I used to do a Monday Morning Love List. I fell into the habit when I’d had one too many crappy Mondays in a row, and needed a reminder of all the good bits in my life.
After a while I thought it was getting a little redundant. There were things that made the list over [...]

Yes, two posts in one day. Don’t get excited - this won’t be happening too often!
A couple of nights ago I decided it was time to move the yarn stash out of my dresser drawer. The clothes, after all, need somewhere to live, preferably where the furballs can’t cover them with contrasting cat fur. Plus, I’ve [...]

You know your morning’s off to a rough start when your brain decides that ” praise the lord, and pass the ammunition” are appropriate accompanying lyrics.

Well.
Ironhead and I are into week two of the torture the tri training, and it’s quietly becoming obvious how differently we’re experiencing this process.

A week ago or so I had a conversation with my beloved about magazines, wherein I gave my opinion of the new Victoria (tepid, but I’ve only read one issue and I’m giving them at least 3 to prove their worth), and rambled on passionately about Blueprint. I particularly loved their typography, and their creative use of parentheses [...]

So, anyone who actually knows me knows that I have a serious love for that whole 1950’s sex-kitten bombshell thing. Not that you’d be able to tell from hanging out with me or anything… (Shu – stop laughing!)

Hear that? It’s the slamming of the door on 2007. Seriously. The door is closed. Barricaded. Duct-taped. And just for good measure, I’m putting up yellow caution tape.
It wasn’t awful. I have a great many things to be grateful for. And I am, really.
But it wasn’t extraordinary.
And since that’s what I’m aiming for in 2008, [...]
