		<title>What to do&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8230;with my sad little blog? It&#8217;s been so neglected. And here I am, writing the clichéd &#8220;oh my poor neglected blog&#8221; post too. I could track my goals for this year &#8211; lose some more weight, feed the troops better, reduce clutter. How to measure is the question &#8211; the more quantifiable the goal, the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Paleolithic Tech</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am a prisoner of my favorite toys, like a fly stuck in amber in a bad SF movie. I lovelovelove my Palm Centro, but Palm doesn&#8217;t make it any more, no one writes software for it any more, and none of the new groovy calendar- and contact-syncing web sites work with PalmOS any more.

		<title>School!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[School is back in session. The daughter is is eighth grade, and will, I hope, soon be in the jazz band. The jazz band rehearses at 7:00 a.m. Getting her there on time is going to be, um, interesting.  The boy has a new teacher, who looks like she&#8217;s 14 (everybody looks like he or [...]]]></description>

		<title>Arg, Summer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have a baaaaad attitude these days at work. No one tells me anything, I haven&#8217;t had any sort of a review in over a year, I have no direction, and I&#8217;m just bored. More interesting things to do at home. Like, right now, I&#8217;m about to go make some bread (yes, it&#8217;s July 1st, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Paradigm Shifts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The financial world is in turmoil.  Newspapers are going out of business all over the country. And now, get-out-the-vote phone banks are not working any more, as people switch to cell phones (or use caller ID to screen their calls!).]]></description>

		<title>Hello!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve started using Google Reader to follow my gadget/tech/personal finance blogs. Wow, has it cut down on the time it takes me to see what&#8217;s interesting! More time for Facebook (arg). This is just a crazy month so far, thankfully it&#8217;s almost over! I still have these things to do: Junior High School PTA Bylaw [...]]]></description>

		<title>Shopping &#8211; It&#8217;s Your Civic Duty!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I admit it &#8211; I am bad with money. Bad with budgets, bad with controlling impulse spending, and so on.  I will focus on fixing this in 2009. In light of that, I was greatly amused at the small print in the middle of the packaging for a small stocking-stuffer gift I got for Christmas. [...]]]></description>

		<title>Poor Little Blog&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been assimilated into the Borg, I mean Facebook. Yeah, that&#8217;s it. Pretty amazing how people you haven&#8217;t seen in umpty years pop out of the woodwork at you. Sort of like, um, here too. I also have a new cell phone. A Centro. Free from Verizon after I get their little debit card dealie. [...]]]></description>

		<title>I mean, come on!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My boss occasionally indicates that she is amused at the idea that I&#8217;m stressing out about something, usually a machine that is not doing what I think it should be doing at that exact minute, or something that has to be done fastfastfast (usually because she hasn&#8217;t mentioned it until the last minute), like today [...]]]></description>

		<title>Grumble grumble</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A ladder just fell on my face. My glasses are bent, and I imagine that tomorrow morning I will have a truly spectacular bruise on my left temple. Not to mention a really fun headache. I will post a photograph. (Charles was trying to climb up on the roof. The ladder wasn&#8217;t quite tall enough [...]]]></description>
