A mom with a movement disorder blogs about life with a typical daughter and a son with special needs including a left arm with a shrinking tumor. Both kids delight and challenge me everyday. "May you live in interesting times! Is a Chinese saying that can be considered both a blessing and a curse. I always live in interesting times. Lately I've tried to make this into a more of a recounting of the boons in my life aka the things I have to be thankful for. My essay "Gimp Geek" appears in. CCI) I've also t...

http://sysadvent.blogspot.com/2014/12/day-21-baking-delicious-resources-with.html
December 21, 2014. Day 21 - Baking Delicious Resources with Chef. Written by: Jennifer Davis ( @sigje. Edited by: Nathen Harvey ( @nathenharvey. Growing up, every Christmas time included the sweet smells of fresh baked cookies. The kitchen would get incredibly messy as we prepped a wide assortment from carefully frosted sugar cookies to peanut butter cookies. Holiday tins would be packed to the brim to share with neighbors and visiting friends. Installed (or use the Chef DK with a modified. Route “...

Amy pointed out something interesting yesterday about me. Probably - More Than One Membership To More Than One Club. 2010-08-11 04:55 pm (UTC). I think everyone needs to feel needed and useful. When things are going well for all of you, it may not be as obvious how much they need you. Obviously if there were a crisis or need of some kind, you would be there, but there will be weeks when the need isn't being affirmed in that way. Have you thought about volunteering, or some other kind of service? You don'...

Bitcoin is not evil: transitive delegation voting and voluntary microtaxation - mengwong. Bitcoin is not evil: transitive delegation voting and voluntary microtaxation. Laquo; previous entry. Jan 25th, 2014 02:48 am. Charlie Stross recently argued. That Bitcoin is evil because it enables transaction without taxation. Without taxation, society cannot afford public goods. So Bitcoin will cause the sky to fall and should be banned. But it cant be banned! You know what else cant be banned? Im proposing a new...

The Dread Vixen Alinsa. Sun, Jul. 19th, 2015, 06:19 pm. I made a thingy! Just to be a little different, here's a post that doesn't actually involve depression. I know, whoah. So, I made a book! No, I didn't write. A book (as that would require actual creativity, of which I have exactly none), but I did do all the work required to get. Enjoyed working on this with her, and having a project to work on really does good things for my mental health. The book, by the way, is A Rational Arrangement. Then on top...

Thoughts on Homelessness - Ravan's Rants
http://ravan.livejournal.com/560188.html
Miscellaneous mullings and minutiae from Ravan Asteris. Feb 17th, 2014 at 12:37 AM. But I will never forget, staring into a dingy bathroom mirror on a soon to be overpriced slum apartment (complete with roaches), telling myself I would never let myself get that desperate again. I already had too many men catcalling me on the streets, following me home from the bus, etc - how the fuck would I survive without even a car to lock myself into? How would I cook, what could I eat or drink? I don't go on marches...

lazy, well, web - ever so plucky

Lazy, well, web. Oct 27th, 2009 at 3:51 PM. For those not on Facebook, because I need all the help I can get- anyone have recommendations for a good salon/stylist? I want to get my hair cut, because it's mostly straight and blah, and want someone good because I'm direly afraid of getting a bad haircut and just chopping it all off again. My hair's past my shoulders, this is the longest it's been in years! Also, meant to do this nearly a month ago, but there's pictures. 3 comments Leave a comment.

so this hair thing - ever so plucky
http://aelfsciene.livejournal.com/108561.html
So this hair thing. Jun 18th, 2010 at 10:26 AM. Prompted by my complaints of "long hair is too much work to dye" and the subsequent comments on Facebook, I've been thinking about my hair, and the crazy colors thing I've been doing for the last 15 years (goodness, that's awhile). So now I've got this gorgeous long hair, and I love. It It's ridiculous and trite, but it makes me feel sexier than the short hair (guys tend to love long hair, what can I say? I'm not just my hair color, but my hair color is.
