Back to winter

thankfully! Apparently, we should see snow for around the next five days. Now if the idiots who live in Enterprise would learn how to drive AND SLOW DOWN, so they don’t have rollovers that our EMTs have to go take care of….

Yeah right. Never happen.

Getting the January Martha Stewart Living

is possible, I find – I emailed them regarding this. They “only” want $6.95 PLUS $2.00 shipping/handling AND it will take 8-10 weeks slow-boat-to-China mail…. *sigh*

So yeah, I’ll most likely go ahead and order it. AND I will be putting up a suggestion that they either make the recipe database searchable by issue date, OR they put up the entire issue the following month, available only to subscribers….

Online, magazines, and coming up empty

In this day and age, I simply assume EVERYTHING can be found online. And in most cases, that’s entirely true. However…. the fully January 2010 issue of Martha Stewart Living CANNOT be found on the site.

Why is this a problem? Because that issue had recipes in it I wanted, but didn’t have the dentist’s office copy even though they offered…. I didn’t have them copied because I figured the entire magazine would be online. I had resubscribed recently, so I thought if my subscription didn’t start with January (it didn’t….) I could log in to the site, and find it that way.

No. *sigh*

Happy Birthday to Outspoken Media!

Giving me laughs and making me think for a year now…. you go, girls!

Soon it will be spring

unfortunately. I don’t like spring, for a variety of good and sufficient reasons: allergies, it’s too warm, as soon as it gets to spring summer isn’t far off, allergies….
