Tonight I’m not so terribly inspired to say much. I’m still fighting B for back pain, though it is improving. I’m getting ready to put up an ad on our local craig’s list for a trainer, I think I need one to get me going –and someone who can keep …
Ok, the collective term for cats is clowder. I just had to say that. Clowder of cats. not a herd but a clowder. Guess that’s like a mope of goths or a stomp of rivets. Â That said Today’s word is Charientism <–click on it to hear the pronunciation. I …
Bibliophagist: One who devours books, literally or figuratively. http://www.forvo.com/word/bibliophagist/ <–How to pronounce. I read. A lot and very fast. I started reading at about 4 and I never stopped. I read so fast I have to make myself slow down sometimes to savor a very good read. Like  The Wool …
Hello I’m Jyllian and I’m a cataholic–or more properly an Ailurophile. I’ve loved cats for as long as I can remember. I like dogs too, they are nice but cats have always been my favorite animal. They are independent and very much themselves–which makes it meaningful (at least to me) …
 A to Z Blogging Challenge Well here we go again. I am going to give another blogging challenge a try. Why? I failed the last one quite miserably. And the reverb/resound whatever the heck that was didn’t work very well either. I have always made it through Nablopomo though. …
Prompt A: Talk about a time when you intervened. What prompted you? Did you regret it? Â I have stepped in front of the swinging hand, the thrown punch. I have called for rescue as a child from drunkeness. I have threatened a firestorm of retribution on what was done …
Day 10: Tuesday, March 27, 2012 Prompt A: Talk about breaking someone else’s heart, or having your own heart broken. I had to leave. It was time. He was never going the direction I was going, though he tried. I was never going the direction he was going, though I tried. …
Prompt A: Talk about the ways in which your body is awesome. Â Well first of all I suck. I do and I don’t I guess. We had a lot planned in March and did all of it. I wanted to do this project, very much. But I also wanted …
Day 2: Thursday, March 15, 2012 Prompt A: When did you realise you were a grown up? What did this mean for you? Shock to the system? Mourning of halcyon younger days? Or the embracing of the knowledge that you can do all the cool stuff adults do: drink wine, go …
Prompt A: Who are you? Come out from behind that curtain and show yourself. Â I am the Bean’s mom. I remember when that wouldn’t have been first, but I am happy it is now. She’s the best thing I’ve ever done and I feel lucky every day that out …
Well, I’m betting this one is going to work. For $40 for a freaking blogging client I’m expecting it to write my damn posts for me. Anyway, tomorrow I will be getting setup for the scintilla project. I should do it today, but I’ve instead decided to have a massive …
This isn’t supposed to work in Mac Lion. Let us see if that is the case. And now for a picture Well that didin’t seem to work Powered by Qumana
oh dear god. It’s been too long again. Do I have good excuses, of course I do. Some of them are quite silly. My desk where I do #wineparty and such isn’t comfortable. I have this amazing table –well it’s beautiful, from my mom’s vast antique collection but it doesn’t …
We took a walk. The things you told me were like the things I told you. But then that gift and truth for me were not the same not for you. Did you lie because of love or expediency? What was your small lie lived forever …
I have two weeks until Max Raabe in Dallas. I’m guessing nearly everyone is over hearing how crazed I am about he and his orchestra. And This Good god, I love them both. I love Nena. I always have. I have NEVER EVER listened …
So I had an episode the other day or month. I’ve been meaning to blog again for awhile but the new jorb and the tension with proving myself all over again got in the way. Before that it was just coming down from the job I had before. I was …
I’ve been gone awhile. The year ended roughly for me but more roughly for my family. My husband’s father died and his current wife neglected to tell him There is SO MUCH I’d like to say about that, that Iâ€d like to DO about that. But we’ll just leave the …
