*Tap* *Tap* *Tap* Is This Thing On?

Thursday, December 13th, 2007

My online friend ohamanda is having a great Christmas giveaway with some fun things to pass along.  All you have to do is write a post about your favorite themed-holiday-gift-giving that you’ve done and fill out the link section on the page linking your post to her page.  Or something like that.  So go participate, [...]

Random Side-Note Thought of the Day

Thursday, December 13th, 2007

Does anyone else think that anyone who marries Tom Cruise inexplicably turns into a Stepford Wife?
Or maybe it’s just me…

Who Cares? I’m going to Scotland!

Thursday, December 13th, 2007

The chaos has already started with this grad school in Scotland thing.  People are wondering what in the world I’m going to do with a Masters in The Gothic Imagination.
My stock reply from this point on is, “Who cares?  I’m going to Scotland!”
Flippant, perhaps, but true.
I’ve never been one to fall prey to the rat [...]

The Best Christmas Present Ever! or Haggis, Anyone?

Wednesday, December 12th, 2007

Some of you who have been reading my blog before I took most of my old posts down might remember that I applied to the University of Glasgow for my Masters.
You might also remember that back in April I was given a resounding “No” for an answer.
Disappointed, I decided to go ahead and throw my [...]

The Best Christmas Present Ever!

Wednesday, December 12th, 2007

Okay.  So, I hate to be a complete tease, but I just got the best Christmas present I could ever wish for!
The only thing is that I can’t post it on my blog, yet.
But I will.  Soon.
I’m dying to tell someone, but I have to give my parents first knowledge - well, second since I [...]

Guilty Secrets

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

I love holiday movies.
The guilty in my secret lies not in such classics as It’s a Wonderful Life or White Christmas but rather in my addiction to the ultra-cheesy, made-for-tv holiday movies.  You know the ones that always involve a girl and a boy, sometimes a significant other who is, as we with guilty secrets [...]

Daddy St. Nick

Monday, December 10th, 2007

No, it’s not some new-fangled porn movie.
(Sorry, Dad!  I couldn’t resist.)
It’s my dad playing St. Nick for the folks at church.  (Yes, I finally made it back yesterday after not having been in months.  Aside from being mistaken for my ex’s sister [can I tell you how much that made me laugh?] it was pretty [...]

Glückwünsche

Sunday, December 9th, 2007

This weekend has gone by in a blur. The Christmas Parade was on Friday night. Yesterday I worked the flea market (which was a complete bust). Today I went to church and took a nap.
(enter sound of needle being dragged across a record.)
BUT
The most important news of the weekend was the birth [...]

The Wrath of Dorian Gray

Friday, December 7th, 2007

This is a picture of a handsome Dorian Gray.

This is what happens when I get Mr. Dorian Gray all riled up.

Mr. Dorian Gray in all his vampiric glory.

Need I say more?

Christmas Blah Blahs

Thursday, December 6th, 2007

I had an essay all planned out to write and post this week, but here it is already Thursday, and it’s still not written.  Getting back on a regular schedule hasn’t been as easy as I thought it would be and I’m still sleeping in fits and spurts and continually wake up at what I [...]
