The Brussels Flower Carpet

I absolutely must visit Belgium someday. They have a capital city named after my favorite vegetable!!!
I was hopping around for Photo Hunters today (Photo Hunters is a nice Saturday morning meme I participate in at my New York Traveler.net blog), and found a lovely photo posted by Gattina. It’s of the flower carpet in Brussels, [...]

…And In Between Sneezes…

Sorry, guys. My posts have been light and pretty boring for a week, I know. Last week I had a billion deadlines for some articles, then the flu came knocking at my door… well, it barged right in, actually. Most unwelcome. So that’s why I’ve been blogging about boring old Bluetooth and credit cards. *gag* [...]

Not Easy Being Green…

It’s funny, because I sang the song It’s Not Easy Being Green in the car today, while stuck in traffic. I do a MEAN Kermit the Frog impersonation, by the way. ;)

The Dodge Wimpy 2009

I *only* spent the entire morning (five hours!) today hashing through reams and reams of papers. Yes, boys and girls, it’s that time of year again– TAX TIME!

And that reminds me– here’s Uncle Jay to explain Taxes and the Deficit! This is one of my favorites.

Yeah, I’m depressed now, too…
Since I am “self-employed” (a [...]

My New Business Card

I reworking my “brand” these days, so I crafted a new business card. I really like it! The caricature is cute, as is the cartoony look of the card in general.

I got them from Vista Print. They should be in my mailbox in about two or three weeks (I’m stingy with shipping and went with [...]

The Tony’s Pizza Winner

We have a winner! I rounded up my Independent Board of Observers to randomly draw a name. They pulled out their scientific equipment (The Hat) and drew the name of the winner. One of them is in serious need of orthodontics, it appears…

Cat Grass?

I’ve been seeing on some of the cat blogs this new thing (new to me, anyway): cat wheatgrass. I must have missed something in all my 35 years of cat ownership…. do cats really need to eat grass?! I always thought it was bad for cats to eat grass, because they…
well…. because they barfed it [...]
