Short Story: Efram's Child

"How is it you came to be here," Airity asked. "Oh, I've been many places. The places just sort of ... happen. I take them in, learn from them, and the place just moves on," Efram replied. "Don't you mean that you move on?" "No,"...

Stream of conciousness - #1

2008-04-25T03:33:40Z

I've been depressed the past few days -- unhappy with my career, a little lonesome since the move, etc. Rob assigned me the task of writing for an hour a day to help me vent. This is what came out. There is no order to it, there is no need to r...

Just in case you're interested, the web server is also back up and I've set up a more memory-friendly name through DynDNS. Check out the pictures of the new house at http://imeister.is-a-geek.net when you get the chance.

Yay, interweb!

2008-04-11T01:16:55Z

We finally got internet service on Monday, and I just got to rebuild the network last night. The web server is back up, and I finally got around to registering an easier-to-remember web address. The new page can be found at imeister.is-a-geek.ne...

We've Arrived

2008-04-06T16:42:01Z

We left Indy around 5:30pm on Friday. It was late, but couldn't be avoided. We forgot our plants, but nothing else I don't think. =( The trip was ... eventful. First, we picked up the tow dolly Friday afternoon. I asked them to hook it up fo...

Orders, Captain?

The time approaches! The end is nigh! We rent the truck this morning. Tomorrow, friends will come and help us load the myriad boxes, furniture and the piano. The day after, we leave. This week has been a little like watching the Millenium Fa...

It's Amaaaaazing!

2008-02-21T12:28:36Z

So, Adin regularly sends me the links of interesting articles he finds. I usually click the links, assess whether the article interests me, and move on. This one caught my attention. Rarely do I find "new" design ideas very innovative. Most of...

Have I mentioned lately that I HATE PACKING?

2008-02-11T22:45:09Z

I've moved a lot in my time. And I don't say that in the frivolous sense that I've moved several times. I've moved at least 20 times in my life. There is one constant: packing sucks. UNpacking is a joy. It's like Christmas in comparison, be...
