1000 words

Or at least 1000 posts.
I know. I’m all about the milestones.
Today marks my 1000th post on this here little experiment. Of course, that counts even the lame ones (like this, this, this and this to point you to just a few examples of my ability to be lame.) (Note: this list is NOT exhaustive.)
Sometimes I [...]

The one where I’m interviewed

Remember Neil’s big experiment? Where every blogger is somebody and there’s a big interview virus making it’s way around the blogosphere? Well, I really lucked out. Palinode used to interview people for a living. The questions were a little silly, but there were also some “big questions” mixed in. The interview is up over at [...]

Interview: Ash in Amsterdam

Here it is folks! My contribution to Neil’s Great Interview Experiment. I was lucky enough to have Ash in Amsterdam leave a comment right after my comment and so, I got to interview her!
I obsessed a bit about how to proceed (you’re shocked. I know.) And in the end, I decided a more “organic” method [...]

for Misss Eliza

I had my very first ever “meet a blogger live and in person” today. Miss Eliza and I had coffee. (cue: dramatic music)
I must say she is an amazing woman. Smart, articulate, compassionate. Good mom, loving wife, good friend and daughter. She works as a teacher’s aid in a special education classroom (which is hard [...]

I heart you all!

Work is, as I predicted, S.L.O.W.
So I had time to call around and find a new ride for tomorrow (JRM, another nurse friend — I seem to know a lot of nurses.) And time to get a couple of people to sign as witnesses to my signature of a health care directive (because I had [...]

For Neil

Hey, Neil! Don’t you just wonder about when you think there isn’t anyone out there in your corner, the universe (or blogosphere. Tomato, tomahto) surprises you with unexpected abundance? And then isn’t it human nature to be just a little stressed out about how we’re going to deal with all this abundance.
Yeah. Me too.
Check out [...]

Answers for Abbagirl74

I asked for it, I guess. Here are her questions and my best attempts at answers. Or at least my best attempt today.
1. If you could hold any position in public office in this country, what would it be and why?
That is a tough one because I don’t know that I would like to have [...]

An easier meme than Abbagirl’s for right now

Sheesh! She said she didn’t think of any ‘deep’ questions! Per my usual, I’m probably thinking too much about them but in the meantime here’s one I found over at  Miss Britt. this morning…and she stole it from Avitable…
The whole this is pretty easy really. I don’t think you’d even need to do the circling [...]

8 things

Well, it doesn’t look like I’ll get out of it because BOTH Abbagirl74 and Proxima tagged me with this on the same day! I’m not one to mess with signs and people that there is a sign. So, here goes.
* * * * * * *
1. I have to post these rules before I give [...]

Blue Moon

It must have been a slow news day in the Twin Cities because I saw the “what is a blue moon, anyway?” story at 5, 6 and 10. (common definition is the second full moon in a calendar month. Happens about once every 2.7 years. Apparently really important. Which I knew before they told me. [...]
