Time again for one of my big collection posts where I list down what’s happening in convenient bullet point form. This is the first weekend in a long time in which Melanie and I do not have any solid commitments. I think though that tomorrow, we’ll try to meet up with my Mom who is [...]

Not the website. But apparently things have been a bit dicey over at Facebook. My email that I use on Facebook had been culled and through interesting tricks, used to send emails to my contact list through my Gmail account.

But Mousie, thou art no thy lane, In proving foresight may be vain: The best laid schemes o’ mice an’ men Gang aft agley, An’ lea’e us nought but grief an’ pain, For promis’d joy! That, of course, was a little snippet from Robert Burns’ “To a Mouse”. The third line pretty much describes the [...]
