Site Fixes & Links

Posted by Ami-chan on July 27, 2008

Much thanks to Becky who pointed out to me yesterday that my site wasn’t listing dates on the entries any more. A quick fix, but I hadn’t noticed despite looking at the thing several times a day some times.
Also the link for the artist that was being talked about yesterday is Broken Angel [...]

 Daily Grind

Posted by Ami-chan on July 26, 2008

I’m having a hard time waking up this morning, although the “task” of making chocolate truffles is helping out with that. We’re having a joint birthday celebration today, my friend’s birthday was last Sunday and mine is next Wednesday so we’re having a party for both of us.
It works only one set of cake, my [...]

 Four Foods on Friday

Posted by Ami-chan on July 25, 2008

Before I go to therapy I wanted to make sure and post my entry for the Four Foods on Friday meme, because otherwise I’ll get out of the habit like I did last time and I want to keep up with these things because it’s so neat to read everyone’s responses.
#1. When you need [...]

 Health and Beauty

Posted by Ami-chan on July 23, 2008

Several people have been surprised when they learn that I don’t use much in the way of beauty products. It’s getting where I don’t even use shampoo so much any more, and I don’t spend the money on special Proactiv acne cream, or foundation other make-ups, skin facials and all the rest of it. The [...]

 How I Got Over Barney and Super WHY

Posted by Ami-chan on

When we first moved to this house I figured I would let my son have a few times a day watching “PBS” we had basic cable, and I thought that it would help me find some pointers to ways to teach him more vocabulary. I was thinking that it would be “Sesame Street” or perhaps [...]

 Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog

Posted by Ami-chan on July 19, 2008

Speaking of Joss Whedon as we were the other day: Dollhouse I thought I would point out something else Whedon-y, which has been a favorite of my husband’s recently.
He was reminding me that I should watch it because soon they’re going to be taking down the most recent episodes to free up bandwidth, hopefully [...]

 Where is Matt?

Posted by Ami-chan on

A friend on PunkyMoms shared this video with the forum today, and I had to post it over here, because it’s just so awesome.

I would say I defy you to watch it and not cry, but I’m sure there are some people out there who are not as sappy as me. I just think [...]

 Music CDs and Memory

Posted by Ami-chan on July 18, 2008

My husband’s decided he’s going to take his vast CD collection and convert it to the computer and keep it either on flash memory or a USB flash drive. In the past few months we’ve lost a lot of CDs to the munchkin and the tile floor, and also to a soda spill that seeped [...]

 Four Foods on Friday

Posted by Ami-chan on

Look I remembered again! I’m hoping to become, once again, a regular participant in the Four Foods on Friday meme.
This weeks questions and answers are:
#1. Fruits and veggies. Do you prefer them peeled or not?
That really depends what it is. Not going to eat a banana or an orange unpeeled, but I usually [...]

 Therapy Today

Posted by Ami-chan on July 17, 2008

I’m a bit nervous about therapy today because I have a feeling we’re going to be unearthing some more deeply buried things. It’s complicated…and I think it might also be more nerve-wracking because my therapist was away last week so it’s the first time I’ve seen her in two weeks.
I was upset additionally this [...]
