A Wandering Eyre

You have a serious debate with your husband over what order is the proper viewing order for Star Wars when it is time to introduce them to your children.
Do you go with the traditional viewing, Episodes 4,5,6,1,2,3?
Do you show them chronology and run the risk of the special effects of the newer ones shadowing the [...]

This not a new controversy, but it still has been bothering me. One of the Wee Bairn’s favorite books is Curious George Feeds the Animals. In this book, it says that George was a curious little monkey.
Any first year Anthropology student can tell you that all monkeys have tails and Curious George plainly has [...]

This has been a very different and interesting conference for me due to Mr. R and the Wee Bairn being with me in Chicago. I am very happy to have them here. In fact, I am certain that I would have been miserable without them.
Having them here has meant that I act more my age. [...]

In an effort to get ready for ALA, I turned on the Twitter widget that creates a post from my daily Tweets. Sadly, it went a bit haywire. I will try to fix it today, but there may be another strange post tomorrow.
The rumors are true. I am bringing Mr. Rochester and Baby Rochester aka [...]

And because the Wee Bairn is occupied I would like to take this moment to say:
Smallville may have jumped the shark last week. Giving Lana superpowers so her and Clark can go fight bad guys and, you know, super bone is about the silliest thing I have seen and there is some crazy crap on [...]

It has been a banner year for thankfulness at the Rochester household. Some things I am thankful for are simple and some are more dear, more complex. Here is a list of things this year has brought me.
Good coffee with real cream – My mother-in-law always drinks real cream in her coffee, and after [...]

Life amuses me.
For about the past 4 months I have agonized over my lack of time to do a few things:

Clean the entire house at once. It is now done in batches.
Read my RSS feeds on library news or any news for that matter.
Check my email everyday.
Write in this space or any space.
Take naps.
I worry [...]

I finally got my hands on the Angel: After the Fall: First Night graphic novel. It is a beautiful hardcover from IDW. I can not wait to devour it.
They were out of Serenity #2 and 3 of Better Days. The guy said they keep selling out so I had to put my name on a [...]

It is important to have a back-up plan when creating the plan you hope will work. Sometimes even the best laid plans go awry and then it is time to revamp, evaluate, call in the A-Team, or whatever is needed to keep the levy from breaking.
I recently gave birth in a Birth Center with a [...]

Today, I am packing up the car with animals, Wee Bairn, myself, and all the crap that must accompany us for a three day jaunt from home. Mr. Rochester will be following us later in the day. He has work and bachelor party festivities tonight. Sadly, I am fairly certain there will be no disreputable [...]
