So, I've been working myself stupid (we're talking ten to twelve hour days here) for the last two weeks to get the shit done at the theatre and my other job so that I can take two weeks off to make my wedding dress in Colorado with my mom.

I woke up this morning with a mild cough, a sore throat, and minor chills. Dammit, now is not the time to ( Read more... )

My friend, sheafrotherdon posted this link to a Japanese website showing pictures of an Obama-doll. The Japanese are strange, but I'm not surprised that this doll exists. The website is great, though, you should check it out ( Read more... )

Today I got to experience the unparalleled joy of shoveling slush. It snowed yesterday, and it's supposed to snow tomorrow, but today it rained. Which meant that all the well-plowed roads were finally driveable in my little '86 Honda, but my driveway, which I shovel, and not always consistently, was a mess ( Read more... )

Yes, I know there was a winter storm warning, and we may have received some of the Blizzard they were warning the coastal counties about, but man. I can't tell you the number of times I've cleaned off the car in the last 48 hours, but it's a ridiculously high number.

Last night, Ben and I went to see Yes, Men. I'm going to give it a few days ( Read more... )
