Biting off more than I can possibly chew

I’ve been hearing plenty about the new blogging app, Vox. But it’s always been by invitation only, and how does one come by such an invitation? Well, eventually a web friend will cough one up for you if you wait long enough. Not that I need another blog venue. Seriously. […]

How much caffeine is too much?

I’ve been having trouble sleeping lately. I know people who brag about how they can function just fine on five hours of sleep. Not me. No way. No how. Seven works. Eight is better. Five stinks. Four, well, that’s just unbearable. So I grabbed a mocha this morning. Then I […]

GR Miscellaney

Went on a walkabout downtown yesterday with some fellow Flickr peeps. It was a fun time. We explored some of the Heartside area, which I’d never really traversed on foot before. I’ve driven Division plenty of times by car, but it was a new experience to tromp past the storefronts […]

They’ve grown on me

Two years ago my mom bestowed upon me two hollyhock plants. I wasn’t very familiar with them and looked at her helplessly. She, after all, is the Queen of Container plants. She avoids perennials, yet brings them to me (well, they’re biennials, but let’s not worry about that small fact) […]
