Seriously?

I don’t even know where to start. You get off the blogging boat and the next thing you know, your reality has almost nothing to do with the reality you had in the last post. If that even makes sense……

New and Improved

Apologies for the radio silence. It’s been a tough month or so. But I’m here in a comfy chair with the sun streaming through the windows and birds chirping in the yard, so I think I’ll give a little update.…

Blue Steel

I’m looking through wedding and honeymoon pictures, and I’m remembering (once again) that I have three faces I make if a camera is pointed at me:
1) biting tongue while smiling
2) head pulled back double-chin extravaganza
3) smile so …

Erudite Spam

I’ve been getting some fun spam on the blog. Had to share a few.

Geez, that’s ubneilevable. Kudos and such.

2011 was a Good Year

Here we go again (see previous years)…

Danse Macabre

In the car, somewhere between San Francisco and Reno, listening to Sophie Ellis-Bextor…

Jen: This is probably the only song about killing people by making them dance really hard
Jaime: Eh. What about “Hang the DJ?”
Jen: Oh, good point. …

Two Gentlemen Directors

So much to write about! Instead of feeling overwhelmed by it all (thanks, Rekha) I’m going to just focus on a few choice treats. Namely movies! Rad movies! By wild old guys!

With Friends Like These…

Karin and Barry visit us in Humboldt the week before we get married and restore sanity and joy to all. They are the people you want to be when you grow up, even if they aren’t that much older than you.

California or Bust!

First, I applied for a job. Actually, I applied for a …

Cat of the Week: Gus!

This week I’ve chosen our second cat, Gus, as the Cat of the Week. It was a hard decision. I’ve had several awesome cats brought to my attention in the last couple of days, so competition was stiff.

However, Gus …
