Coupon Dork 2

Apr

2011

Thanks for visiting! If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. You can also keep up with me on Facebook page. So about a year ago, I mused about why we don’t coupon. But being the sheep that I am, I couldn’t help but watch Extreme Couponers and be utterly ...

I’d Rather Be At San Diego Comic-Con 5

Jul

2010

San Diego Comic-Con is this weekend. And I’m not there. I can’t begin to express how much this depresses me. *sigh* I am a very sad geek mom. Not only am I a huge comic fan, my favorite TV shows (namely Bones, Leverage, Big Bang Theory and Burn Notice) will all be there as well ...

Garden Update: Coming up green!!

Jun

2010

Just a day or so after I mourned the effort, it looks as though all the seeds I sowed about two weeks ago are starting to sprout! First up were the daikon and then the Thai basil. Today I peeked outside to see a lovely row of green coming up on our cilantro patch and ...

Garden – Summer 2010

May

2010

After quite a few stops and starts, I was finally able to start my very first garden earlier this month! And of course, I neglected to post the few photos I took. While I originally wanted to do a no-till lasagna garden and also considered a square foot garden, I ended up just getting a ...

Garden Update

Almost two weeks after planting my first seedlings, I saw that most of my labor had been for naught. But only most. One particularly strong willed pot had successfully sprouted some green!

2010

Like most toddlers, TLE loves to be outdoors. So much so that she’s spent the last month or so looking longingly outside, pointing outdoors and indicating that she wanted out. But alas, the weather has been horrific for the past month or so, raining steadily since about the beginning of February. Happily for her, it ...

Nanowrimo, Day #2

Nov

2009

Well, I’m on Nanowrimo Day #2 and already I have hit a road block. Out of a goal of 1,700 words to write today, I am sitting at a miserable 305. While I am eager to write, I am somewhat lost on where to go. Yikes. I hope to make it through this block tomorrow.

Riding the Google Wave 2

Oct

2009

Hooray!! I’m part of the Google Wave preview. I lucked out and ended up getting a Google Wave invite from a friend of mine who happens to work at Google. (THANKS ED!!) TRIVIA: Did you know that the term “wave” was inspired by Joss Whedon’s Firefly? Oh so nifty and so extraordinarily geekarific! Gotta love ...

2009

It’s September 30th (almost)… who has their Google Wave invites?? … not me, yet. Darnit! Here’s hoping I get one today. I am really hoping so. I signed up for their beta almost as soon as it was announced.
