top ten tuesday: beatles songs

Inspired in part by the movie High Fidelity and by a conversation Joel and I had recently… And again, as is my tendency, there are random groupings of songs because I am consistently unable to actually limit myself to just ten of anything. I’m very indecisive, you see. Maybe I should just [...]

miscellany monday

Judging by the titles of my last few posts, I am clearly all about the days of the week lately. Sheesh, you’d think I’d just learned them… Anyway, just wanted to offer a quick update on weekend activities and life in general:
The Simpsons movie: If you know Joel or me at all, [...]

flickr friday

This coming Sunday has been lingering in the back of my mind for weeks now, filling me with dread, as it does each year.
lonely
hear my voice
if only
stand by me

remembrance
where I am
but when?
Any good thoughts you can send my way this weekend will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

quickie: wedding pix

Just a quick update for interested parties:  I finished cropping/editing all the pictures I took at my sister-in-law’s 07.07.07 wedding.  There’s a series of 48 shots posted on my Flickr page if you want to take a look…which you should because Joy was the most adorable bride EVER; her new (lucky) husband Seth was looking [...]

top ten tuesday: blogs

Just to be clear, I am not, NOT trying to encourage you to stop reading my blog and go read a bunch of other blogs instead — please, please don’t do that. If you’re here, chances are I know you (if not, introduce yourself, for crying out loud!), like you and I want you [...]

it IS clamtastic, dammit!

I’m still mad about the theft of Joel’s creative and intellectual property, but I will grudgingly admit that I’m wicked excited about this weekend’s Yarmouth Clam Festival!

Watching the rides (notice I didn’t say riding the rides…), browsing the craft show and the flea market, the firemen’s muster, the clam shucking contest (yes, there’s a clam [...]

top ten tuesday: actors

Yeah, yeah, I couldn’t narrow it down to 10, so I categorized a little. Please don’t sprain your brain trying to make sense of these categorizations — I made them up on the spot based on nothing other than my own weird logic. It’s my blog, I can do that. Anyway, here [...]

who’s that girl?

You are a Rocker Girl!

If you don’t have musical talent, you’ve got a talent for picking out great CD’s. Music rules your life – and you’ve got the best MP3 collection of anyone you know. Many guys find you intimidating, but a select few think you’re the catch of a lifetime. [...]

whirlwind wedding weekend

7/13 Update: I’m having a little trouble editing my pictures these days, but here’s one shot to hold you over until I can get the group loaded onto Flickr:

Joel’s little sister Joy got married in Boston over the weekend, which made for a whirlwind of activities — it was busy, but such a blast! [...]

land of the free

Oh, say! Can you see, by the dawn’s early light, what so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming, whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight, o’er the ramparts we watched were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air, gave proof through the [...]
