As you may or may not have noticed, my header is under a bit of construction. Bear with me for a few days while Brad helps me (read: Brad does with my suggestions) get it just right. The old header was never designed to be the masthead for 3 years like it has been. Anyone […]
And I actually mean that. The Christmas funk is over and I’m launching myself with zeal into the new year. I don’t usually make New Year’s resolutions, I think they’re sort of dumb and no one keeps them anyway, but this year I’m making some, and I’m putting them here so that I have a […]
Hiya. I know going a week-ish without updating isn’t unusual for me, but I’m declaring a hiatus. Work has been the usual end-of-year crazy, and I’ve got a lot going on outside of work (well, not a lot, but what I have is REALLY time consuming). I’ll be back on the 1st, with a some […]
(a post in which I both talk about Jesus and cuss like a sailor. Sorry Matt) Normally Christmas is my favorite time of year. The decorations, the music, the beauty of the snow (in places where it actually does that) and the general atmosphere. I don’t stress over the shopping, I enjoy it. I love […]
– I’ve lost about 15 pounds or so in the last month. Randomly, the most notable losses have been from my fingers and my feet. My rings fly off if I shake my hand to hard (like the reflexive shaking you do when you slam your thumb in your desk drawer) and spin around on […]
We’ve been eagerly awaiting his arrival for a while now, as his mommy’s doctors expected him to come early. He finally made his debut on the 16th, a week late. I love love love the picture below- the look on Katie’s face blows me away:
I’m not a big myspacer really… I have one, and I check it once or twice a day, but mostly I use it to keep track of my cousins, people from high school, and a few people from my college years. The vast majority of my “Friends” list is people I know in real life. […]
This started out as a comment on Brad’s post about mortgaging your home to pay for Christmas. Now, I’m not judging anyone else’s holiday traditions, because there is a part of me that would love to get extravagant gifts for Christmas, but that’s just not how it works in my world. I probably spend $300-$350 […]
World AIDS Day has a huge significance for me. Not because of the experiences I’ve had or the people I’ve met on this day over the years. Not because I know people facing this disease head-on. But because it is the one day society seems to collectively raise their heads and acknowledge the damage this […]
For the last day of NaBloPoMo, I thought I’d do a sort of liveblogging thing- posting thoughts as they pop into my head. A lot of days in my head are like what I hope will take shape here- lots of little random tidbits that might make good posts but that I always feel are […]
