So apparently all that cold weather has caught up with me. I also haven’t taken my multivitamin for a couple weeks, and that’s my own fault. I woke up this morning (on my new queen size bed!) and felt like I was swallowing daggers. My head was hurting all over, and my sinuses were all…
The Raging Tech: Burger Slayer!
That’s right, the RT is now a certified Burger Slayer! Yesterday on my way to get my new bed, we stopped at a Hardee’s and noticed they had a promotion going on. Ordering any 2/3 lb burger got you a free Burger Slayer dog tag. So of course, my friend and I both ordered 2/3…
I am Pregnant (With Thoughts)
There are a lot of things on my mind these days. My priorities seem to shift throughout the day. My hot water pipe seems to have frozen entirely so that no hot water passes through my house. I fear that until the weather warms up it may not unfreeze. I left water running slightly, but…
Entrepreneurs: Take Time Out with Loved Ones
I’ve written before about the “New Economy” – what we should be valuing nowadays is more time for ourselves and with our family, rather than more possessions. Possessions are nice; don’t get me wrong. But even when I was making lowly pay as a manager at a certain Big Blue Video Rental Corporation, my time…
Futurama is Dead: Long Live Futurama!
As many of you may be sad to note, the heavily-syndicated cartoon Futurama has ended its run on Cartoon Network’s Adult Swim time slot, due to the running out of their contract. This saddened me and many of my friends who loved Futurama. I only saw a few episodes in it’s original run, but it…
A Very Special Raging Tech New Year
Ladies and Gentleman, welcome to our holiday special. It’s been a good year, for the most part. It’s hard when you work in an educational environment not to think of this as the middle of the year – but 2007 has been pretty good to me. I thought I’d go ahead and recap some of…
Movin’ On Up (In Silvermoon City)
That’s right folks, my level 9 blood elf warlock is now a level 12! Woo hoo! In case you’re just tuning in, I’ve been delving into World of Warcraft to see what all the fuss is about. I like it a lot so far. I really hate when several creatures attack at once and overtake…
New Year’s Resolutions
I gave up trying to give New Year’s resolutions a few years ago, because I got tired of promises I couldn’t or wouldn’t keep. They were all for my own good, but I couldn’t bring myself to form better habits. It’s one of my biggest vices, not being able to change my habits easily. To…
World of Warcraft – Give it a Chance
I have to say that one of my nerdiest background issues lately has been my frustration with World of Warcraft. I did the 10-day trial and liked it enough to eventually purchase what they call the “Battle Chest” as I mentioned in a previous post. I’m not very good at the game, but I was…
Christmas 2007 Survived! (Part 2)
So I promised I’d also brag about the gifts that I got, so here’s the lowdown on my gift-getting this year: St. John’s Bay “Puffer” Vest – This thing is uber-comfortable material, and keeps me warm without overheating – a common problem amongst heavier people like me when people crank the heat up in the…
