still kicking

2009-11-29T22:16:07Z

In case it isn't blatantly obvious, I haven't felt much like blogging lately. I've got a lot going on right now, and have been feeling generally introspective and (subsequently) down. Some might say this is the perfect time to spew my guts onto ...

creative writing 101

2009-11-24T04:10:08Z

I probably wouldn't consider, ordinarily, entering a creative writing contest sponsored Slate, but I read today that they're asking people to compose a sentence in the style of Sarah Palin. So I don't why I wouldn't enter. I've got an ace in the...

249 posts in 47 weeks

2009-11-22T20:37:01Z

Man, I’ve been swamped lately. I never thought the 104 Posts in 52 Weeks (104P52W) Challenge would be, well, a challenge. Hell, I hit 104 posts back in May. Yet, here we are. I considered composing a lazy list covering the past two weeks. I w...

a technicality

2009-11-21T20:30:15Z

As strange as it may seem, if we don't post today we will default in the 104 Posts in 52 Weeks (104P52W) Challenge. (Not that Jodi or Dabysan would ever notice, but that's beside the point. Pride is on the line, and we've come too far to lose no...

I had been kicking myself for not trying to extend my stay in the Emerald City through the weekend, but I guess things have a way of working out for the best whether we realize it or not. M-----l headed west the day after I came home, and he and ...

sleepy in seattle

2009-11-12T05:27:53Z

I'm in Seattle. It's the first time I have been here. I like it so far, but I'm getting very tired. I've had a lot going on over the past week and it's all starting to catch up to me. I'm going to go to sleep now. I'm glad I flew across the c...

2009-11-08T18:30:26Z

Boy, for a couple of teetotaling vegetarians, CarrieNation and Dabysan throw one hell of a party. I mean, I knew it was going to be a good time, but yesterday went above and beyond my highest expectations. I'm so unbelievably happy for the both ...

remembrance of things past

2009-11-06T02:05:21Z

I have other stuff I should be doing right now. But I made the mistake of turning on my computer when I got home. Then I re-read Dabysan's excellent post about getting married this weekend. Then I started thinking about my toast, which I though...

start spreading the news

2009-11-05T14:39:22Z

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Suck it, Phillies. PS. Jerry Hairston, Jr. got into the game last night. Is that why the Yanks won? I'm saying yes. Thanks, M-----l. Jerry is good luck.

trial by fire

2009-11-04T16:13:01Z

Jeez, I'm only one day into this "no pictures, no video" thing and I'm already being tested. The discovery on Youtube of the infomercial for the Weezer Snuggie is not helping. Must.... not.... link....
