My favourite Post Secret each week tends to be one of the ones that tickles my funny bone.
This week it was not one of the funny ones.
The postcard to Frank that grabbed me most this week was one that hit dead-center home. (Read at left.)
Many years ago I fell in love with a man who [...]

 

I have no self control. I’m heading downstairs to watch Battlestar Galactica instead of going to bed. I hated that it was off for two weeks and I’m really hating that it’s the last season and I’m depressed because work is way down and TypePad which I’ve always loved is FUBAR and unlike their usual [...]

Wow.
Last night, just putting together onto a work days off grid for this summer for spouse, factoring in son’s Driver’s Education at the high school for the first half of summer ($350, which is actually less than what I thought the good teachers of this District would work for) and younger son’s monthly blood test [...]

Facebook Burnout?

Written by Caprica. Comments Off Posted in: Uncategorized
Tagged with , ,

The number of people visiting Facebook in the U.S. has been leveling off in the past few months. Why do you think this is? How often do you visit Facebook?
Never. I don’t belong to it. I checked once to see if any of my former classmates were on there and there wasn’t a single one–plus [...]

Some folks I know do blogging for pay.
I sometimes do, too.
At best, it’s very part time earnings which I’m allowed to make though I receive a small disability check due to early onset heart failure.
After several years went by and I improved from a very sad state to a state of “maintenance,” I wanted to [...]

For the past 8 days I did nothing really but be sick.
Today I:
Changed all the towels and started and finished a wash. Spouse folded whilst he watch teevee as I was back on the ‘puter by then. I made delicious Banana-berry smoothies for younger son and I and they came out perfectly! This has become [...]

Google’s might drove the shock bid

Microsoft wants to buy Yahoo in what analysts regard as a response to the seemingly unstoppable rise of Google.
The emergence of Google has been staggering for observers and threatening for established players in every market it has entered.
Microsoft’s response could level the playing field.
“This consolidates the marketplace down to [...]

Oh my goodness, I just about had a panic attack just now.
I’ve been installing things, mostly “widgets” on two WordPress blogs all day, tweaking things.
And then I started getting a Google pop-up about a navigational key that I needed to procure from the GOOG themselves. Out of curiosity I went to see if I could [...]

I couldn’t get what I needed for The Love You Make with the free host I was using so I moved from WordPress.COM to Wordpress (the proper name is WordPressMU(sp) or the like (I may have it backwards) but no one seems to want to call it that) this and my maplelakeontario site which I lost completelyin order [...]

  
This one above is slightly evil, slightly daring, and an undetermined amount of stupid.
Go see for yourself, there’s many more…           Post Secret

Jabberwocky
Woolgathering

I imagine most of you are too busy to have noticed my absence the last few days.
It really comes down to the fact that I’m stubborn as hell and won’t give up on something I want ‘till I’m thoroughly exhausted or every option known to humankind is.
The “something” to which I refer is switching my [...]

Reach

Tagged with , , , , , , ,

I’m  having a bugger of a time.
I want to add social booking marking widgets or better, an-all-in-one widget to my WordPress and I’ve looked and looked and I’m still ultimately at square one. Boo.
I feel like an ass. I’ve known forever that glancing knowledge of CSS was going to get to be mandatory minimum but I happily let [...]

Hey! It worked. I am happy, happy, happy!
I know I’m a bit behind the learning curve but I’m also not trained in any of this and just cobbling together what I can from where I can.
Though I’ve found some excellent resources, I’ve found way more bullshite than I could ever not wish for.
Honestly, it’s gets [...]
