The Internet Hates Me Lately

The Internet Hates Me Lately

Folks, our internet provider has been seriously on the fritz over the last few weeks.  I got back yesterday, and from 6 p.m. on the internet was on and off about every 30 seconds.  I’ve been through rounds of reboots, shut downs, counting to 30 seconds, phone calls with tech… Continue Reading The Internet Hates Me Lately

Where in the World is Velvet Verbosity

Where in the World is Velvet Verbosity

I’ve been a little weirdly hush hush about my whereabouts and why-for-abouts over the last week, even for me.  (I’ve been called out for being oddly private for a blogger.)   Anyway, many changes are a-brewing in my life and when I’m in that mode I need my own head-space.  I… Continue Reading Where in the World is Velvet Verbosity

100 Words on Snapped

I’m not sure exactly what about this challenge made me giggle internally, but every time I thought of the word snapped I imagined comical entries with funny twists at the end.  I imagined fictional characters telling off the person who made the mistake that broke the camel’s back, I imagined… Continue Reading 100 Words on Snapped

Internet, Meet Geeky-Sexy Perfection

When they put my term “geeky-sexy” in the dictionary some day, it will have a picture of Pete Cashmore, founder of Mashable.  I’m just sayin….le-sigh.

100 Words on Tragic

What a comical ride life is sometimes.  It took Herculean efforts to work with the cable company to get our office back online.  I’m so far behind in work now, AGAIN.  Sigh.  I need a vacation. Today I worked from a local cafe so that I could at least send… Continue Reading 100 Words on Tragic

That’ll Teach Me

That’ll Teach Me

Internet, about three hours after I posted yesterday, Charter communications went out in several states, including half of mine, and guess what?  I was in the half that was offline.   So I couldn’t get to the 100 Word roundup, and I couldn’t even post to tell you there was a… Continue Reading That’ll Teach Me
