Saturday’s Child
Friday, February 25th, 2005Monday’s Child is Fair of Face
by Mother Goose
Monday’s child is fair of face,
Tuesday’s child is full of grace,
Wednesday’s child is full of woe,

Randomness
Friday, February 25th, 2005Steve and I are contemplating investing in another fancy kitchen knife.

Our chef’s knife takes the brunt [...]

Congratualtions!
(And to think, they met at my wedding … awwwwww.)

Daddy took my picture
Friday, February 11th, 2005Daddy took my picture at the show last night, so now you can see the hair AND the costume all at once. Click through for the full version.
The show wasn’t my best performance, I don’t think. I usually do a lot of percussive hip and rib work, and I was expermenting this time [...]
pimping your cube
Monday, February 7th, 2005Fun little article with tips on the fine art of cubicle decorating. I really need to try some of this stuff. When I first started my new job, I was determined to do something fun in my cube. But alas, it still hasn’t happened yet. This has re-inspired me and I [...]
