I seem to be having some difficulty with my life style.* That’s not actually totally true, I reserve that quote for, well, circumstances other than these. But I have been having some trouble getting my blog posts up in a timely fashion. That seems to happen when I’ve actually got an abundance of things to…

St. Patty’s Day Preview, for some people I don’t know…

Places, Names, and Clothes – 15th Street, March 15 2013
15th Street, heading into the dev drinkup; just me as usual (I overestimated the willingness of my friends to pose for clothing shots when I named this feature), wearing a leopard shirt, Guess sunglasses, jeans from Old Navy, Nine West boots, and Coach bag. If these jeans last through the wash I’ll buy more. They…
The Misexpectations Travel Blog
I had grand plans for vacation. As I packed, I photographed every item I brought, because I thought I’d blog my packing list and how I wound up wearing it. I thought I was doing one of my best packing jobs ever. On vacation I want to be as sexy everyday as I wish I…
I Still Exist
And my eyes are almost healed. I’m making this post to post something, because I am in my personal blogging danger zone where I might get frustrated/embarrassed by my blog lapse and fall off the writing regularly wagon. You’ll have to wait to hear about my blog project fails, the combination of eye surgery and travel,…
13 Hairstyles with a Side Shave
Before I shaved my side, I did a lot of careful research, trying to find out how it would look worn in other ways aside from down. Examples are out there, but its a hard thing to find on purpose. So now that I’ve had my side shave for awhile, I decided to do a…
Confessions of a Bad Friend Crush
I think that I might have an internet crush on Herey at Rhymes With Fairy , because her posts always elicit a response from me. When I read her Why Can’t We Be Friends? – about “friend crushes” and how hard it can be to turn them into actual friendships, I felt a bit ashamed. I think…
Liebsterfest.
As I mentioned previously, I have been nominated for a Liebster Award by Kelley from Another Novel Read. This is my first blog award ever, so I don’t even care if she nominated me mostly because we have similar taste in hair and a constitution that even Wowriot can’t kill. 🙂 Now, there is no…
The day in Pictures – Sunday February 24: Mavs, Trains, Plants.
Sunday was taking the train to the Maverick’s game, Home Depot for plants and dirt, and some laundry. There’s always one thing that makes me forget to take a couple of photos; this time its working in the yard. …
The Day in Photos – February 23: Filming, Gaming, Playing, and Drawing
It was one of those weekends in which my accomplishments didn’t quite live up to my ambitions. I have about four or five “intellectual” posts half written in my head, but so much kept going on that I didn’t get anything really, actually written. But I did take the time to write up this lame excuse. In…
Book Haul – Half Price Books and a Theme of Places
Passionate Nomad The Life of Freya Stark by Jane Fletcher Geniesse This one came from the big Half Price on Northwest Highway (Dallas). I can’t say that I know much about Freya Stark, but the cover attracted me. She was an adventurer and writer who traveled the middle east in the late ’20s and ’30s….
SpyCam – People Zoo, Dallas Zoo
I couldn’t photograph anything close to me, but I could reach out and touch somebody with my lens.
