At work, people are back to stuffing themselves into elevators. I absolutely hate it. That’s why if I’m the first one on, I always stand by the door and don’t move (yeah, I’m one of THOSE people) so I can get off if too many of those idiots get on after I do. If the doors open and there are more than 4 people in the car, I refuse to get on.

I Do Not

…but I do remember eating at a similar lunch counter at a local Phoenix apothecary—McCrary’s—in the mid 1960s with my mom.

Every Day It’s Something

I don’t know what’s going on with my hosting provider, but it seems every damn day something isn’t working. Today I can’t upload photos. I can’t FTP into the site. I can’t tell you how often I’ve gotten the dreaded Server Error message when attempting to access the site.

And don’t even get me started on their tech support…

For that reason, I’ll probably be moving hosts this weekend, so there may be a period this weekend when Voenix Rising is legitimately offline.
