One of those weeks

Stepford Mom — Wed, 08 Sep 2010 16:53:16 +0000

The weekend was busy and crazy on top of that due to the con, but all in all, it was a fun time. Part of my problem is that I was buzzing from being in a huge crowd most of the weekend and lack of sleep fueled some insane ideas. Not that the idea wasn’t [...]

Dragon Con 2010

Stepford Mom — Sat, 04 Sep 2010 10:44:12 +0000

I was trying to get my act together and post regularly, and of course I decided to do this while I’m going to be running around like a muppet and Dragon Con for the next few days. I’m going to get pics uploaded each night here, so go look at cool stuff instead of coming [...]

Good Hair Day

Stepford Mom — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 20:35:01 +0000

I love the fact that I found a stylist that I can let run wild with my hair. Danah over at Key Lime Pie is awesome and I can’t recommend her enough. I made a point of mentioning wanting to do something funky for Dragon Con and that’s what I got. It’s hard to get [...]

There’s a zombie on my desk

Stepford Mom — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 14:58:52 +0000

Nothing like an impulse buy. I’m a toy and gadget junkie, and I couldn’t help myself. I will say that I have wanted to pick up a copy of Plants vs Zombies for a while, and I kept putting it off because there’s always something else that’s more important, like popsicles. I’m off to the [...]

Blooming yarn

Stepford Mom — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 13:50:36 +0000

Got all but one skein steamed this morning. Hopefully the straggling one will come in today. I really should learn to count to two properly at some point, especially when ordering yarn skeins.

I should have known

Stepford Mom — Sun, 29 Aug 2010 11:46:25 +0000

I had a massive headache yesterday morning and couldn’t figure out why. I popped a couple Motrin and went on about my day. It was some point mid afternoon that I figured it out. We had stopped by the store on Friday and the kid was sent to retrieve sodas, we got home and I [...]

It’s just a game

Stepford Mom — Fri, 27 Aug 2010 17:19:51 +0000

Recently the husband and I started playing Lord of the Rings Online again. We had bought it back shortly after it’s original release and got really frustrated and gave up on it. Yes, things have changed, both in what we were looking for in a game, and the game itself. I’ve dropped my WoW subscription [...]

Testing new phone app

Stepford Mom — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 16:46:03 +0000

Trying to link from gallery. I think this pretty much sums up how I feel about trying to deal with images on my phone. All she wanted was a peaceful nap. In other brief news, I have a nice shiny new computer that has little media drives for all my odd bits of tech, so [...]

What does it take…

Stepford Mom — Thu, 26 Aug 2010 10:33:43 +0000

I’m really fed up with the sue happy corporate bullshit that fills the news. Some of it may be justified, but more often than not, it’s larger companies stomping out any potential innovation or creative working in the same general area. I’m waiting for someone to try and patent breathing at this point, and then [...]

Parenting…

Stepford Mom — Wed, 19 May 2010 00:24:40 +0000

There are things that we think about as parents, times in the future that may or may not occur that we plan for. We do everything we can to educate our kids and keep them safe but sometimes decisions our out of our hands, all we can do is deal with the results of the [...]
