I spent the weekend working hard. To be fair I played hard to0 and then I worked twice as hard to make up for the playtime. But it's summer. And it was the weekend. Sometimes you've got to do what you've got to do. So when I wasn't off galavanting with my friends and my … Continue reading death to procrastination…

People, meet Robo Overlord Squishbot 4000. Robo Overlord Squishbot 4000 meet the people. Robo Overlord Squishbot 4000, hence force known as Robo, stopped us in the park today by blocking our path with his enormously tiny robo body and insisted that he spend the duration of our bike ride in a pocket until he could … Continue reading because sometimes a girl needs to know how to procrastinate…
the weekend I spent in a bikini…
As I most certainly mentioned like 7 trillion times, I'm moving. Just moved. I'm in my new cozy little duplex and making myself right at home with a billion and 12 boxes full of stuff, half of which I will probably donate after I get it sorted out because I have no room for so … Continue reading the weekend I spent in a bikini…

I rarely run away. I never fall. I seem to observe. To talk. To walk. To... … Continue reading green means go…

But sometimes there just isn't an easy answer and we wind up with a long bunch of loosely associated words strung together with a greater meaning. In Portland there seems to be … Continue reading you are what you eat…
I feel silly, and bitchy, and mean…
There's a book written by Jamie Lee Curtis that K and I used to read together all the time when she was little called Today I feel silly: And Other Moods That Make My Day.

because I have a huge crush on technology…
Living in a time when so many of us can hold a world of knowledge in the palm of our hand -or shove it in our pocket or toss it in our purse- it's easy to lose sight of just how amazing the technology of today is. When I was a kid watching shows like … Continue reading because I have a huge crush on technology…
