Dudes, my blog is six. I wrote a big ol’ retrospective post last year, so I figure it would be silly to do it again, just one year later. In terms of blogging, it’s been a rocky year, with me being too busy to post much while I was in Arabic Camp, then me posting […]

Last night I had a dream that I was having a cup of coffee with a friend and it was a quiet moment where neither of us was talking and I suddenly put my head down on the table and started laughing. “What?” my friend asked.
“Oh,” I said, sitting up and wiping hilarity-induced tears from […]

Oh, boys and girls, it has been such a long time since I learned things from Cosmo. Last October, to be exact. I don’t know how I’ve managed to go so long without availing myself of the wisdom that Cosmo has to offer, but I decided it was time to fix that problem. So I […]

As I’m sure I’ve mentioned a time or two before, I’m doing this self-portrait-a-day project for a year. I’m halfway done (hurrah!), and excited about that, but the point is that because I’m doing this project, I take a lot of pictures of myself, most of which are promptly deleted forever, but unless I have […]

Take heart. Flickr only allows maximum 90-second uploads.

Don’t lie. I TOTALLY BEAT YOU.

A love list? Sure. Accentuate the positive, that’s what I always say. Ahem.

I love my friends. I love the conversations that begin with “Remember that time when we…” and end because everybody’s laughing so hard they can’t breathe and they’re wiping tears away from their eyes. I love chance and meeting up unexpectedly and […]

It’s Composition Challenge time. I love Composition Challenge time.
I am uncertain.

It’s official: there’s going to be a New Kids on the Block reunion. The outer me is sort of speechless about it, but I’m fairly certain that my inner pre-teen is jumping up and down.
Back when I was 10 (which was 1989, if you are keeping track), I seriously believed that New Kids on […]
