Proof

See? Told ya. Fortunately, there wasn’t an entire suitcase filled with them. Just a grocery bag. And they are quite tiny. Perfect for peeling the leaves off, sauteeing the hearts in butter, shallots and garlic and simmering in chicken stock until they’re nice and soft. Unfortunately, though, with the ‘chokes came some unwanted stowaways, also [...]
‘Choking on the random

My mom is coming into town today for a long weekend visit. When I talked to her last night to verify flights and whatnot, she asked me if she should bring anything. I said, a needle and some black thread, because there are several articles of clothing of mine that need some mending, and clearly, [...]

I just read somewhere that this week is Administrative Professionals Week. Technically, I am an Administrative Professional. But when I started my new job several weeks ago, I saw that my title was all kinds of different variations of the words Administrative and Assistant on several documents that I made a conscious decision to take [...]
Bowling, boweling … tomato, to-mah-to

We went bowling this weekend. Which should have been super-duper, oh-my-gawd, so-much-fun, and it was, for the most part, thanks to the company of Jaz, Ian, Lydia and Tiff. But poor Roth was feeling slightly under the weather. Basically, he was boweling this weekend. Heh. Apparently he caught some icky flu bug that made him [...]

I’ve decided that NetFlix is the new MySpace, and I’m actively recruiting “friends.” If you want to view my queue, and in turn, allow me to view yours, thus opening yourself up to shame, embarrassment and ridicule over your movie choices (Mom, why do you have Ice Princess slated to ship? Didya really want to [...]
Extreme Makeover: Blog Edition

Well, obviously, I’ve had some work done. Thanks to Alicat of Something So Clever, my boring Blah-gspot template is now a thing of the past. Over the course of several e-mails, Ali was able to take my hazy redesign idea and turn it into something bright and clear and so much better than anything I [...]

Firstly, I just need to put this on record somewhere, that Roth and I ate hot dogs and mac ‘n cheese (not together, cuz that would be really ghetto) for dinner tonight. We had spencer steak and steamed broccolini last night. Damn, we’re versatile. Or, white trash. Not sure yet. And lastly, why does Sierra [...]
Bullet points

I have no idea how to seamlessly weave all of this into one blog post, so here are some random bits from the last few days that should bring y’all up to date, and then some, all of which would normally be bullet-pointed, however, I’m having issues with Blogger, and I don’t feel like adding [...]
Two questions
Posted on April 13, 2006 | Category: Uncategorized | 9 Comments
Does anyone get as excited about their HALF birthday as I do? I’m not sure why, but as soon as April 13 rolls around every year, I start to feel a little twitterpated, thinking about my birthday on October 13. You’d think with my age fast approaching the dreaded 30s that I’d stop commemorating the [...]
The final countdown

Dear bangs, I thought you’d taken heed and listened to my plea last week to start behaving. Because you were so good this past weekend as we frolicked among the tulips. I mean, I even have photographic evidence that you’re capable of looking decent. But today? Today you’re up to old tricks, and even though [...]
