I really am still alive!
I have been away too long. I'm sorry.
Since the holidays, I have become horrifically lactose intolerant. It's kind of been a nightmare. I have also become a lot busier at work. And I have been working on a major scrapbook project -- for my sister's birthday I offered to make her a scrapbook for all of her Snowball pictures, reviews, etc. It ( Read more... ) -
Wherein I Get Tipsy, Reminisce, Look Forward to 2009 and
Wish You All a Happy New Years on Behalf of Myself and D Kitty
I'm not tipsy yet. D Kitty is attempting to cough up a hairball on my office carpet. Whee!
So, here's a sort of year end "best and worst" wrap up type thing:
Best New Word:: Fabugross. Coined by a poster on TWOP in connection with the "ladies" of The Real Housewives of Orange ( Read more... ) -

No matter which party you belong to, or if you're a independent, or who you support, if you do not vote tomorrow, zombies will claw their way up through your bedroom floor. They will drop rotting flesh on your carpet and bedspread, kick your ( Read more... ) -
Hey, Young Voters!
Usually my posts are intended for not only everyone on my friends list, but also anyone else who happens by. But today I'm posting something specifically for one group: those of you the press likes to refer to as young voters. I know a lot of people are already encouraging you to vote on Tuesday and I'm just one more voice in the crowd. I hope ( Read more... ) -
McCain on SNL: Post Event Briefing
And the answer to my poll turned out to be:
"He will join in on the mocking of himself, fully realizing he's doing it," "He will join in on the mocking of Sarah Palin, fully realizing he is doing it,"
and "The ticky box is betting that McCain says, "Live, from New York - it's Saturday Night!" and I agree with the ticky box on this issue" After ( Read more... ) -
Crackpot Theory: McCain on SNL Edition Poll
So, you have probably heard that John McCain is appearing on Saturday Night Live tonight. In my opinion, this is great -- for Barack Obama. Governor Palin has sort of developed her own fandom and her SNL appearance was anything but helpful to her. McCain is lucky to pull 3,000 (non-bussed in child) people in to his rallies, his campaign and ( Read more... ) -
Texas Book Festival
I am so annoyed with myself! I forgot to remind everyone in the Austin/San Antonio/Central Texas area that my sister is speakng at the Texas Book Festival this afternoon. I hope some of y'all were able to go see her there. I assume there is a book signing afterwards, and it might not be too late to get there.
