Look Out, Vancouver

Monday, May 12th, 2008

Tomorrow, scud and I are getting our cute little butts onto a plane and flying to Seattle. Next step, we drive across the border to Vancouver to see what the noise is all about.

I think I have already planned the meals itinerary for the trip, so, you know. That’s good.

We’re just grabbing dinner and hitting [...]

Adventures In Selling Your Old Stuff

Sunday, May 11th, 2008

Man alive, can I ever work a yard sale. Everyone is saying I need some sort of job that relates to this. I convinced people to buy things they weren’t even considering, negotiated my ASS off, and even was able to (politely) say Hell to the No! to this group of people who would flood [...]

Stuff I Made # 4&5: Eggplant Edition

Friday, May 2nd, 2008

Earlier this week, my neighbor Sam called me all excited. “Grab your camera, go outside our apartment complex and check it out – they are filming the new Jim Carrey movie there! I can’t even get home, they have traffic stopped off and I’m going to the supermarket to kill time!”

For some reason, that makes me feel better about my failure.

Scattered

Wednesday, April 16th, 2008

Matt’s parents were here this past weekend. They are terrific people, and we all had a great time.

I have too many projects. Am feeling very scattered and am finding it impossible to focus. I do not like when I get like this – I tend to freeze up for a while before I’m able to [...]

Imprint

Tuesday, April 1st, 2008

On Saturday night, my friend Sarah and I co-hosted a terrific birthday party for her sister and Matt’s birthdays, which were last week smack next to each other.

As the night was winding down, I had one of those life moments that you know immediately will be burned in your brain forever.

The pub had a little [...]
