — work,...

I wonder if there are any Stargate fans lurking in some corner of mylot? I did a quick search of the tag "Stargate" and the people who used that tag before were last active many, many years ago. But...

Nothing exciting--just something about a lawsuit against the apartment complex I live in (ICRAA Violation?) I could use an extra $10,000, but it's only for people who first started renting here from 2023, and I moved here in...

Earlier today, I went out and got the mail. No bills, thankfully, but I got two catalogs, a couple of people wanting money that I don't have, and something about a PG&E settlement. Crummy, but no bills, at least. I didn't walk...

moirai @xstitcher Ah interesting. Yeah, we don't get any of those from the mail here. I guess the closest thing to those are people handing out flyers or leaving them at the gate. Like taping to the gate these little plastics that contain a slip of paper that has...

moirai @xstitcher Hmm... ok. Still seems like you get mail way, way, way more often than we do. Like I said, we get mail like once a month, and it's only just the bills... Come to think of it, it's only just the electric bill now, since the phone company sends...
