  • Paging Dr. Carter

    I know I often joke about being seven years old, but today I have proof. Last night I went to sleep with an irritation at the front of my ear. The pain was eclipsed by my sunburned chest and butt, so I thought nothing of it. This morning I have swimmer’s ear. And because I…

  • Here.

    I did it. No, for real. There were times when I was pretty sure I was going to pass out from this redesign. Seriously. But, here it is. It’s all done. New forum. New design. Banner ads. New navigation (sorta). I must now resist the urge to never come near this site again.

  • Awkward Moments

    I share too much Eleanor is discussing Free To Be… You And Me on her site today, which makes me feel a bit better. You see, I recently spent $75 on eBay to acquire a pristine copy of the out-of-print video. I watched it when I was all Bronchy, and Eric didn’t seem to understand…
