Yada, yada, yada, I’m really tired today

I’ve been incredibly tired all week. I wish it were for some super sexy reason, like I’ve been burning the midnight oil working on some fabulous top secret project, but no. I think it’s because I didn’t get sufficient downtime and rest last weekend, and that feeling followed me into the work week, which has [...]
I call her red

On a scale of 1 to 10, how Angela Chase am I today? With the crazily printed sundress over the long-sleeved top and the leggings and ballet flats? I swear, this outfit looked a lot cooler in my head before I put it on.
For the record

I’m not really that excited about the new NBC show Quarterlife. Everyone keeps asking me if I’m pumped about it, you know, because of my blog’s name and because it’s about a blogger, but honestly, it looks kind of lame. I may check it out online, but I’m not going to disrupt my regular TV [...]
But I’ve reason to believe, we both will be received

Ranch dressing took me to Savannah last year. This year it’s taking me to Memphis. That’s right, I’m going to Graceland, Graceland. Memphis, Tennessee. Oh yeah, I’ll be walking with my feet 10 feet off of Beale. Um … *wracks brain for another lyric about Memphis, draws a blank* … So yeah, that’s where I’m [...]
Baby’s got blue skies up ahead

The weather in Seattle has been unseasonably and uncharacteristically gorgeous the last week and half. It’s February, and we’re experiencing mid-50s, bright sun and clear, blue skies. Every day I think the weather is going to return to its normal miserable self, but so far, it hasn’t. I just want to soak it all in, [...]
Will someone get this big walking carpet out of my way?

It must be the journalist in me that felt compelled to conduct a second interview for Neil’s Great Interview Experiment. Poor Claire elected to participate, but her designated interviewer was a no-show, so I happily jumped in to play the role of question-asker extraordinaire. I had never read Claire’s blog before, but turns out we [...]
The church of what’s happening now

Two things. First, this e-mail from Roth cracked me up: Something about the phrase, “my crotch was 12 inches long” is very disturbing to me. To which I replied: It was disturbing to discover that whilst straddling a tape measure. Nothing dignified about having to measure your crotch, that’s for sure. It does bring up [...]

Roth and I have been watching Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles on Monday nights. Initially I was reluctant to tune in, because seriously? How good could this show be, with an emo John Connor at the helm (emo reference blatantly stolen from my good friend Ian)? Well, it’s not great, and yet, we’re still watching. [...]
Sew far, sew good

There’s really not much to say about my first sewing class, because as to be expected, it’s not like I was putting the final embellishments on some couture gown by the end of the two and a half hours. Instead, the instructor taught the six of us (interestingly, all women, right around the same age [...]
Every dog has its day

Ever since Uno won the Super Bowl of dog shows last weekend, people have been lavishing Sierra with extra, unsolicited attention,* as if she somehow had anything to do with a beagle taking the top prize at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. I mean, yes, she is a beagle, and beagles are cute, but [...]

- I know it's the top news story in Seattle but I cannot bear to watch coverage of what happened to the Powell boys today. So, so sad.
