HFCS: effika’s blog

I’ve lost that blogging bug lately. hmmm… perhaps to remedy this I should do some sort of “Who can blog every day for a month” thingy with peers. Anybody with a weblog want to challenge me?

I think this style works better. The other one (the tan-colored one) was never quite finished. Opinions?

The By Categories link up top works now!
So like Kerry lost. Suckage. You can read about the impact on America and the world elsewhere, I’m tired of it all. :-)
I’ve had a nasty sort of allergy + secondary infection most of this week. It started last Thursday before Halloween, and I finally [...]

Today I have eaten:
2 frozen waffles
1 turkey sandwhich on wheat with tomato, avocado, and cucumber
1 bag of BBQ Baked Lays
.5 can of green beans
1 Campbell’s Soup at Hand in Velvety Potato
1 3oz. bag of baby carrots
1 bowl of unsweetened apple sauce

If you wish to get on my good side, buy me a case of Hershey’s Nut Lovers chocolate bars. Or even something made with much higher quality ingredients. Almods, cashews, peanuts, and pecans all in one chocolate bar. Mmmmm.
The shower drain has been going pretty slowly lately, and if there’s one thing [...]

Our fridge went off for several hours yesterday, and mysteriously came back on today. Things are just falling apart and these appartments are only 20 years old! Of course, they didn’t buy anything of real quality to furnish it with– our freezer isn’t even frost-free. Follow-up on the shower drain– it took [...]

Since quackster is shutting down, all blogging will be done here for now. Always LJ to fall back on. Comment there and I’ll friend you. When I find a more permanent place again I’ll post it up there. Sorry for the short notice. :-(
Everything is good to go at effika.net now. [...]

Test!
Things are sorta-working. Still need to change some of the hard links around, and upload old enteries, but looks like things are good to go.
Everything is go! Mod_rewrite, you are a tricksy thing. Comment if you have any problems getting around, or find links that still point to effika.quackster.net, please.

…or give me death! Not really, maybe chocolate instead. I have a craving for cinnamon salt water taffy. Thanks, Sean. :-P Just had to inform me that he had some.
Having some trouble transferring the old comments over. But I should get it figured out soon. I have them all safe [...]

I need to move when the lease is up, if I can make it that long. I can handle Melissa but not Amber.

Today at work I was taking a spoon from one lab to the other to wash it, and was feeling rather like a pirate. So, as I stepped into the hallway, I brandished my spoon and exclaimed, “Avast ye!” to the emptiness. It was in fact not empty, so to the stares of [...]

This is late, but it’s still an entry!
TV Shows on DVD.com is your friend. I got caught up browsing it and then it was late…
So many TV shows I feel I should own, but so much money that I do not have. Hmmm… I should make up an Amazon wishlist and just send [...]

Dream 1
Apparently I liked to go swimming at lot at the appartment complex where Paul, Charles, and Ryan live, but there are roaming gangs of hoodlums who make everything that much harder.
One night, Paul offers to go driving around for the heck of it, and we are nearly hit by a school bus, which scares [...]

Tomato + ranch dressing + turkey + 7-grain honeywheat bread = marvelous.

I went to one of my favorite Chinese restaurants today with Paul and Charles. Ryan, thankfully, was at work. :-) It was fun to chat and catch up with Charles. I was bad, I ate so much that my stomache is pressing itself into other organs. But it’s soooooo good. [...]

We finally got a new fridge in the appartment! A more qualified maintenance person came to look at it today after it stopped working again. Turns out that the fan would freeze up due to frost, so the compressor wouldn’t run– allowing the fan to un-freeze and run safely. Unfortunately, this meant [...]

I’m worth $1,946,025.96! How much are you worth?

Driving at night on twisty backroads while it’s misty and foggy is not fun. But I am at the parent’s finally.
]]>

Being at the parents makes it a little tougher to post. But here’s what I did today:

+ I got up
+ Took a shower
+ Looked for Effikafood
+ Begged mom to bring me home something to eat
+ Mom brings home gnoccis from favorite Italian place
+ Talk with mom about what sorts of devious things she did [...]

I’m so out of it right now, a real post later. Even though this placeholder post is a bit late…

Returning back to my place tomorrow afternoon. Yay! So boring here.

I have a good excuse! My host was down.
I’ll find a camera and take that loser pic soon, Pat. :-P

I got 3 hours of sleep last night. It was not so much fun at school… or grocery shopping afterwards. Ryan continues to prove himself as somebody who I’m better off without. I’m considering staying up to tell Sean about it but I think I’m going to go to bed instead. [...]
