My "before bed" routine consists of making sure all the windows and doors (including the heavy duty security ... http://www.mutedlunacy.net/in-her-own-mad-mind/living-in-a-state-of-fear/ Wednesday July 9, 2008 - 3:04pm - 3:49pm = 45 minutes. http://www.mutedlunacy.net/alone-time/july-2008/ Nothing! Sister dear decided to go to bingo by herself while mom and I were back east so no time for me this month. :( http://www.mutedlunacy.net/alone-time/june-2008/ I finally got my gravatar working properly. I couldn't figure out what was wrong until I realized it was just a setting here on my Wordpress installation. Okay so I feel stupid now, BUT IT'S FINALLY WORKING!!!!! http://www.mutedlunacy.net/useless-babble/my-gravatar/ Especially when it's done by family.

Well today is the day! In a few hours I'll be on a plane dodging thunderstorms all across the country. A check of the weather back there tells me that I'm going from 100+ temps and ... http://www.mutedlunacy.net/in-her-own-mad-mind/leaving-on-a-jet-plane/ As I posted earlier, when I upgraded my Wordpress to 2.5 the photo gallery plugin I was using wasn't compatible.
