Burning Down the House

oh hey, i didn't see you there. i've been super busy chasing a fat little baby everywhere. why? because now that he won't stop moving ever:

and this is what our floors look like:

i have to constantly make sure he doesn't die. but don't worry, i have worked out a surefire baby proofing method that will keep the baby safe:

until the house burns down....

But I Won't Do That....

good luck: the turkey meatloaf came out great, and totally cooked through:

bad luck: the meat thermometer didn't fare so well:

good luck: cm got me a new one:

and it's digital!!

Spam Sandwich

one of my favorite authors is now spamming ME:

does that make me some sort of big shot??

Chop Suey

lucky for me, the new knife i bought works really well:

don't worry, i barely managed to avoid going against the manufacturer's cautions:

but in the end i DID avoid it.

Sarah Says: Love Your Mother

this is sarah:

sarah is a totally lovely person, and i am lucky to have her as a friend. however, there is this one thing....sarah is the kind of socially responsible person who has a higher degree in do-gooding:

and because of that, just looking at her stupid, adorable face is forcing me to be a good environmental citizen. so...no more delicious, unsustainable tuna:

but good news! it turns out canned salmon actually works out great AND is relatively sustainable:

we did it!

Behind in the Polls

super bad luck. it turns out that i have this luck counter on my blog:

and it's severely outdated:

this means that i either have to manually update it, take it down, or outsource it to someone who is not-me. shall we take a vote?

yes, yes we shall. cast away!

Good and Bad Luck Texas

well, we did it, we high tailed it out of new york and made our way to austin:

no more winter:

no more being packed into the subway:

no more endless staircases when stupid elevators are out of order:

but on the other hand....no more hobnobbing with my famous peeps:

no more walking around all of the time and making money off of it:

and no more friends:

i guess it is now time to begin the campaign to move everyone* to austin!


*everyone i like. many people will tell you that the campaign to move everyone in the world to austin is well underway.
