I’m really trying to write more, and since OD has been resurrected so suddenly and unexpectedly, it’s made me realize how much I miss the days when I wrote a LOT. Days which were considerably bef...

…and tour of surrounding areas. I am starting to think I will never ever get done with this - we took the trip in MAY!!! Both prior trips I moaned about how long it was taking me to write up my t...

---

Part 1 of Port Isaac is back one entry, detailing our immense difficulty in actually finding Port Isaac thanks to the Google Maps GPS From Hell. Port Isaac was well worth the effort to find, thou...

---

I forgot to mention in my last entry how much I loved driving - it was kind of bizarre, how much I loved it. Even at the time, I was thinking it was a little weird that I was finding driving in E...

---

I started an entry about the gorgeous breathtaking Tintagel one back, but it’s so stunning that it needs two entries just for the pictures. Cornwall is just unbelievably beautiful. We walked all...

---

Two entries back is the first half of this day, in which we planned to go to Tintagel Castle and Port Isaac, but by happy accident ended in Padstow. Upon reflection I’m not sure why we decided to...

---

OMG I’m making an England Trip Entry! Finally. I see my last one was August 3. I am already breaking my Seriously Glacial Posting Times from the last trip, and not in a good way. And on a side n...

---

....and I am making an entry at 11 pm on a weeknight, because (a) I have decided to, as they so amusingly say in Peepshow, pull a sickie tomorrow. I need a mental health day!! And (b), I got a te...

---

And now, finally, Exeter Cathedral! It was founded in 1050, and the present building’s foundation was started in 1133 and finished in 1400. It is absolutely enormous, stunningly Gothic, and, to ...

---

Exeter is a cathedral city, to quote Wikipedia- and the cathedral is the big centerpiece. There is also the Historic Quay area along the river, which, sadly, we didn’t make it to, since our day w...

---

As I mentioned in an earlier entry, we had so many places we wanted to see in Cornwall that it would take us, oh, six months to even see a fraction of them. For our first full day, we decided we’...

---

To Bodmin! Of course, being Kim and I, we had, ummmm, issues finding the Budget where we were to pick up our rental car on Sunday morning. Well, not in finding it so much as getting TO it - it wa...

---

Since I’ve been back from England for, ummmmmm.....a month today, it’s about time I made an entry. Of course I’ve spent the last half hour trying to figure out why I can not get pictures from Fli...

---

OMG. Tomorrow I leave for England!!! I had firm intentions of making lots and lots of entries here before the Big Trip… hahahahahaha!!! I’ll just have to do a travelog when I get back, like I di...

---

Not that there’s much to update – other than whining about wanting to write more and not doing it! If I’d do it more often, I’d probably have a lot more to say. Right now I’m at work, of course, ...

---

It’s… it’s.... two entries in a hair less than three weeks!!!! Shocker!!! And of course I want to write but have nothing specific to say, so Currents it is. I’m back to having a slow spell at wor...

---

Why on earth do I wait so long between entries??!!?? I don’t know!! I miss it, I often vow I’ll start anew and write regularly.... then I vanish for, oh, six months. I see I made four entries in ...

---

Is severe boredom, apparently. We’re currently experiencing our annual biggest downtime phase at work, which is nice, but it’s also booooring. And I even have something I need to be working on – ...

---

So much for getting back into the habit of writing- a habit which I really haven’t been in since the OD days, but I keep hoping. And honestly, I am afraid the only reason I’m making an entry now ...

---

Trying to keep up my writing semi-streak; can’t be bothered with figuring out how to post any Charleston pictures via Flickr which seems to have lost the html link option; so what could be bette...

---

I did this one last year about this time, so think I’ll do it again. Always good to have a review of the year. And always good to get the new year off to a writing start. What did you do in 2015...

---

In keeping with my Always Avoid All Possible Social Interaction mindset, I am happy that we are (yet again) escaping to Charleston for Christmas. This is our newish tradition- Baker B was insisti...

---

Another couple of entries and I’ll have written more in the last week than I did the entire previous year. Well, slight exaggeration, but still I’m pleased that I didn’t write one entry and then ...

---

Well, he wasn’t dragged as much as poked and prodded into it. Yesterday we went to Verizon and I got a new iphone (a 6; happily the cheapest one was what I wanted) and he got my old 5C. Which is ...

---

Two entries?? In the same week??!!?? I haven’t made two entries in the same month since…well, since April, actually. I guess I won’t be doing that fun “first sentence from each month of the past ...
