shake your cinabon-bon

I've spent altogether way too much time at the mall this week. It was mostly chile clothes shopping - adorable little outfits, complete with sandals and socks and floppy hats. I also bought a toy for the cat that was on clearance. That's about how…

i am a csi addict

csi comes on a hundred times a day. i know this now, and so does my tivo-type contraption. That's ok, because i can't get enough of the pseudo-scientific mumbo jumbo. It's good stuff. One thing I've learned: the mom did it. I don't know what…

god bless vicodin

The tooth hole itself hasn't hurt at all - it's the headaches that have gotten to me. I thought vicodin would make me sleepy... apparently it's more of an upper to my particular metabolism. The first day i managed to stay awake for 24 hours…

no toof

I lost a tooth today. Well, it's not lost - it's sitting on my counter in a little envelope. I had a toothache for a couple days - so i decided to visit a dentist. He yanked that sucker out. I could've had a root canal and crown - but that's 1500…

kitty and baby

i was uploading pictures to [flickr]() tonight - found this photo - i don't think i ever put it up on the chili site.

print problems

I really hate printers. I have a Color Laserjet 5m - quite dead. I replaced every piece inside it - figured out the board is bad. It thinks the parts are all bad, so it won't print. I also have a Lexmark black and white laser - didn't work for…

cold calling cucumber

yeah - it's been awhile. I've been busily building a company or something. I think. Well, it's coming together at: MassForLess.com Other than that, i've just been watching chili grow. He's running around like a maniac now. I noticed something…

human cost

throaty whisper

Ah - so my tonsils no longer feel like they're being constantly skewered by forks. I think that can be unconditionally called a ""Good Thing.tm"" i went to bowling with bloggers on saturday. Max kept trying to run up the stairs and out the…

to be in their shoes when they talk...

[A really great extract]() from Brenda Ueland that I ran across. There are some really beautiful ideas in this. Like: Now before going to a party, I just tell myself to listen with affection to anyone who talks to me, to be in their shoes when…

speaking of productivity

I finally got around to fixing a couple of annoying problems with this site: strange changing stylesheets on some pages email thing in comments made a mail to link (very bad, it's gone) i got rid of the stylesheet switcher - from now in it's…

where was i

ah, so christmas is over. but you probably already knew that. I had a quiet and altogether uneventful christmas. The only activity of the day was playing trivial pursuit with a couple friends that night. We won. I'm back at work today, for a…

slippery slope

So the other night i thought that i'd see if Max could get into his slide now. So I plopped him up and caught him as he slid down. I don't think i've ever seen a look of such extreme joy. Apparently I hadn't thought about the fact that i now…

say so

If two people who love each other let a single instant wedge itself between them, it grows – it becomes a month, a year, a century; it becomes too late. Jean Giraudoux

Dan Rather, CBS News Anchor: 1\. Given documents he thought were true (the facts were, the documents were not); 2\. Failed to thoroughly investigate the facts; 3\. Reported documents to the American people as true to make his case; 4\.…

daddyism

Max really likes to dance. Well, to house and tribal music at least. If I play some bob dylan or anything like that he'll sit on the floor confused. But when I was playing with winamps internet radio stations the other day - whenever i hit on some…

that about sums it up

One can generally say this about men: that they are ungrateful, fickle, simulators and deceivers, avoiders of danger, greedy for gain; and while you work for their good they are completely yours, offering you their blood, their property, their…
