who's gonna scare away the boogieman?

Wednesday, June 27th, 2007

Last night, after everybody was in their respective bedtime locations (crate, basket, end of bed and bed), Regina started barking. Loudly. I rolled over, said shush, and noticed that the porch light had come on (it's motion activated). And for some reason, possibly because I had been watching a Law & ...

danah boyd on myspace and facebook: cultural divide

Monday, June 25th, 2007

Earlier today I ran across an article that detailed danah boyd's ethnographic research into Facebook and MySpace, but I don't remember where. Maybe Boston.com? Fortunately, one my favorite bloggers (who I just recently found and who is an incredibly entertaining writer), Accordion Guy went to her presentation at Harvard and ...

iceberg, prince willy and the ugliest dog in the world

Sunday, June 24th, 2007

I had a slew of spam comments that showed up in my email this morning, so dutifully I opened the blog and started deleting. Then I realized I haven't posted in a week, which of course makes me a very bad blogger. I would sit here and say, "Oh, I've been ...

happy father's day

Sunday, June 17th, 2007

Father's Day for me consisted of 1) IKEA for three hours with J, 2) BBQ at J's parents (where her dad proceeded to perfectly Dog Whisperer Reggie and it was ridiculous, lol) and 3) go fishing... for the first time... and catch five fish. :D Apparently I am never invited to go ...

aww, so sad

Thursday, June 14th, 2007

One of the best parts of our little jaunt to the Cape was that Regina could frolic on the beach and wear herself out. One of the not-the-best, but still OK parts, was that we had to take her with us everywhere. (Information I did not have prior to renting this ...

the UK definitely has talent

Wednesday, June 13th, 2007

I stumbled across this on another blog, and it is amazing. This little 6-year-old is an incredible singer. From the "Britain's Got Talent" show, with Simon Cowell (who, incidentally, is stunned and in awe of this girl).

sample sale: three days only, get in now

Tuesday, June 12th, 2007

It's that time of year again... Kate Spade Sample Sale. I was going to be good and only get one, but then the adorable Porkchop said eh why not when I asked if he thought two was too many. :D So I am getting two super cute new bags for less ...

so very bored

Monday, June 11th, 2007

The thing about vacation: it sucks coming back to work. Really, really sucks. And not because I'm busy. On the contrary, I am bored. So bored. Everyone is at a conference for the week, I have nothing to do but wait to send out emails, wait for the issue to be ...

ah, the best of PTown

Saturday, June 9th, 2007

One of my favorite things about PTown is that it is run by the gay community, and if there is one thing I love more than coffee and vodka and Ben and Jerry's Cinnamon Buns ice cream (oh dear god, it's awesome), it's the gays. I adore them. They make ...
