The Stars Are Once Again Aligned
Tuesday, January 26th, 2010So, I missed getting the plague that was going around the Misfit household.
But I did manage to overdo it over the weekend. I had the chance to go hang out with an old friend of mine and even though I was tired and should have taken a nap before I went, I didn’t. Had a [...]

Wednesday, January 20th, 2010The Plague, under the guise of a 24-hour stomach flu, is making the rounds in the house.

I’m generally able to push through it, though, and stay up until a decent bedtime hour. It’s a different kind of tired, too. I don’t have the utter mental and physical exhaustion [...]
