Haphazardly Hobbying

I have no idea if it’s just me or if many people are like this…but so much of my day is made up of half-formed lists running through my head. I’m a relatively organized person but I’m sloppily organized, if that makes any sense. I make to-do lists on the back of envelopes and post [...]

So you may have gathered that I’ve barely had time to breathe, let alone post, in the last few weeks. I’m sorry I’ve been MIA! The holidays & all that leads up to them are killing me, you guys. But I am alive, I am happy – I’m just REALLY busy. So, in lieu of [...]

I hope you’ve all had a wonderful day – and if you’re heading out to shop in the morning, have fun and don’t get trampled! Myspace Turkey Day Animations provided by MUDTRAP.COM

I have so many little things to write about I’m going to mash them all together and call it an entry. First, Homer would like you to know that he is not at all spoiled: Nope, not spoiled at all. Now stop taking pictures  of me and go get me a treat, Mom. Second, I [...]

I’m going to steal a page from Maggie’s book (and Keane’s, for that matter) in order to title this post. It seems appropriate, after all: I certainly can’t call it “Sleeping In” or “Sleep Don’t Walk” or “Sleeping Satellite.” See where this is going? I’ve always been one of those people who falls asleep almost [...]

101 Easy Makeovers I came across this while surfing this afternoon. While I don’t agree with all of it (no, in fact, I’m pretty sure that every room does NOT need animal print), there are a lot of good ideas for changing up your space inexpensively. Posted using ShareThis

If you visited this afternoon, you probably saw some wonkiness going on. I was messing with templates and such; hours later I can’t find anything like better than my original template, so it stays…for now. How’s your afternoon going?

Mom, please get that camera out of my face.

A quick follow-up to the “Where do you get all your coupons???” post the other day. One of the downsides to this semi-obsession of mine is that I am often surrounded by coupons and it requires constant vigilance not to be physically overwhelmed by them all. I give you Exhibit A: Ok, and maybe I [...]

Love. It. That is all. Go about your business, Internets.

I need to get up & out of the house early tomorrow morning, so just a couple quick things before I make like a tree: The best nachos in Gainesville, hands down, exist at Farrah’s on University. Matt and I have agreed that the secret is the melted Velveeta. Even if they DO cause the coronary [...]

Don’t really know what’s going on with my font sizes, etc, in the last few posts – I’ve tried to edit them countless times and it’s just not working, so I’m giving up for now. Pretend that the font sizes are consistent, ok? ;o)

Well, it had to happen sometime, I guess…. Spring Break is officially over as of tomorrow morning, and I’ve got that intense Sunday night feeling of dread. Tomorrow is going to be a serious bitch, what with the having to get up and shower and go do adult things like work. I LIKE being on [...]

Internets, I give you…. our latest Craigslist purchase. Interestingly, there was no whining from a certain corner about how we don’t NEED it etc. This deviation from the norm may have something to do with the fact that this awesome new futon now resides in my husband’s office. Hmmmmmmmmmm. Interesting. Also, apropos of nothing, I [...]
