So I recently wrote about the various medications I’ve been taking for my back. (see: and one pill makes you small…)
I’ve discovered why I don’t tend to mix muscle relaxers and other pain medicines.
Both my naproxin and my cyclobenzaprine list drowsiness and dizziness as a side effect.  Taken alone, I can handle either pill.  Together… [...]

(I seem to be on a fashion kick… oh well… and no pun intended for this next entry…)
I lived in the city long enough to go through one winter, and in that short time I learned there is just something you seriously cannot do without.  Good boots.
Chances are, here in the Second City area, you [...]

Chances are you’ve already heard about steampunk by now.
Or, at least, maybe you’ve seen various steampunk things — such as this keyboard.
More and more people are jumping on board with how awesome a lot of this steampunk stuff is.  I mean, seriously, I know I would like to take my gen 1 17″ intel iMac [...]

Sunday night during our mall dinner, Mennogirl asked an interesting question…
What would High School Rini think of Present Day Rini?
A lot of time when I think about high school, and who I was in high school, it’s a huge sigh of relief that I’m not that person any more.  Not that there was anything absolutely [...]

But I offer you this…
Yes! Not-so-classic 80s new wave.  The Nobodys.
Why am I so attached to this video, nay, this band?

Back when I was just coming into this world, he was just getting a bit of recognition in the music [...]

It’s been a while since I’ve been on muscle relaxers for more than a few hours.
Typically, I’ll take one before or during some spasms.  Most of the time I’ll just sort of pass out for a few hours and when I wake up I feel a lot better.  With this new development of intense pain [...]

I woke up this morning to find that my kitchen floor had been replaced by mounds of shredded paper towel.
(I was actually kind of wondering when they were going to perform some sort of classic pet destruction. Some thing that could be captioned.)
These kittens don’t even play innocent. They were still attacking the [...]

this is a complete waste of a saturday night.
a completely disappointment.
all I’ve done today is get an x-ray of my neck taken at the hospital (I’ve been in a lot of pain this past week, especially the last three days)…
But tonight is just a massive void.
It seems everyone has plans… I could have. [...]

everything has been too serious here today…
so this is justifiable and called for in every way…
