You know those days where nothing particularly special happens but things are just good? When your life has been so full of ups, downs, and things to do that a simple morning with simple pleasures is just the thing to set you straight? To make you smile? To allow you to realize that you're you, … Continue reading I’m so vain I probably think this post is about me…
and then I used the boys bathroom…
You know those moments when you're rushing around? You're wearing high heels and you've been heading up the stairs and down the stairs. From room to room. Drinking coffee. Drinking water. Talking to people you've known for years. Gauging people you've just met. Checking the clock. Drinking coffee. Running into more people. Rushing down the … Continue reading and then I used the boys bathroom…
where I learn not to do a stupid thing…
I handled all the rah rah yay community stuff from my day at WordCamp Portland right away. Really right away. I was prompt. I needed to get all that sunny lovey stuff out before the bitter anti-social Cami decided to shove it all deep down inside. So I woke up early Sunday morning. Um.. okay. … Continue reading where I learn not to do a stupid thing…
the one with the amazing sense of community…
Yesterday was WordCamp Portland 2012. In its 5th iteration, at a much larger venue, and with many more attendees it managed to pull me right back to some of the magic of the first WordCamp Portland. 5 years ago I was just starting to use WordPress and attending and volunteering at an event such as … Continue reading the one with the amazing sense of community…
death to procrastination…
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…
work wardrobe…
When I went back to work last year for the first time in 10 years I had a moment of panic and excitement over a new work wardrobe. It was more like a total freakout. And actually preceded the actual getting of the job. It was while I was starting to look for work that the panic … Continue reading work wardrobe…
under construction…
July was a wild ride. And that should come as no surprise, July is never tame by any means, but this time around especially so. The very biggest reason for my wild July ride would be the move. Oh, did I forget to mention that here? Because it would pretty much be the only place … Continue reading under construction…
and we’re back to the poetry…
moments that feel like memories when something cold stops you catching a breath in your throat holding it uncomfortable until you can decide what it is torment or hope fear or relief something familiar but unexpected you can't know until it passes
