Jeweled Elf Ear Shinies

Posted in awesomesauce, blog, elf ears, everyday magic, jewelry | 1 Comment
I’m a sucker for elf ears, so when I found this etsy shop a few months ago, I jumped all over it. (She’ll make them in whatever style you want and whatever stones you like. I’ve got moonstones in mine.) Custom elf ears that slide right over your regular ears…that stay put. I have NO idea where the hell I will wear them, but the nice thing is that I *can.* If I wanted to. Maybe I’m wearing them right now. Maybe.… Read more

Apologies for the lateness of this post. These painkillers are kicking my ass and the most I can do is just sort of smile in a stupor. And that was compounded today by a migraine and trying to write up cognizant guest blog posts for later on this week, so…yeah. Anyway, I was over at Word-Whores today talking about Celebrity crushes. And there’s a nice review of A Sliver of Shadow at Bitch Can Read a Book today as well – if you leave a comment you can win a copy, so be sure to stop over there. In the meantime, I’ve been watching all the political bullshit going on the last few days dealing with women and contraception and Virginia passing that ridiculous bill that requires women to get internal vaginal ultrasounds before an abortion – even if she doesn’t want to and  Liz Trotta sounding off about how women… Read more

Not really blogging today. Spent most of the day working from home while on some heavy duty painkillers, which isn’t overly conducive to rational blogging thought. So enjoy this bit of silliness instead.… Read more

All About a Freckle

Posted in back pain, blog, Connor, I'm sorry you had to read this, Lucy, rambly | 2 Comments
I could talk about my nerve burning procedure today…but I won’t. Though apparently it will take a few weeks to really work (and it concerns me that as soon as I was done the doc asked me what pain meds I had at home and then prescribed me something slightly less powerful than morphine. So when I’m high later, you all know why.) Whatever. I’m self medicating with a bag of Reese’s Pieces until the lidocaine wears off and then we’ll see what’s what. Annnyway, today’s post is about a freckle. Not that I’m big on Valentine’s Day posts, but ms Lucy seems to have a lot of little boyfriends in Kindergarten. Only she came home yesterday and told me one of them didn’t like her anymore because she had a freckle on her neck. It’s a cute freckle, by the way. However, her current beau has decided that freckle… Read more

No, I don’t know what’s going on in this gif here, but I find it oddly compelling. Understand that I’m feeling a tad gleeful at finally getting some back end code for the Sad Sausage Dogs tester site to work. It’s the small things, really – and I haven’t done any real web design/coding on a regular basis in quite a while, but I was up until about 2 last night working on it. And the problem is, I couldn’t get part of it working, and even though I was so tired I was staring at the code cross-eyed, my brain wouldn’t shut down. So I go to bed and all I’m seeing is potential hacks and workarounds and things to try. On one level, I sorta dig it – it’s like a puzzle and if I just keep moving the pieces around, sooner or later I’ll make it fit.… Read more
