TA DAAAAAA!

After many a beleaguered night and added gray hair (not because it was particularly hard, but because I was trying to teach myself how to do every single thing for the first time) I would like to announce that

is up! Come and see it! When you get there, don’t forget to update your [...]

Don’t be fooled by the rocks that I’ve got, I’m still, I’m still Rachel from the blog

Y’all, I promise I have a new improved Yestertime for you coming soon. I know it sounds like I’m just saying that, but it’s just taking a long time to get it set up. The catalyst behind hosting my own site instead of going through WordPress was using BlogHer Ads on my site. [...]

But I’m Doing It Anyway: A Haiku

Up ’til 1 AM.
Trying to host my own site.
A dumb idea.

I got you a little something

I am trying ultra hard not to fling myself with abandon onto this very couch I am sitting on and surrender to delicious, delicious sleep. There’s just TOO. MUCH. TO. DO.
But I am not going to bore you into the tedium of my to-do list (clean up all of Christmas, shop and pack for [...]

Limping towards the finish line with lots of CAPS LOCK

When I joined NaBloPoMo, I noticed that I had a harder time coming up with a post each day for a while. True, I already posted daily, but since I was now being watched and there were prizes on the line, my brain turned to oatmeal and I was incapable of stringing more than [...]

A better writer could probably link this hodge podge into a coherent post

1. My Snapshot Archive will soon be no more. This is because I am slowly approaching hull breach on my file space on WordPress, and need more room, so I am going to sign up for a Flickr account. You’ll like it, I promise! I can give my pictures catchy [...]
