A Very Sculpey Christmas
So I have this issue with giving presents. I want to give them on my time, not necessarily when the calendar says it's time. This does not work out really well as sometimes I forget to get presents ..…

Life happens when you least expect it
When I was four, I regularly woke up before my mom. Most of the time, I watched Scooby Doo on the black and white tv. A few times I came across an really interesting show. It was kind of like church,…

Timmy Plays in the Snow
So of course, the day after I take some snaps of Timmy the Red-Nosed Reindeer Monkey, it snows here which is pretty much the perfect backdrop for a reindeer monkey. I snagged Timmy, set him up, told m…

Voila! Timmy The Red-Nosed Reindeer Monkey
Sometimes I see something and it just clicks. As I've said, thinkgeek.com is one of my favourite places in the universe. They have a website with real humour, beautiful and innovative design work and…

Timmy the Red-Nosed Reindeer Monkey
It's no secret that I enjoy being a massive geek, so it's no real surprise that I adore thinkgeek.com. I logged in over there the other day, only to discover their holiday theme is up ... and it's bas…

Jazzy Good Gifts

No Comparisons
Pain. We all have it at some time or another. But the funny thing about pain, whether it's mental, emotional, physical ... whatever ... it's not something you can compare. I see people all the ti…

Contemplations
It's been an odd 24 hours. It started when I was going through my iCalendar. Turns out that Monday, November 22, 1999, I was sick and tired of being tired and sick all the time. The doctor I'd been se…

Woot.com
So I love Woot.com - they have some of the best copywriting anywhere. Case in point - the copy for Homeland Security Wireless Day/Night Camera Kit – 2 Pack: A sign was painted Said: Private Prop…

Where the Wild Things Are - Max
So, despite the ridiculous amount of silence here, I've been way busy. I have a project due the 10th, but which will probably not get completed until the 14th or 15th since I have so little time durin…

Where the Wild Things Are
1963. Maurice Sendak. Where the Wild Things Are This is a children's book iconic, so well-known, so beloved ... and so short ... it's hard to believe Hollywood would even attempt to make a movie out…

Homes
When I was just starting school, we moved to a very magical place. The north side of Austin, in a little subdivision called Balcones Woods. You got there via the highway, passing a couple of active qu…

The Man Who Knew Cliff
September of 1990 ... I'm taking a sophomore English lit class that I'd been excited about prior to the semester's start. I'd checked out the books in the bookstore for the class and we weren't using…

Stepping Forward
Life is a constant cycle of struggle and complacency. We struggle to establish ourselves, to define ourselves ... and then somehow we allow others to label and box us. (You don't need to go to coll…

Would You Like to Learn to Love?
As I've said many, many times before, I was an odd child. Instead of listening to Guns N Roses and Beastie Boys, I was listening to the Kingston Trio and Peter, Paul and Mary. Tonight I am beyond cr…

When I Was Thirty
I didn't feel well. I was tired and run down. I'd been feeling that way for a while, but I thought I was just getting older. I was 30. I'd actually been going to the doctor for the last two years.…

The United States\' Health Care "System"
