Perhaps I need more sleep. 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I just tried to use the television remote to try to turn down the volume on my laptop's iTunes. No kidding.
Not so much meant for the “real” world. 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Today was exciting! And exhausting! And I learned a lesson!
Today I had a meeting in Northwest Portland with a company that needs their entire website rewritten. I know I shouldn't announce jobs before they are mine, but I'm hoping that Murphy won't kick my ass yet because the potential job ...
Anybody Want Coffee? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 There are few tri-word phrases that scare me more than
"Don't kill me..."
And of all the things I worried about as I jumped off the couch to see why he thought I would kill him, I did not for a second I would come face to face with Will holding out ...

I’d type the lyrics but it would give away the funny! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Last night was one of those nights. Those kind of nights when you go to bed feeling so exhausted you might actually fall over if your bed was any more steps away from the doorway of the bedroom. Then when you get into your bed your fiance makes sympathetic ...

Bert Resurrected 0000-00-00 00:00:00 This has been a week of daytime unmotivated slack assedness accompanied by late afternoon/early evening "oh crap, I really need to get this work done!"ness. Evenings are typically when I write my blog posts so...there you go. A handy excuse for not having posted since Tuesday. Tuesday! I am a ...
TOTAL Score 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Today at the library I TOTALLY scored when I found the first season of Lost (which I've been meaning to put on my Netflix queue) and the fourth season of Felicity (which I am ashamed to admit I do not yet own) on the shelf.
I felt that this procurement, along ...

A Decision! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 A decision has been made about the wedding. Like a real, honest to god almost tangible not wavering decision. And that decision? is this:
We aren't getting married until my bangs grow out.
I've had bangs since I was thirteen and to be honest I will most likely have bangs on my ...
Pizza Plants! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 There is some sort of poetic justice/funny joke about the fact that the people who sat next to us at Wall-E were both so huge that they spilled over the edges of their theater seats. I'm pretty sure that if I hadn't put the cupholder down to act as a ...

Hello Summer! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Today it got up to over a hundred degrees!
It's supposed to sink back down into the seventies later in the week but today it was over a hundred!
I'm kind of excited and at the same time I'm kind of hoping it stays cool because this whole "the North Pole could ...

OMG, It’s Friday?!? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 How the hell did that happen?!?
Today is Will's and my (hang on, I have to do math) 42nd monthiversary. To celebrate we are going to go see Wall-E tomorrow. Will is trying to convince me that we should do a double feature and see that Angelina Jolie make the guy ...

The Wall. I Have Hitted It. 0000-00-00 00:00:00 There comes a point in every day where your brain just says "okay. that's it. No. More. Thinkey."
If you are anything like me, you try to push through that feeling even if it's ten o'clock at night because there are things that you have to do, dammit! And the more ...
Bloglets! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Who knew that a post about Birth Control would be almost as popular as a post about getting engaged? That's kind of awesome.
Yesterday my friend Wendy, her daughter Fiona and I went for a picnic up on Mt. Tabor. For those of you who don't know the area, Mt. Tabor ...
An Ode To Birth Control 0000-00-00 00:00:00 When my Mom was up for my birthday I found myself saying "you know you're a grown up when you can take birth control pills in front of your Mother."
I am a little bit in love with being on birth control. Which makes me sound like some kind of total ...

Too Good To Not Blog 0000-00-00 00:00:00 On Tuesday I baby-sat longer than usual for my friend Wendy's daughter and as a thank you she sent me home with some peanut butter brownies.
Because of this week's much heavier than usual work load (for which I am eternally grateful), I've kind of let the housekeeping go. I think ...
No title 0000-00-00 00:00:00 She's a couple of days early but Distracto Girl is officially in the hiz-ouse. Good thing I only have two projects left for the week, eh?
I'm off to stare at walls...
Mmmm. Cow. 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I've sat here for over an hour trying to come up with a blog post but all I can think of is how much I want to go to Wendy's (the fast food joint not my friend's house) and get a hamburger. I feel like I'm back in college with ...
Distracted 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I sat down at nine o'clock to write a post about my tunnel vision when I have a lot of projects due and then I spent the last two and a half hours playing around with my site and iTunes. Apparently tonight, the tunnel vision, I don't has it.
Incidentally,
I know ...
What a Day 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Over the course of our day, the following things have happened:
1. Will's other sister (not the one who came to visit, the other one) called him while he was at work to scream at him for not telling her about our engagement. Will doesn't really get along with the females ...
In 1959 0000-00-00 00:00:00 If you are ever in the Portland Metro area, you must have dinner at the Black Bear Diner in Beaverton. Will and I took his sister there for dinner tonight and it. was. so. good.
The other fun part of the diner (besides the yummy food) is that the outside of ...
Again with the Late to the Party-Ness! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 People, I have discovered something that has the potential to be very dangerous. I can use my Tivo to download television shows from Amazon.com. Thank god the shows cost $2 per episode or I'd have all sorts of things being downloaded right now! Though I have to say that this ...

Proof that Opposites Attract 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Last night Will and I went to see the Foo Fighters at the Rose Garden here in Portland. For those of you who don't know and couldn't guess, I'm a pretty big fan of Nirvana. I came late to their party (which is a long long story) but once I ...

A New Bad Habit 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Apparently I have lost the ability to stay awake in the morning.
For the last few months, on the days when Will had to be at work (or school) early, I'd get up with him and then go back to sleep after he left. I figured that would stop when summer ...

Tuesday Bloglets 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Today was a baby-sitting day and when I got to Wendy's house, my friend Katie was there! Katie's been doing this summer-long Alaska road trip and I had been wondering when she'd be back in Oregon. Today my wonderment was answered by Katie leaping out from behind the front door ...

The Post of the Run On Sentence…s. 0000-00-00 00:00:00 There is still a little part of me that gets caught up in the whole...notion? of being a writer. I fantasize about writing these wonderful and eloquent posts while something classicalish plays in the background and the camera zooms slowly in on me contemplating and then tapping out my ...

The good old days 0000-00-00 00:00:00 On Tuesday I went, as I always do, to my friend Wendy's house and during the course of our conversation we started talking about how much we miss the mid-90s fashions and how much we loathe the stuff that is in style right now. Neither of us has much patience ...
Friday Slackness 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Here is a little hint for those of you who might be freelancers or looking to start freelancing yourselves. Always give yourself a couple more days than you think you will need when your client asks for an ETA on a project. Not only will you be able to use ...

Wait, it’s only Thursday? 0000-00-00 00:00:00 The good thing about Blog 365 was that it forced me to post every day, rain or shine, no matter what. The bad thing about Blog 365 was that, a lot of the time, when I couldn't think of anything to write about, I'd just toss some crappy nothing ...

The Big Behind 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I am behind. Not in an "oh my god I can't pay my bills way" (regain your breathing mother, my finances are fine) but in an "I have work to do so I'm going to let my personal life and housekeeping slide" kind of way. I have much comments to ...
The Weekend is Here! 0000-00-00 00:00:00 Today--sat on couch watching Bones on DVD because my internet connection was being a skanky tease.
Tomorrow--Beerapalooza (or whatever its called)! Yeah, okay, I don't drink but I guess they have a Root Beer Garden for those of us who choose to spend the day not inebriated.
A couple of weeks ago ...

Proud 0000-00-00 00:00:00 I am proud to say that I kept the television set off all day today--until about 8:30 PM.
That? Is a looooooooooooooong time in the quiet. And it was just a tiny bit unnerving after about, oh, 10:15 this morning.
