I got my hair cut today. And colored (there are no pictures yet, because I still have ring around the forehead). It was long overdue. So long, in fact, that when I saw my friend Brendan at The Nerdery a few weeks ago the first thing he asked me was why my hair was normal [...]

Things I’ve been doing instead of updating I Will Dare
Playing Plants vs. Zombies on Ziggy, my iPhone
Working
That’s it. It’s been dreadfully boring and mostly productive (except for the hours spent playing an addictive as cracker jacks video game). It’s been totally productive, which is why I have no words leftover. I’m hoping things will loosen up in the next week or so. And you [...]

Don’t know how to party
That sound you hear is the drool dripping from my lips as I stare slack-jawed at the TV. This afternoon I handed off a huge project. I was so happy to have it done I celebrated by feasting on D’Amicos Dried Cherry & Turkey salad while watching reruns of Roseanne. Who says I don’t know [...]

You take the good, you take the bad*
It’s snowing like a motherfucker** outside. Sure, sure it’s no DC snowmageddon, but it’s still snowing like hell. It’s supposed to snow for the next day and a half. After I white-knuckled it home from Sister #2’s last night (doing 45 in the 65 the entire 6.2 miles) I gave myself a mental high five [...]

Caught a cold, broke up with Wilco & wondering where the rock went
If I could travel back in time, I would zoom back to Friday and I would wrestle Ziggy from Nolan’s germ-covered, Tap Tap Revolution playing clutches. I would also go to bed at a decent time on Friday night and Saturday night. Also, I would drink more water than wine and I would eat some [...]

Malaise
I’m glad it’s not just me. Christa noticed it too. Last night, I made a crack about how the Internet was totally boring last week, myself included.
Perhaps it’s the last dregs of summer sucking the life out of everyone, lazing it up before school starts.
All I know is my brain is sludgy and on [...]

Children with powertools
Did I tell you about that headache I got on Thursday after going to IKEA and while having lunch with Melanie at that Indian place we love, a headache so bad I could only crawl into bed, whimper, and sleep until 4:30 and was still so shaky and out of it I skipped my first [...]

4th of July, y’all
Many men and women gave their lives so that I would have the freedom to eat charred animal flesh with a side of potato salad in the front yard of people I have known for 30 years. God Bless America!

Not so momentous
After something like wearing it for thirteen or fourteen years, I took my nosering out. I’m not exactly sure why, which is fitting because I’m not exactly sure why I got it pierced in the first place. I remember taking a shower one morning when I was twenty-three (or four) and deciding that day would [...]

How much does a decent TV cost anyway?
I have to buy a TV. The one that I currently own, a deluxe 19″ Fisher that was given to me by my former brother-in-law is slowly dying. It has these hideous dark lines constantly running through the picture, and because that’s not enough motion the picture likes to get a little shaky and wavy. [...]

Some really boring things you probably won’t care about
My weekend was consumed by three things: redesigning MN Reads, Rock & Roll Bookclub, and reading. It was all the things I love most in the world combined into one weekend, well except for the monkey sex with Matt Dillon. But you can’t always get every single thing you want, right?
The great thing about the [...]

On e-mail responses and exclamation points
Whenever I respond to e-mail (which isn’t often, I know), you should know that I am wearing a facial expression that is appropriate to what I’m writing. Like, if I’m excited and happy about the content of my response I will smile and nod at the screen, as though I were smiling and nodding at [...]

My mojo is missing
You should thank me. I just saved you from a really boring post about my sleeping habits and how much water I drink. Also, I had pork chops for dinner. Fuck. Starting a new job is sucking away all my mojo.
I come home with not a lot to say. Or maybe too much to [...]

My sentences ramble at great length, or too something to make sense
This will not be a post about how busy I am. However, you ought to know that being all-time queen WordTwist champion takes up a lot of time in ye olde schedule. As does “pumping it up for the bus” which is a dance that Liam and I do while at the bus stop. He [...]
