monday-things that please me

there must be something...it's so hard to concentrate when i look out the window, and know that i have to go out into this. oh well. at least i'm not running in the boston marathon.

it pleases me that i don't have to run in the boston marathon.

friday-things that amuse me

the sweet potato queens

i read the first book, way back in 2000, and it changed my life. at the very least it gave me a recipe for pineapple cheese casserole and the knowledge that somewhere in the world, someone was marketing something called fat mama's knock you naked margaritas.

public service anouncement

from the desk of the queen of the underworld:

CELEBRATE ASPCA DAY AND GO ORANGE FOR ANIMALS ON APRIL 10! The ASPCA is the oldest humane organization in the Western Hemisphere, and we're more dedicated than ever to our work preventing animal cruelty and finding homes for millions of animals all across the country. But we couldn't do it without the support of compassionate citizens like you, so please join us on April 10--our birthday!--in celebration of ASPCA Day. In celebration of ASPCA Day, show your love of animals--and your support for the mission of the ASPCA--by going orange for animals! Dress yourself, your pet (even your community!) in orange, take a picture, and post it here. You'll join with animal lovers across the country in going orange for animals!



of course milo is always dressed in orange:


she's so fashion forward.

tuesday-things that displease me

  • don imus--mainly because no one talked about how janet jackson was a good person when she inadvertently flashed her tit on tv; and yet people are flocking to the support of a racist and sexist
  • the weather--it's april, people. when i left vermont, i was promised spring! you know, sunshine, warm temperatures, flowers in bloom.

thursday-things that make the heart beat faster

3 hours of house work. i'm not sure if this is an indication of how out of shape i am or how dirty our apartment was. probably both.

and there's more to do tonight.

yes, my parents are coming for easter. why do you ask?

tuesday-things that displease me

where to start?
  • that mitt romney has raised $23 million. guess that's what comes of being a venture capitalist with a hobby
  • the horrible cat and her amazing regurgitative abilities. not how i wanted to start my morning
  • this. i mean really? kansas city? really?
