On the verge of spontaneous combustion, woe is me

This is the forecast for Redding, CA, the first stop of our 10-day (did I mentioned I have 10 DAYS OFF? OMGsqueeeeeeee!) vacation that begins tomorrow. I could very well burst into flames when exiting the car. Obviously, I don’t do well in the heat, hence our decision to move to Seattle almost three years [...]

It’s been one week since you looked at me

Posted on June 23, 2008 | Category: Uncategorized | 13 Comments

Whoa. How did that happen? A whole week went by without an update to the blog! That’s got to be some kind of record for me. I wish I had some incredible excuse for the radio silence, but alas, I do not. I think I was just busy living life. So, what have I been [...]

It isn’t easy being green

I could not be persuaded to see The Happening this weekend, and judging by some more reviews and a couple comments from my readers, I am glad I didn’t give in. Instead, we went to an early showing of The Incredible Hulk, which paled in comparison to its early summer Marvel predecessor Iron Man in [...]

Even the trees walked in those f*ckin’ movies*

It was with great reluctance and hesitation that I added my name to the carpool match-making system at work yesterday. After much hemming and hawing, I figured it was worth a shot to see who I might be compatible with. Turns out, there are at least two people who live within the same vicinity as [...]

Like porn, only not

I admit it, I’m a sucker for anything cute. I found this link via Cute Overload yesterday. It’s a live, 24/7 web cam of a mother lion and her four witty-bitty baby cubs. I assume these adorable babies were just born at some zoo, but I can’t be sure, as the site’s all in Norwegian [...]

Junuary*

Ah, June. I’ve been looking forward to June for a long while now, as it signifies the official start of summer, the only season in Seattle that doesn’t make you want to gouge your own eyes out, and yet, this June so far, it’s been rainy and windy and cold. About a month ago on [...]

Every bird should get to fly

I recently mentioned that Roth and I mute the TV when commercials come on. Roth’s family does this, but my family does not, so the last time we visited my mom, everyone was so confused as to why there was no sound during the commercials. Was there something wrong with the TV? My god, why [...]

I get the joy of rediscovering you

I combed my archives this morning to see how much I’ve written about Journey in the last three and half years and came up with just one result. How can that be? Journey is definitely one of my all-time favorite bands, and yet, I’ve mentioned them only once before? For shame! Well. Here’s the thing. [...]

Wherein I wish I had a hidden camera installed in our house

While I was away last week, I suggested to Roth that he procure some “man food” and have himself a “man weekend.” Man food roughly translates to ribs, chicken wings, any kind of meat on the bone. Basically, the stuff I don’t like to eat because I am not a caveman. A man weekend, when [...]

Home, sweet rainsoaked home

This past week was, in a word, batshitcrazynuts. Last Wednesday I traveled to Los Angeles to set up my company’s booths (by myself, might I add) for a big industry trade show. I didn’t have to do anything that day (hence the mellow “oh, LA isn’t so bad after all” post), but Thursday is when [...]
