I fibbed a little when I said regular posting would resume after Christmas. For sure after the New Year, though.
I’m touching up my hair right now, and my hands look like I strangled a smurf. As soon as the stain fades it’s inevitably time to touch it up again, sigh.
I saw a post a while [...]

Christmas Aftermath
Whew! I survived the holidays unscathed. Neither of our families were super obnoxious this year, and I didn’t have to see the REALLY obnoxious side of my family as we didn’t get back from Matt’s parents until like 5-6 yesterday, so awesomeness all around. Matt got me Moulin Rouge, volume 2 of the Angel comic [...]
December 26th, 2008Happy Holidays!
I know I’ve been slacking lately and I’d like to blame it on the holidays, but it’s mostly laziness. Regardless, the posting will probably be scarce the next few days due to running around with family and etc – the next time I can safely say I’ll be posting will probably be Friday or Saturday. [...]
December 23rd, 2008thrift scores!
heck yeah. Got a leather (or possibly faux-leather, not for sure) lace-up black belt, double-breasted NY&Co. wool peacoat, and a thigh-length PURPLE coat as well (that was made in the USA and feels like a wool blend as well). To be fair, the NY&Co. coat needs dry cleaned, there’s a tear in the lining, and [...]

Things I Love Thursday
I know, I know…been absent the last few days, I’ve been in a bit of a “funk” and just not in the writing mood. But! Today is Thursday, so you know what that means.
-FreakAngels…just found this through a bit of poking around and it’s really quite good. I’m just dreading when I catch up to [...]
Etc. etc.
It is FREEEEEEEEZIIIIING outside. Seriously. 12 degrees. As I may or may not have said before, this is an old house, with crappy drafty windows (and not properly installed doors, as you may have noticed) and the draftiness is making it pretty freakin’ cold in here too. I’ve tried to do what I can to [...]
