I've been eligible to vote in this country for 17 years and 8 months. Writing that, I realize now that on my next birthday I will have been a voter just as long as I was a kid. That's a huge milestone, one I never considered. Perhaps I didn't consider it because voting is not … Continue reading the one with the politics…
goodbye for now, fair shoes…
School is back in session, the morning has a tiny nip on the breeze, and the season is starting to change. So today when I had the chance to run out to lunch I skipped the flats and ignored my sneakers in favor of the 5 1/2" cork and black leather peep-toe wedges I picked … Continue reading goodbye for now, fair shoes…
the occam’s razor approach to cat shit…
It's taken me a week or so to come to terms with this. To mention it. To anyone except my kid that is. Why? because I don't like to talk about fecal matter. Really, who does? But this is a real world. And as the saying goes, shit happens. This is the story of one … Continue reading the occam’s razor approach to cat shit…
I’m so vain I probably think this post is about me…
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…
because sometimes a girl needs to know how to procrastinate…
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…
