First, I once again missed my Blogiversary. 6 years, as of the 22nd. I can’t believe its been six years already. “Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana.” I’ve seen alot of blogs come and go. Some stayed for a very long time. Some are still here. Writing this blog changed my [...]

I had a stupid feeling tonight. This morning between 7:30 am and about 11:00 am I felt very very smart. Almost genius smart. No evidence to support this, but I had the genius “feeling” just the same.
That’s the feeling you have inside when when everything in your mind suddenly clicks together and it all makes [...]

I am. I couldn’t sleep tonight. I’ve been up since 1 AM watching reruns of Bones on Hulu.
I wanted to do a Christmas post. I wanted to talk about locally made truffles that I bought. I wanted to talk about seeing an old friend this weekend.
But I’m too tired and Christmas just killed me this [...]

I ate cookies for lunch yesterday, was poisoned by a beautiful Israeli woman, and the brakes on my car disintegrated on the way home.
Feel like I was run through an oatmeal machine.
Details to follow.

I took a quick to trip to the store tonight, thinking I could buy some white “chocolate” to make some raspberry truffles with (poor grammar, I know). As it turns out, the stores here don’t sell white “chocolate”. They sell white “morsels”.
Do you know what white “morsels” are? Palm kernel oil. They are morsels of [...]

I ran in the Albany Winterfest’s 5K last night. I never did get the hang of evening races. I never know how to time my meals, and when it starts getting dark, I start thinking about sleep.
My RP and I got there pretty early and spent the time deciding what to wear. I originally wore [...]

Two new chocolate-like things for today. One is real chocolate, the other is chocolate containing candy.
The Bis chocolate candy was given to me by someone who had come from Brazil, and I guess they bought them there. The language on the package looks like Portuguese. They are kind of like a Kit Kat bar only [...]

I learned today that not all blade razors are the same.
Some can cut you much worse than others.
Which is why I normally use an electric shaver.
Unless the batteries are dead.
Like today.

I had the chance to try out two of Amano’s newest chocolate bars. In the interest of full disclosure and in compliance with the FTC’s newest rules, I received these bars for free from a marketing company. Ofcourse, as anyone who still reads my blog knows, if something is awful I will freely say so. [...]

My RP and I headed out for our long run at the park. We had a few inches of snow here yesterday and it froze over night. I had forgotten my YakTrax, and my RP decided to skip wearing hers since the roads in the park looked mostly clear and melty. You [...]
