Me

Mother of two teenagers. Enough said.

Briefly noted:

No thanks
403453Costco is selling a Backyard Bug Cake Pan:
“Imagine a table full of edible and adorable bugs! Enjoy these delightful cakes sprinkled with powdered sugar, or have the kids (and adults!) decorate their own cakes with icing, frosting or colorful candies. Durable cast aluminum ensures sharp detail and uniform baking, and a premium non-stick interior provides quick-release and easy cleanup.”

I think I’ll pass…

Doug's Winning Song
I don’t know if I posted Doug’s song before — embedded it, I mean, but here it is. (I’ve moved it to a page because it plays automatically. I hate that! Click on the link and you can see the video there.) Here’s his photo (that is part of a full page ad in American Salon magazine) and an interview on the Redken site. (0)

Report about future from the past
In the future you will read news online according to this 1981 report. “Richard Halloran owns home computer” (from Techcrunch) (4)

First 2009 Bird
A cold looking American Robin perched high in the ginkgo tree which is next to a holly tree — so probably thinking about getting a bite to eat. (2)

Understanding Flowcharts c/o xkcd
I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t always understand flowcharts — I certainly cannot make them, but sometimes I get confused when reading them. Thank goodness xkcd came to the rescue. (0)

Get Mortified

Last week I had to go into the office to train someone else to fill out the web forms I’ve been doing for the past six months or so. On the way I listened to WAMU and heard the creator of Get Mortified talk about his concept. Get Mortified is, in its own words,

“… a comic excavation of adolescent artifacts (journals, letters, poems, lyrics, home movies, stories and more) as shared by their original authors before total strangers.”

I got pretty excited about this – after all, I’ve been sharing my angst-filled adolescent journals online for a couple of years. Unfortunately, I didn’t get to see the show when it was in DC, but I suppose there is next time.

Hmm, I need to get back to the past and transcribe more teenaged entries. I kinda miss 17 year-old Cedar Waxwing.
