{Day-to-Day}

I'm moving my blog.

I decided to move my blog to WordPress. I should be able to get the DNS configured so that moremadonnalessjesus.org points to the new blog. All the old entries will still be available at tineleyspice.org--until I decide to do something else with them. I'm beginning my sixth year of keeping an on-line journal. I had no idea I'd be doing it this long. When I compare the coding I need to do to work with this blog engine, which, understandably was end-of-lifed and replaced with something much better about five years ago, I just have to laugh at myself. WordPress is so much easier to use. Like many Santa Cruzans, I have a strong propensity toward a certain conservatism in vendors, at my own expense.

Captain

My dog Captain died last week. She was 17 and a half years old, which is old for dogs in general but many Jack Russells live as long as she did. She came into my family when I was 29 years old, a life-time ago. More...

Clonakilty

Thomas and I took one overnight trip away from Kenmare, a drive through the south of County Cork, and the seaside towns of Clonakilty and Kinsale. These are two places that our Irish friends go when they're on holiday, so we thought we'd try them as well. More...

Chapel Street

Friday, my friend Thomas called me from Dublin. He was walking home from the Panti Bar down Capel street, and since we were once at Panti Bar together and walked home down Capel street, he felt my presence so strongly he called me on his mobile, and I was able to walk home with him back to Pibs, tho I was 10,000 miles away. What a fantastic time it is to be alive, isn't it? More...
