::Against All Odds:: Onesome- Against: Is there anything you are vehemently opposed to? Or just something that gets you up on your soapbox? I’m extremely pro-choice, anti-censorship, and anti-smoking in public places. I’ve put my body on the line for the first, the other two, well, sometimes I rant, and I make a point of [...]

To go along with my suggestion of sticking Starbucks in 24/7 Kinkos, I would like to add: Someone needs to create a telepathic library. As you enter, there would be a gentle scan of your brain. Maybe it’d be true telepathy, maybe more like Rowling’s legilemency, but the practical upshot would be that after you [...]

Well, more like three cents a page. We spent the evening at the local 24/7 Kinko’s copying loan files for submission and popping them into FedEx. If Kinko’s had a Starbucks inside, I’d be completely in love with the place, even if the copiers don’t have sorters. They’re so FAST. * * * * * [...]

So, we’ve got 18 more days of apartment life, and I’m fighting the nesting urge with a bat, and a credit card. Retail therapy works wonders, even if you only buy four shirts and a pair of pants. They gave me all the hangers, though, so I’ve got nothing to complain about. So far, we’ve [...]

So, in my Bravo-less life here in Casa Temporaria, I’m trying to find alternatives to reruns of The West Wing to watch at night. It hasn’t been easy, especially without the onscreen digital cable guide. But even though I don’t have Bravo right now, I do have Oxygen, and they’ve been running reruns of The [...]

Of course, no house is complete without a back yard to spend time in, so here are some pictures of that. Note that the pool has three fountains that spray across/into it (they’re on in the 2nd pool picture.)

The rest of the first floor includes: the dining room, the master bedroom, and bath, the laundry room, and a half bath. While Fuzzy took pictures of all of it, I see no reason to share the thrilling picture of the toilet in the half bath, or the plain white washer and dryer that are [...]

So, inside the house, you walk into the entry. Looking up, there’s a loft/bridge/thing that connects the upstairs bedroom, the right hand side of the bridge (viewed from the front doorway) has the guest room and the room with no specific purpose. The left side has the upstairs bathroom, and the rooms that will be [...]

We spent the morning at the house, with the inspector. We took pictures (the sellers are still living there so look past the stuff), and hereby share them. This is a graphic intensive entry. This is the front of the house, from straight on, and then from the corner (it’s a corner lot).
And by the way, everything in life is writable about if you have the outgoing guts to do it, and the imagination to improvise. The worst enemy to creativity is self-doubt.
