Blupdate? Blogdate? Upblog?
We are currently on our way home from the beach. I’m sure I’ll post more pictures later in the week, but there’s just a ton of tidbits that I haven’t had the chance to share on here in the past few days, so this post is the ever-random update post. First of all, if you’ve […]
Announcements, Meet-Up Info, And Useless Information in General
First off – If you hadn’t noticed, I decided to have a spur-of-the-moment giveaway-fest. Of course, the timing was over a long holiday weekend, so there aren’t nearly as many entries as usual, which means that if you haven’t entered, you need to get right over and enter, because your chances of winning are good!!!

In fact, I read all of my reader’s blogs (that I know about. Sorry, blog lurkers, I can’t read yours if you don’t come clean and ‘fess up to reading mine). I […]
Correction in the Name of Science
Thank you all SO MUCH for your overwhelming support yesterday that I am, in fact, a normal human being. Oh. Wait. I mean thank NO ONE but Alice and Kitty!!That’s okay. I can take it. I am happy to be an oddity if I can entertain the masses. (sniff) But one thing can be for […]
