This morning when I was getting her dressed, my daughter told me “I tinkle in my pull-up.”   Me: “Where are you supposed to go potty?” Her: “In my pull-up.” Me: “No, you’re supposed to go in your big girl potty.  Where are you supposed to go potty?”  Her: “In my pull up” And I wonder […]

I promised a dear friend I would try to get to sleep early tonight.  I don’t know what it is, I just can’t relax.  I’m tired, exhausted even.  I really should be asleep.  Instead I’m here with my mind going in circles. I know that some of my posts have seemed truncated lately.  That’s because […]

Why is it that when my son doesn’t get his own way he just goes in and does what he wants anyway.  He managed to break my cd-r/rw drive.  It makes me mad that he messed with my computer while I was at work today, and he just brushed it off.  He knows what he did, but […]

Ok, so that’s not the whole message you get when you miss an attack when MUDding, but the sentiment is there.  I’ve fallen on my face with trying to do too much, but all it’s done is get me sick.  Maybe I’m just having trouble thinking because I can’t breathe, but I can’t sleep either […]

Well, tonight a second person told me they found my blog when looking for the new address for Apoc. So, for any of you Apoc MUDders out there, yes this is Shar, and the address for ApocFE (Apocalypse Forever) is apocmud.usurped.com 4000.  I’d say you know the rest. See you there 🙂 After several questions […]

Last night I decided to log onto the MUD I used to play.  For those who don’t know, a MUD or a Multi User Dungeon is the precursor to the MMORPG’s that many people play now.  It is a text based role playing game.   The MUD I used to play was Apocalypse IV, later to become […]

I’ve been thinking about my father today. It would have been his 85th birthday. Wow, that just doesn’t seem possible that it has been 4.5 years since he died. Whereever you are, daddy, I love you and miss you.
