This is It…
The final moments are here … you have until 11:59pm EST tonight to get your dress entered in the Fifth Annual Dress Contest. There are no more excuses – go enter now!
A Day Late…
It’s a day late thanks to Naomi coming over to visit last night, but I had to point you all to Scriptygoddess to check out the cool new look! And she’s implemented some GREAT new features there too – when I find time I must add in the Hotlist functionality to my own site!
The Big Debate, Part 2…
Don’t you just hate it when you start to write a full post about something, then you change your mind, but you forget to change the title of the post? Well, that’s what I did last night. I was a little distracted since Naomi was over to visit me and we were having [...]
Things Are Getting Ugly…
I am really glad I have a Tivo because that way I can fast-forward through the biting, bitching, back-stabbing commercials of all of the likes of Tony Sanchez and Rick Perry. I’ve had enough. Finger pointing just seems like the worst way to try to win a political office. (You can read [...]
The Big Debate…
If you haven’t noticed it yet, the upgrade to MovableType 2.51 is now available. Go be part of the herd.
You Know You Have Arrived…
Robyn & I discussed awhile back when one of her blog designs was stolen that you know you have arrived when someone does that to you. Well, today is my day.
This site is my main design here and this one is my design at Pixelog. The appropriate people have been notified (namely the [...]
Reach Out and Touch Me…
If scientists can shake hands over the Internet now, can you just imagine what this will do to cybersex in the future? Being able to touch over the web will put a whole new spin on things! [via Kairosnews]
Get Listed…
Photoblogs.org – The Photoblog Resource is a great idea. Pixelog is listed, and if you like it you can vote for it. Meanwhile, add your photo blog too! [via Dawn]
I’ve Got Sunshine…
Like J-Mo, I almost cried this morning when I walked outside and discovered that the sky was BLUE with little white puffy clouds. My mood is 150% better then it was 24 hours ago thanks to finally having some sunlight! I even took photos of it, I was that excited – I’ll be [...]
Wet Adventures with DateMan…
Oh Dear Lord. I was complaining earlier today about the fact that we’ve had 10 days of rain and it just seems like it will never end. Now? Oh my.
At about 8pm, going out to dinner seemed like such a good idea. Sure, it’s raining – but this is Houston! [...]
Time is Short…
Have you entered the Fifth Annual Dress Contest yet? You only have until 11:59pm EST Thursday night to enter, so what are you waiting for? Come on… enter your dress today! The deadline is near, and we want to see you!
The First Blog…
Thanks to Internet Archive, I was able to find the very first version of my blog, “To Make a Short Story Long…”! I can’t find the old Blogger account, so I’ll slowly add in the posts one at a time to make this blog complete with all of my posts every written. I [...]
Monday Mission 2.43
Today’s questions caught my attention, so I thought it was time I did PromoGuy’s Monday Mission!
Party Pic! Party Pic!
When I was in college I actually worked for one of the “Party Pics” companies. You know the ones – they walk around the sorority and fraternity parties with cameras, and people yell out that they want their picture taken. Afterwards, sheets of proofs are delivered and you can order 5×7s of the [...]
I’ve Got What You’re Looking For…
I’m sitting at #2 for the search results for both of these and I’m not sure which one amuses me more. And for the record, I didn’t search for either one myself – they showed up in my stats. Get your mind out of the gutter!
To make up for my slip in watching [...]
I Have a Confession…
I have a confession. You’re going to hate me now. I watched On the Line today … and liked it. Yes, an N’Sync movie. It was amusing. Maybe I’m just a big sap – but I don’t care. If I promise to give you my cute look will you [...]
Mini Me…
Ciscley has often talked of the joys of using an Aiptek Mini Pencam and I’ve always admired the photos she has taken with hers. When I came across one at a fantastic price, I just couldn’t pass it by! Now you can see some of the ones I took over at Pixelog!
Just Witchy…
I don’t know – personally, I thought I made a good witch, purple hair and all. (Image opens in larger pop-up window.) More Halloween photographs to come later when my headache goes away.
On The Way to 500…
Just thought I would note that we are on our way to 500 entries at Picture Yourself. One of my most recent favorites is this one submitted by Ste. Cracks me up every time I look at it!
Speaking of Ste, I don’t think I mentioned before how much I *love* his project, Improving [...]
Time to Breath…
Wow. I didn’t realize just what an incredibly hectic week this had been until I finally had a moment today to just stop and breath. I feel like I’m just now getting my feet back under me. Housework has been … well, worked on. It’s not done. But I decided [...]
