While I've been looking to write more, I found quite a few posts half-baked, half-done, half-started...and those are one I'm going to try and complete unless inspiration leaves me for good. This is one of them- started in 2017 sometime and languishing for three years in the drafts section of this blog. High time it... Continue Reading →
Of Nostalgia and Nosebleeds
Yesterday TO just semi-yelled out, "Oh darnit!" and I peeked out of the kitchen to see that the child had a nosebleed out of the blue! Since we are partial to him retaining his blood inside his body, Red and I rushed to see what the reason was. The child in question wasn't terribly worried... Continue Reading →
When I Turned Into A Princess…
And by that I don't mean the Snow Whitey kinds with bluebirds chirping all around me. I mean the Princess Vespa-kinds from Spaceballs. Take a look- So these are the times when I caught myself thinking of certain things and then doing a mental doubletake. While washing the dishes in the utility area today the... Continue Reading →
Typo Bloglet
Some mornings are just bloodthirsty and sadistic. Or maybe...it's a not-so-smart smartphone?
Movie Review: Godzilla King Of Monsters
There are few things people won't do for the sake of their children. Sitting through this movie falls in that category because this is a film that shouldn't have been made, IMHO. It's hackneyed and the special effects not quite so special barring in a few instances and the power of good over evil is... Continue Reading →
Semi Old Dog, Heap New Tricks

Am currently in the limbo between Windows and MAC OS. The lovable geeks in my life (and a few of the non-geeks) have praised the... Continue Reading →
Movie Review: Skyscraper
Will Sawyer is no John Maclane. And Skycraper is no Die Hard. But be as that may, it has the potential to be an entertaining movie despite having to live up to the rep of movies of the same ilk having scored BIG at the box office and becoming cult classics. There are mainly 3... Continue Reading →
Tech-Pottery
I love technology. It has no boundaries. The scope of it ranges from the little to the humongous. And that's really saying something. I have a sick kid at home who's been using his "I'm sick" status as a Get Out Of Jail card. I've been annoyed, short tempered and most desperately in need of... Continue Reading →
Tech-Savvy Woes
I've written earlier about the advent of Alexa in our lives. Red was in the market for good quality speakers and was considering buying Sonos and then suddenly got his head turned by the cute lil dot that now talks to us in a STRONG American accent and frequently gets our song choices wrong because...

Ring In The Madness…
There are times when one wants to thoroughly box Alexander Graham Bell's ears. True, he took communication to a previously unknown zenith but sometimes it's actually too much of a good thing. I remember there being 2 different landlines in my parents' house while my dad was still working and there were plenty of days... Continue Reading →
