Keratin-Destroying Laptop

Along with the old desktop, I also had the idea of cleaning my laptop. The screen had a ton of spots and smears, and just looked awful. Wiped it off with a slightly damp cloth, and the difference was fantastic. I imagined the fan inside of it also needed cleaning, too, though I was nervous at the prospect of opening up my laptop to do so. I'm not exactly the most brilliant when it comes to assembling or disassembling things. I'm amazed that my friend and I put together an entertainment center, because neither of us had a clue what we were doing.

The Tower of Filth

Some time ago, I went on an epic cleaning spree of my room. I was vacuuming, dusting, sorting through stuff... And during the process, I also had the idea to do some computer-related tasks I'd been contemplating for a long while. So buckle in and prepare for the ride, because it's going to be quite a tale.

Summoning Quail

I'm not a smart bird...

Everyone Knows It's Windy

So, where I live, we sometimes have windy days. So windy, in fact, that I think I can truly understand that passage in James Herriot's books. In Yorkshire, he said, they have what's called 'thin wind' or a 'lazy wind', so called because it can't be bothered to blow around you, but instead just blows straight through you. Cold weather here is ten times worse when the wind is fierce, let me tell you.

Weird Things You Say While Playing Sims

Let's face it, Sims is a weird game sometimes. Even weirder are the things we say while playing the game. I mean, in what other game can you question why someone's been wandering around in a towel for days, or bemoan the fact that Bob was abducted by aliens and now he's gained weight? Or announce that your toddler has hair floating a foot above their head? Today's post is about the weird things we say while playing Sims.

I have no idea how a wild horse wound up in the unrouteable area beyond the basement.
