So, something that has recently been brought up to me again (and that I’d been contemplating for the past few years) is getting off my duff and investing in leatherworking tools. I’m slowly acquiring my own gear to complete (mostly) personal projects, but I also realize that I could do… Continue reading
I rarely get involved in politics; it’s a nasty business that turns even the most mild-mannered individual into a ranting lunatic at best. However, this time, I’m okay beating the hornet’s nest with my very big stick. When Justice Roberts penned the majority opinion for the recent landmark case Obergefell… Continue reading
My SCA sword brothers, House Clovenshield, love bacon… And when celebrating one of your sword brothers’ 4 years of cancer remission, why not go all out? So, I made them candied bacon. Makes 4 lbs. of Candied Bacon. The ingredients can be quartered if you’re only making 1 lb… But… Continue reading

Broken thumb from a Midna accident, Service Coordinator Training, Homework, Necessary car repairs. You name it, it’s going on. I also owe people some art once my thumb heals. Because,… Continue reading

I’ve struggled for the past month or so over how I wanted to reimage/rebrand the site since I basically was given a blank canvas to work from with losing all of the previous content. People either know me as Samii or Milan, or both, so why not use that to… Continue reading
So, roughly a week ago, all of my domain’s SQL databases went corrupt. Not quite sure how or why, but I’m just chalking it up to an instance of “Life Happens” and needing to learn to backup my personal/professional websites in addition to my club’s website (www.LaGarou.org) on a regular… Continue reading
