Happy Karen Day (as my beautiful sister, Susie, put it)! Up until last night, I had a certain amount of apprehension about crossing over into the late-20s age bracket. Yes, I know 27 is techincally part of that but its more of the bud than the actual blossoming of the flower, in my little bubble.

Lemming!

My pal Rusty sends me a link to the new snazzy ChangeLog system, and I jump on it like a lemming going over a cliff. Rusty’s skill and techno prowess never cease to amaze me.
That being said, it’s past my bedtime, and tommow’s going to be a long day despite being Friday! More later!
Keep it […]

I think I am going to cancel my formal homepage. I really don’t update it as much as I should due to using MySpace, LJ, DA & Mixi. I don’t spend much money on it per year, but I still feel like I am wasting money. I am thinking about going back to cheap and […]

I did it. I finally managed to FIND a Nintendo DS Lite in Tottori. Granted, it was used, but used in Japan often means "damn close to brand spanking new". I’ve named my pastel blue Japanese DS Lite "Ramune", named after the popular lemon soda drink which I tried for the first time last weekend.
I’ve […]

My mondo 250Gb Japanese external hard drive: Compatible. My WACOM drawing tablet: Compatible. My Canon Pixas printer: Compatible. I want to make the switch…now.
The Japanese MacBooks not only have an English support center in Tokyo, but their computers come with an English keyboard option. In that same vein, the English keyboard models can also have […]

Gettin’ Wiki With It!

So, I have renewed my service with Revolution Hosting. Their service is great and the guys who run it are lovely. Unlike when I hosted VuuduuGrrl.com via Yahoo! Geocities, if I ever have billing problems or programming issues, Robert and Bilal have been so wonderful about helping me. I’ve been told that even their basic […]
