Surviving Mesothelioma

I thought I had mentioned before that I had discovered an interesting book called Surviving Mesothelioma which is written by Paul Kraus who is indeed a survivor of mesothelioma cancer. He and his family compiled a lot of information during his courses of treatment and they’re presented along with his story in his book. Out [...]

Avoid Bankers Life & Casualty

I just got a phone call offering me to come in for an interview two cities away, about a two hour commute for the “Bankers Life & Casualty” company. They wanted me to come in at 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday for an interview. However given my Mum was called in for a similar sounding thing [...]

New Laptop

I’ve been talking several times in the past few weeks and months about us getting a new laptop, and over the Thanksgiving weekend we were actually able to do that, thanks to an amazing deal from Office Depot. I’d been browsing around deals several places. A friend recommended to me that Best Buy had a [...]

Trekkie

I can’t really say I used to be a hardcore Trekkie because I don’t think it really ever went away it was just muted due to lack of funding and lack of decent Trek things going on. When we were in England I had a wall screen poster that looked like the layout of the [...]

Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog

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 [...]

I Will Not Be Broken

I’ve been meaning to talk about this book for several weeks now but my memory and life have kept getting in the way of my ability to properly form words. The book is called “I Will Not Be Broken: Five Steps to Overcoming a Life Crisis” and it’s written by a man called Jerry White, [...]

Project Wonderful

I’ve been trying out Project Wonderful which is an ad placing service that I’ve seen on Akashik: Battle of Angels a nifty comic site that I check out daily. I’ve had it on my tarot reading site for almost a week now and thought I would try adding a few spots on this site to [...]

Remember me talking about Akashic: Battle of Angels the comic? Well, they’re holding a contest at the moment to see if someone can add great dialogue to some of their comic panels. Have a go!
