Five Years

And five years, almost to the day, I left the Mississippi Coast. This past June found me and AB in a car on our way to Alabama.

And so this anniversary feels like it is no longer mine. I know where the Coast and New Orleans were at three months ago. Which is [...]

Sunday Night

Funny that I don’t have anywhere to be, other than right here at this machine, tomorrow morning, and yet I still get that Sunday night malaise. Even odder if you consider that I actually look forward to that time alone, after a weekend of company and activity. But I do still feel it.

Is This Thing On?

So obviously I’ve messed up my site. I was so excited to download WordPress 3.0, and I did, and then I updated all the other widgets and themes and yada yada, and then it was all wrong.

That’s my technical estimation of what happened anyway.

And of course that all happened while I [...]

Horoscopes for my Birthday & My 34th Year

Thank you Sally Brompton!

For the year:

You can and you will accomplish more in the next 12 months than you did in the last, but only if you stop trying to gain other people’s approval. You are who you are and you do what you do, so be yourself and be happy – [...]

Alabama Bound

It looks like we’re moving next month. To Huntsville, Alabama. I’m not even really sure where to start with this piece of information.

Although most of our stuff is in storage, and pretty much ready to be thrown in a U-haul, we’ve been in our temporary digs for over a year now, which [...]

Igigi & Their Forget Me Knot Dress

As I mentioned in an earlier post, one of the awesome companies Ms. Bix got to sponsor the Weetacon weekend was Igigi, a fantastic San Francisco based clothing company. They are in fact one of my favourite designers, and I already own a handful of their dresses.

A few weeks prior to the [...]

Seperation of Church and State

There are a couple of these signs at major intersections of the town. I thought at first that someone had put them up privately on their business sites, but no, it looks like the they are official signs put up by the town.

From Signs About Town

I think Thomas Jefferson would [...]

Birdies

One thing I would miss if we ever left the swamp is the birds. I’m still awed by the sight of an egret standing stock still in a puddle, or a pelican riding the air currents next to the bridge, or the colorful cardinals and blue jays and woodpeckers and bluebirds (thank you Mississippi [...]

Weetacon VI – Part Four

Hallowed be to whom ever is in charge of this stuff, but I woke up on Sunday without any alcohol induced pain. Dancing pain on the other hand was rampant. It’s been a log time since I danced in heels. Ow.

Breakfast was the beginning of the end, and we started doling out the [...]

Weetacon VI – Part Three

Saturday my eyes popped open of their own accord at seven am. I hated my eyes a little bit right then.

After an uneventful breakfast, a quick internet fix (sob!), I wandered over to the tech talk, where I got to pick really smart people’s brains about stuff like WordPress, site management, and SEO. [...]
