Birds Fly (Whisper to a Scream)
(Ah, song lyrics as blog post titles) Anyhow… so I am getting the house ready for Gene’s return tomorrow. I was in the bedroom, minding my own business when, for some reason I needed to walk down the hallway. And there stood Betty, our corgle, looking exceptionally proud. And next to her was something that…
Down with the sickness…
My name is Elaine and I have a BIG problem. So, a few months ago I bought this totally cute shirt from the Gap. The neck is a little too wide (I apparently have very petite shoulders – well, at least something on me is small). While out in search of clothing yesterday, I saw…
I’m no longer not really a waitress…
(This midday post brought to you by wi-fi I “liberated” from the sushi bar near the office. Note to self: get take out sushi from generous sushi bar while Gene is out of town) So. I am a creature of habit. I dislike change. You know what I do like? Yes! Sexy red toenails. Preferably…

Second, Install4Free.net, a group of bighearted computer geeks who – get this – install WordPress for free for clueless fools like me just because they love the…
ooh, or maybe not…
Oh well. Back to laineyd.wordpress.com. I have the big guns working on fixing the problem (or, at least I hope they are). Everything was working fine until I decided that I hadn’t installed the software correctly. I was probably right. Either there’s a step that I totally missed (I was promised themes if I did…
Looks like we made it…
HMMM. Turns out it’s not quite so freaking easy being legit. So I was talking to Gene this morning about buying my domain. He teasingly gave me crap about it and then told me, sure, go get yourself a fancy template. I go to work on this only to realize – DUH, Elaine! – I…
