i believe that title. inspired by the lovely receptionista and Sublime Stitching, i have been trying my hand at embroidery. if i had a fancy camera (or one that i knew how to use) i would post the pictures of my first projects. alas, i don’t so you’ll have to old school it and use [...]
as if real furniture and lack of show posters isn’t enough … we went and bought a house!
everyone keeps asking us if we’re excited and i respond with a blank stare. honestly, i’m not sure how i feel. a bit nauseous maybe. but other than that, no defining feelings at this point. of course [...]
i just spent lots of time typing a big fat post when Safari barfed or as other people like to call it “unexpectedly quit”. is it really necessary to say that? of course it’s unexpected, it’s not as if i was waiting for it to happen. perhaps the developers felt using a polite phrase might [...]
as i left from work today, tiny crystals of hail began to pelt my car. the wind has been whipping through the sound all day. as i drove up highway 99 and crossed the bridge (undoubtedly one of the nicest points of my drive) a rainbow appeared to the right over house dotted hills. by [...]
Monday is undeniably the most unnappealing day of the week and yet today, i am savouring it. my couch is topped with a blanket, a sleeping Primo Dog and several books within arm’s reach. i awoke to coffee already made and ready to be sipped in front of my office window. what a lovely day!
today [...]
i’ve been thinking quite a bit lately about putting together some merch to sell both online and at the sunday market in Fremont. i haven’t really spent as much time with the tablet as i would have liked. between the house hunting, crazy work state and other unmentionable items i’ve been distracted. here are the [...]
this morning just before 5am, Primo jumped up out of a deep sleep and barked his brains out. this in turn made me sit straight up and come close to falling out of bed. i was right in the midst of a stress dream (i have them quite often when i’m starting to feel the [...]
i’m cleaning house on my links ….

Jenville - although i do enjoy this site and will most likely continue to check it intermittently, it’s not updated enough to remain in the regular reads.

NYC eats - this site is good! i specifically enjoy the photo version of the site.

oh, i’m sorry, it’s a Volvo. the Volvo concept car to be introduced at a European auto show in March was designed by 100 women at Volvo. apparently, they thought they were “designing a car for affluent, independent women.” the main features include:
- no hood: because women don’t want to bothered with maintenance. no siree, [...]
well, after my previous rant on the horror of daytime TV, i thought it might be nice to post the good news i’ve heard as of late. from Pitchfork Media, Neko Case is doing a very mini tour that hits Toronto, Tucson and Chicago. if you are lucky enough to be in the Tucson area [...]
as do most people, i have very low expectations of daytime television. it’s usually something i watch when i’m sick (like today) and am feeling too crappy to concentrate on reading and too uncomfortable to actually sleep. most shows are typically outrageous and that the show does it for ratings. however, for the first time [...]
my dog hates me. on Friday we took him to the vet where: his nails were trimmed, he received a yearly shot, nasal spray and eye drops (for a bout of pink eye he obtained while face planting in the mud at the park). on Saturday we took him to Magnuson Park and then promptly [...]
