If you asked me to define fickle, I’d probably tell you to look it up your own damn self. However, if I were feeling less ornery than usual, I’d tell you that a good way to understand what fickle is would be to take a look at my new hobbies over the last year. Printmaking: [...]

In searching and searching for an old dog toy I was seeking to replace, I found a Chinese website that showed a picture of that EXACT hard-to-find vinyl football. I checked the dimensions, saw 12x7x7 and thought that while maybe slightly bigger than I was thinking it was, that was probably about the right size [...]

The internet is a wicked thing. It can help convince you that your headache combined with an ant bite on your toe-web is actually a rare form of cancer. It can ruin your whole day through obsessive learning through a wikipedia link spiral or, less constructively, an entertaining youtube channel. What the internet showed me [...]

Ok, nerds — I mean toner for your face, not your printer. Even though I a grown-ass adult, my face skin still behaves as if I’m in high school. From what I had understood, that breaking out crap was supposed to go away when I was old enough to pay rent. So now I’m paying [...]

I’m still coming to terms with the fact that Google has decided, so very unceremoniously, to kill Reader on July 1. I thought to myself: “No, I can handle this. I’M AN ADULT!” Well, one or both of those thoughts turned out to be incorrect. I thought I would jump seamlessly over to one of [...]

I have Google Voice on my phone, and one of its great features is its voicemail transcription service. That means that when somebody leaves me a message, I don’t have to use all of my energy to lift the phone up to my ear and listen—I just read the transcription of the message that gets [...]

My cat, Lily, has been described by some as “fat.” Other adjectives commonly used alongside her name include: bitchy, mean, obese, evil, chubby, big-boned, fat-as-shit, and other words that would be just plain hurtful if she understood English and/or cared what anyone had to say ever. I had seen online that an auto-feeder had helped [...]

  The new season of Arrested Development is coming at us, and coming at us fast. It’ll be released all at once on Netflix, and I could not be more thrilled for that sweet day in May when I’ll be cutting off all real life activity and watching the lot of them, marathon-style. Now that [...]

This year, in my pursuit of being kinda-Catholic, I am again participating in giving something up for the Lenten season. I think that one of my more controllable flaws that I often choose not to control is my… shall we say… “volatility.” Friends will be (not at all) surprised to learn that I can tend [...]

Last night, I finished reading 50 Shades of Grey. I feel like such a pervert, so filthy, so very unladylike… mostly because of how I felt the majority of the time I was reading it, which was mostly: “That’s it?” What the heck, man? From all I’d heard, this “mommy porn” was supposed to be [...]
