Since 2002 I’ve made half a dozen attempts at redesigning this site and have scrapped them all. This morning I was oddly motivated to try again. Let’s hope this effort isn’t doomed as well. If I pull it off this time it will mean squeaky clean CSS, permalinks, comments, RSS feeds, and more. But I’ve promised that to you lot before. (Full disclosure: headline pulled from here. It’s a good read.)
Bonus: And on to hard-boiled Hollyweird. And I don’t mean the Academy Awards because I quite predictably punked out, staying home in my pajamas last night rather than attending an Oscars party as I’d intended. No, I’ve just started reading Bruce Campbell’s second book - Make Love! The Bruce Campbell Way. I love that man. So much.
Plus: It’s not news to anyone that I am flickr-addicted. But I love flickr even more whenever something like the following happens. Ranjit posts this photo. I post a comment, saying someone should turn this into a book. And then, yay, someone did. That’s the sort of thing that makes my world go ’round.
And: Also fabulously fantastic, over the weekend I heard from two of my favorite people who no longer live in Minnesota. Last night my old friend Monica called, to gab about her impending wedding (next month! everyone is flying here!) and my darling April sent a Chinese New Year package, filled with goodies from Beijing. Thanks ladies!
