I got a renewal notice for this site today. And I’ve been thinking about it. I can’t afford paying $42 a month anymore for a site that doesn’t make me any money. I think the fact that The OC is gone, Stargate SG-1 is nearing completion, and Queer Eye is on its last legs doesn’t […]

I’m taking a break from work. I have a meeting tomorrow morning that I’m finishing up some designs for. And it looks like it’s raining outside. I love the rain. You know those kids who go stomping through the rain puddles just having fun and not caring about getting wet? Yeah, that was never me. […]
There’s this ad for Quizno’s with a chick on it that says “It’s not lacking any meat. And that’s what real women need” and then giggles this infectious little giggle. Infectious like the clap. I have made it my personal mission to never eat there. That ad is just so many shades of wrong. […]
“And to try to mislead children into believing that all cultures are worthy of respect is simply teaching them a falsehood.” —Phyllis Schafly, interviewed on In the Life Well said, Phyl. If you’re a bigoted, wrong-thinking dumbass. People scare the hell out of me some days. I’ve often wondered—if I was allowed to smack some […]
Have you ever been sitting in one position for a long time and then moved your leg in a way that your body deemed awkward and then suffered an extreme surge of pain leading you to think you dislocated something but then the extreme pain goes away but becomes a dull ache in your hip […]
For the past… nine hours at least I have been watching the outside disappear as the snow piles against my window, blocking my view. It’s just as well, I suppose, because the harsh reality is that I’m going to have to dig my car out again tomorrow to avoid getting towed. And I’m in denial […]
I can’t just retire this thing with such a grumpy rant, can I? It’s snowing again. Hopefully not as much as last time. On Monday I had to dig my car out. Not because we got so much snow, but because once the plows went through my car was surrounded by heavy compacted snow. Not […]
It’s currently snowing in the Twin Cities. Minnesota is supposed to get a large snowfall this weekend. In light of that, I went out this morning and bought supplies. Not survivalist or anything. I mean, flare guns and ammunition are pretty standard stuff. Now I’m hunkered down for the weekend. And it certainly has been […]
I woke up this morning and went to pet Ramona. She has a cat bed next to my pillow so she can look out the window. Insert cat lady jokes here and I will hurt you. Anyway I had to do one of those over-exaggerated eye rub dealies because there was a face looking back […]
“I’ve had enough of Rob and Amber. I think America may have also.” John Vito, I missed you. Except you’re already eliminated. Not fair. […]
I got a belated Valentine’s gift today. Quite unexpected. My boss was helping a guy at the counter when she came back and said he had a question for me. I recognized him—an older guy who always has me make his copies because he jokes that he’ll break the copier. And when I got up […]
I had a meeting today about my newest project: a website design for a local restaurant. A place I’ve eaten at for years. And on the way out they gave me free tasty food. Tasty tasty food. But it wasn’t until I got home that I realized that not only had they given me just […]
I finally got a chance to watch “Camp Reality”, thinking it might be worth it. There are a couple people on there that always make me laugh. So I watched the first few episodes. I think I finally have conclusive proof that the editors are the real stars of reality TV. They can make anyone […]
It’s been chaos in the Twin Cities the last few days. This is what happens when it snows and the plows don’t go out. I was a casualty. I got rear-ended today in the middle of downtown Minneapolis. Despite a nasty sounding crunch and a girly shriek from me upon impact, there appears to be […]
Super Bowl Sunday!!!!!!! Rawk on!!!!!!!!! So who’s playing anyway? I kid. I figured that out around 1 PM this afternoon. I did watch the game. Despite appearances (or… write-pearances) I do enjoy watching football. And have a decent grasp of the rules. And by decent I mean I think I know way more than I […]
I started writing something about how great it was that my heat’s been on all the time for the past few days. I was rather thrilled. But right now it’s 1 AM and it’s so hot in here that my laptop’s fan has been kicking on (which only happens on really hot summer days). Plus […]
It’s snowing here in lovely Uptown Minneapolis. It has been for a few hours. But it’s a nice gentle snow. It makes everything look pretty and makes my apartment feel cozier. Which helps, because last night it was so flippin’ cold in here I couldn’t stand it. So now I find myself in this languid […]
