I went up to NYC weekend before last to see my friends Julee and Claude. Julee and I have been friends forever, and we moved to the city a couple months apart, nineteen years ago. I left the city for grad school upstate in 1997; she has been there...

For about five months I was only in Richmond during the week and stayed with a roommate in the Bellevue section of town. It's such a great neighborhood (sadly out of our price range), and down the street from my old roommate lives a neat couple wh...

Garden Apron Rick Rack Garden Protection Cucumber Vine Radishes!

Too bad I don't have more time for craftiness.... or sleeping. Or anything, really. But in a spare minute or two, I did get my craft on and made a gardening apron: I figured it was time to bust out the rick rack (because how often do you get to ...

Everclear Art of Everclear on a Segway

Oh, and an annoyance. In the form of Verizon. Because, yet again, we had no internets for four days. Not just the regular hour or two hour drops in service (for which I can not get Verizon to compensate us, or fix), but four straight days, no serv...

ribbon toes

Worked my double shift over the weekend at Artomatic-- exhausting, but fun. The event made the TV news in D.C. a bit ago--- you can watch the clip here. Sadly, I'm having a sad and crappy time of it at the moment, despite the AOM fun. So I spent ...

corner office inky nothing says instead of flash can you see me now? seeds of friendship in the dark

P and I drove madly to get up to D.C. for artists' night at Artomatic. I was hoping to get there by 7:30. We got there at 9. SIGH. I saw a good number of people that I wanted to see, at least briefly, which I think made it worth the trip. And I...

wee garden cuke sprouts neighbor beasts

So busy, as usual, and being washed out... as usual. All it does is rain and rain and rain. After several years of drought, we're waaaay above average for rainfall. Every time I put a seed in dirt, the deluge comes. Herb garden, gone, washed downh...

Busy? Yes, ridiculously busy. So busy I haven't been blogging or, you know, anything really very fun. Although I've been able to do a liiiiiitle gardening. Only to watch my efforts wash away. Again. For the fourth time. Fifth, this morning, when I...
