I Do Not Debate

I discuss. I suppose I should start off by saying that I am not a conscientious, globally-informed person. I do not spend any of my free time scouring news boards or keeping my ear to the ground. The vast majority of the stories I receive...

Haul Post

Right, so finally I'm getting around to talking about what I got for the Christmas deal this year. Yup yup, two weeks into the new freaking year and I'm still back on that old thing. Yee-haw!

Pictures first, descant later. (Descant <-- desc <-- description) (Also, that IS my floor in the background. Tiled. Basement. Reason? Flood. Sometimes. Pain. In. The. Butt.)
