Today I was thinking about how I have updated my “blogroll” (as wordpress calls it) and you may not have noticed. Now, some of the links are there just because it’s an easy way for me not to have to worry about forgetting these MOST IMPORTANT links (not that I couldn’t find them again, I’m [...]

I am out of the house
Posted in Uncategorized on June 17, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I managed to get to work today and I did complete one knitting project. That’s it though.
Seriously, I don’t even care. I am so glad to be at work today that everything else pales in comparison! Hooray!

So I have been quarantined in my own house since Friday night. It’s miserable. I have the flu, which means extreme tiredness, muscle aches, sore throat, coughing, runny nose (and resultant sneezing…not because of the flu, but because I sneeze whenever my nose runs) and fever. Being stuck inside might seem like an impromptu stay-cation [...]
Genius

You may not know it, but I am a complete nerd about NBC’s show The Office. For fellow fans of the show, I am sharing a video that was brought to my attention. Two thoughts: a) That is some amazingly seamless editing! and b) How is Ed Helms always on key? Does he carry around [...]
Some thoughts
Posted in Uncategorized on February 24, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
It’s crazy busy in life right now (leading to a decrease in rate of posting). There are ramifications for this. Among them:
*I don’t sleep much these days. When I do, it isn’t well.
*I know I’m stressed out because the sound of my phone ringing makes my body tense up, so I’m keeping it on vibrate [...]
On the Up and Up

I know it’s incredibly predictable and prosaic to use the turn of the calendar year as a reflective tool, but apparently I am exactly the type of person to use this mirror. I cannot say what impulse from which others might suffer, but I’ve discovered there are a few different causes for my philosophizing. And [...]
Of Mice and Men

Okay, I’m renaming it: Of Mice and Girl.
In the past two days, I have learned something about myself that I sort of suspected was true but hadn’t confirmed it: I am NOT a “mouse person”. Okay, so if you’ve seen me “in the flesh” you know I don’t have a tail or mouse ears or [...]

I have not had much success, of late, posting. My mind revealed to me the astonishing reason for that: I’m a reader, not a writer. (Are you surprised?) I spend more time reading blogs I love, researching things which interest me and growing my brain than I’ll ever spend thinking about a blog post, even [...]
A solution?
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged being yourself on September 19, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Guys, I’ve figured it out. What, you ask? Why I don’t write blogs the way I want to: funny/witty/amusing/quippy blogs. For a while I was confused and thought that it was simply because my personal writing style didn’t fit that goal. Not that it isn’t true. Totally is. The real problem, though, is that I’m not [...]
Forgive and Forget

I’m not sure I can recall an exact moment that lead to this, but for the past couple of weeks I’ve been ruminating about forgiveness. The considerable amount of time I’ve spent mulling hasn’t actually yielded any new thoughts on my own part, but I have been indebted, over these weeks, to a variety of [...]
