Uberlist 2005 Wrap-up

Posted by Moose  Published in Motivation

So, looked over this past year’s Uberlist 2005, and listed below is what I accomplished off the list (not bad, at 63 items done out of 105). Some of these were rather nebulous goals, but I felt like I met the ones listed below (there were some others that, while partially successful, did not make [...]

If I never hear another accordion…

Posted by Moose  Published in Neighbors, Sleep

Its four in the morning and I just had to call security to come break up the party next door. There’s loud Tejano music (or is it Norteño? I can’t tell, and frankly I don’t know that I really care) coming through the wall, loud enough for me to understand the lyrics (if I spoke [...]

Shipping Fun

Posted by Moose  Published in Stuff

Okay, so the stuff I ordered from Amazon three days ago, and that supposedly shipped out on Wednesday hasn’t arrived yet, but the AppleCare™ agreement for my iBook that I ordered at 5:57 pm last night is here. Riddle me that one, kiddies.

Consolidation & Reduction

Posted by Moose  Published in Credit, Finance, Motivation

Closed one card in its entirety today, lowered the interest rate on one of the remaining ones, and removed a third one from my wallet. I called the large servicer of my two main cards to dump the low-limit ($700) bank-I’m-not-with-any-more visa I had with them. Since I no longer have an account at said [...]

Posted by Moose  Published in Credit, Health

Equifax seems to have finally realized that I am, in fact, Moose II and not Moose, Sr., nor Moose III. I can’t get to the actual file yet – they’ve not yet combined the two – but I did go over the credit accounts in the duplicate account in my name and they were all [...]

11 Bottles of Booze on the Wall, 11 Bottles of Booze…

Posted by Moose  Published in Relationships

Of all the Christmas traditions my family has, I think the one I love the most is that Mom always makes stockings for us. When we were growing up it was usually candy, an orange, a toothbrush, maybe a little toy. As we got older there were variations on the theme – small umbrellas, different [...]

Visit Home

Posted by Moose  Published in Exercise, Law, Relationships, Sleep, Stuff

Been down at my parents’ place this weekend. Thus far the visit has gone well, and it’s been pleasant to see them, my brother and his family, and my aunt and her family. Folks have liked the stuff I brought down for them, and it’s just been a good time. I almost felt guilty in [...]

Only Tuesday?

Posted by Moose  Published in Exercise, Habits, Motivation, Sleep

Dear heavens, is it really only Tuesday? I head down to the Tidewater area this weekend to visit the parental units in their new semi-permanent digs in Great Bridge. Am headed down early because a) it’s easier to get leave, and b) they want to head off to Florida in the RV right after the [...]

Much goings on since the last post, and yet it feels like I don’t have a ton to report, either.
