If there ever was a chance for me to hatch a good conspiracy theory, this might be it.
Within an hour or two of my re-re-launch of AfroSquad.com with a slightly better placeholder/welcome back page, I lost all cable connectivity at the homestead. Government red flags triggered the moment I finished my upload? Yet […]

Hey, check it out!
AFROSQUAD.COM is live once again.
[ There may even be some actual content up there before the weekend’s over. ]
Due to my lack of total understanding about how some of the settings on my Tiny Dryer work, I left my whites tumbling on high heat for about 7 hours last night while I slept. They’d been wetter than usual when I put them in, and I fully expected to find some tiny & […]
Monday night, on the way to my birthday supper, I stopped for gas at a station near la casa de mi madre to fill up, as I knew I’d be in a rush when I left for my place later on.
Excerpts from Lost In Translation were on XM’s Cinemagic (I think the Death in Vegas […]
The Birthday Week is progressing very nicely. Thanks to all who have well-wished, gift-given, or done nice things for me in general!
The Birthday itself involved a great BBQ/donuts lunch with the work posse, a favorite homemade dinner at mom’s with an amazing caramel cake to follow, and home delivery of hot, fresh Krispy Kreme […]
I almost beat that roadblock of a level in Fire Emblem today at lunch after I polished off my leftover shrimp ‘n’ grits*. I was SO CLOSE, but when I pulled back my party to brace for one last charge, I left a key player too far forward, and a bastard of a swordsman […]

Yes, folks, that’s about a month’s worth of delicious, flat breakfasts, in garish, unholy flavors that Nature never intended. I love ‘em!
Spongebob Squarepants BubbleBerry (quite fruity, I’d assume)
Caramel Chocolate (compress a piece of cake and a Caramello into tart form = these)
Chocolate Chip […]
It’s inauguration time, and that means LICENSE RENEWAL for me.
I managed to get the tag phase taken care of yesterday afternoon with a little early departure from work. Having smrtly forgotten my checkbook, I had to improvise. One call ahead and a quick bank stop later, and I was ready. I got […]
I want to entertain– really I do.
I guess things just aren’t striking me as hi-larious quite as often as they do when it’s NOT freezing outside.
[ This is the part where Sophie tells me that it’s not really freezing outside here, and that it’s 5 times colder in IL, and that I’m a wuss. […]
I think I’ve started about 7 tasks today, and, aside from “eating lunch,” I haven’t completed a single one. This isn’t a boast– I don’t like this feeling at all. It hits me once in a while, though. Part of the reason is that I’m living internet-free at home for the time […]
