I just returned from cooking dinner for my neighbors. It was the first time I’d run amok in a full-sized kitchen for about two years, and it was pretty fun. I cooked Texas “spaghetti,” a concoction involving chili and fettucine, actually. It worked out rather well and boy, do I have leftovers. ;)

Looking back, it seems to have been a strange week. We did epic-sized laundry and my bike wouldn’t start each time we stopped and went somewhere else. We’ve determined that the battery is sick, not the alternator. It would be grim if the alternator went out. It’s grim enough to fork out $85 for a new battery.

DH has been working on some electronics projects and I’ve been writing and coding. We are out of synch; he pulls the night shift and I am burning the candle at both ends. ;) I have had a couple of sessions of manic writing that resulted in multiple articles, not to mention programming.

I finally launched Markeroni’s new Catalog after pulling an all-nighter and then breaking everything at the eleventh hour (these two things may have been related). I am too old for all-nighters, I conclude. But it was worth it. If you really want to know how much I did, read this forum post.

I can’t ride my bike, of course, which is a shame, because it’s lovely here now: about 70-80 degrees in the afternoon, with a real chill overnight and the mornings. We’ve had our first frost already. The temperature is just right.

Oh well. That’s about it for the week. I was nothing, if not prolific: here’s a list of articles I wrote last week.
