NaNo in the Raw

I hate being naked in public. I've mentioned in other blog posts how I obsessively reread and edit my entries before posting them, so uploading something without changing anything is making me a bit crazy. Okay, crazier. *grin* But as promised, I have an excerpt of my NaNoWriMo scribblings. This bit is from day 4,... Continue Reading →

The Little Things

I had a bagel for breakfast. I know that doesn't seem like a big deal, but we've been without a means of toasting since the end of July, when we sent our toaster oven/rotisserie to a new family via Goodwill. We promised the eldest we would buy the Hello Kitty toaster she's been dying for... Continue Reading →

Winter Wonderland

What a winter preview! I'm trying to hold on to the fact that having 18 inches of snow and 20 degree temperatures in October is a great way to show us what still needs to be done with the camper to prepare for the "real" winter. While the storm itself was crazy, it did help... Continue Reading →

State of Confusion

I'm having an identity crisis of sorts. While the name of this little corner of cyberspace is "Confessions of an Internet G33k," lately it's feels more appropriate to call it, "Adventures in Camping." I'm happy to have been inspired to write entries on a regular basis again - nevertheless, I feel I'm veering away from... Continue Reading →

The Camping Life

Yes, we live in a camper...by choice. I don't mean to sound defensive, but after numerous reactions to our new living situation that have bordered on rude ("Oh, really? When do you think you'll be able to afford an apartment again?") I wanted to clear up the misconception we can't afford to do anything else.... Continue Reading →

Changes

Turn and face the strange... *grin* In July, we were living in a two-and-a-half bedroom, two bath apartment. We had about 1,000 square feet of living space, filled to the brim with items we've been toting around for the better part of two decades. Huge kitchen table we didn't eat at most nights because it... Continue Reading →

Perspective

We sure know how to pick our neighbors. *wince* Instead of the blog entry I had prepared, talking about the new lifestyle my family has chosen, I’ve written an account of the standoff at our new home. A few different news reports have come out about the events of Sunday, September 3rd (here, here and... Continue Reading →

Frozen

[NOTE - I wrote this almost three weeks ago, but I've been rewriting & second guessing ever since - time to post Frozen and be done with it already... *grin*] After feeling like I've been in a deep freeze for the better (or worse) part of a year, I think I'm beginning to thaw... I've... Continue Reading →

20 things to do by 2010

I'll explain more about this later, but for the moment, here is my list of 20 things to do by 2010 - 1. Visit America's Stonehenge. 2. Lose 20 pounds. 3. Finish NaNoWriMo for the third time in November 2009. 4. Learn to read Tarot cards without a book. 5. Buy some girl clothes. 6.... Continue Reading →

Please leave your message after the beep…

Coming soon to this space - all the old entries of "Confessions of an Internet G33k" from my former blog on the Portsmouth Herald website.  Then, who knows - maybe I'll be inspired to write some new ones... in my copious free time, of course...  *grin* Please leave your message after the beep... Coming soon... Continue Reading →

Dear Internet Geek

I have fans.I have people that I begged, blackmailed, or otherwise bothered into reading my blog and I'm happy to say that so far the report has been favorable. On that other forum I talked about in my last entry (Red Vs Blue), I've also gotten some positive feedback. However, I don't feel that I'm... Continue Reading →
