I decided to update my facebook profile yesterday, which meant the cool, but ultimately too wordy "favorite quotes" and "about me" sections had to leave. I haven't decided what I'll put instead, but I felt bad just deleting the old ones. So they will live on here ( Read more... )

I was this close to driving to church today, but I'm super glad I didn't. Biking in the winter really is awesome! I sat through the semi-boring traditional service, then stayed for the modern second one. Basically they took all the good christmas-related songs, but played the jazzy arrangements (my church has a band). It was toe-tappin', rockin' ( Read more... )

Whooo! I am done!
(almost)

I had some fun times with you last night, Henry. We really came together and got stuff done! I think I need some sleep now.

I don't know what to say! It's a fun time right now, for sure. Hanging out with Abby was even more fun than I'd expected.

Callie was there, no Abbie, but c'est la vie. They said they were making Wookie Cookies, but all I saw was a baking pan half full of soapy water. I assumed this was ( Read more... )

So I'm waiting for the light rail yesterday at Cedar-Riverside, just sitting in one of the heat booths, when a guy bikes right up to me, drops his bike on the floor with the rear wheel still spinning. "Hey blue eyes" he says. I can smell alcohol on his breath, and he starts rambling, asking me if he can have my ticket. For about 30 seconds, we back ( Read more... )

Hey guess what? I'm in The Wizard of Oz, and it opens tonight! Also appearing is Tom as the fabulous Tin Man. If you're free, you should all come see it ( Read more... )
