My own white whine
Somebody designed this perfectly lovely stylesheet (to go with the CustomCSS layout), and let me use it for free. But evidently it’s up to me to figure out how to add the date/time to each entry. Waaaaaah!

Things that are awesome
Puppies That moment you realize teenage vanity is gone and you can go to the mall in your pyjamas without caring what people think Ramen noodles Scientific discoveries that kick conventional wisdom in the crotch Bacon and feta cheese on thin crust pizza Tequila for breakfast
What I Wore →
Sites like this, showcasing an admittedly vain girl’s various outfits, make me realize how very ungirlie I actually am. Anything more than jeans, tank top, hoodie, sneakers is way too much effort for me. If the t-shirt and hoodie match, trust me it was pure coincidence. I’d much rather spend my time playing with a gadget, watching Diggnation, or air ganking gnomes in World of Warcraft....
“Remember that time I peed in a Mountain Dew can so I didn’t have to get up...”
– I’d rather not say, but this is actually one of my friends
Zzzzz....
I believe I just set a personal best when it comes to smashing the snooze button and delaying the moment I leave the warmth of my bed and the comfort of a fluffy cat curled around my head purring wildly. Two and a half hours. That’s right, I mashed that button every 9 minutes for a whopping 2.5 hours, and I don’t feel guilty about it at all. The truly wonderful thing about working for...
Wanted: free remote desktop app
When will there be an easy, free way to view a remote desktop? Trying to do tech support for a friend across the continent is uber frustrating for both of us.

I really should get started doing my sacred duty and beta testing this online gaming site.
Found and then lost
Well, 2 days after I started reading her blog, and 1 day after I got over my petty “she can’t be that pretty and actually be smart” attitude problem (which I was surprised to discover I had), it seems Julia Allison’s blog is finished. juliaallison: I can’t do this anymore. It’s ruining my life. It’s a bit of a shame, since she had me inspired to get off my ass,...
Bounty out on Marine puppy killer
If you haven’t already seen the video of a US Marine throwing a puppy off a cliff, do yourself a favour and avoid it. Suffice it to say, it made me simultaneously nauseous and homicidal. Evidently I wasn’t the only one whose immediate response was a passionate desire to see the culprit beaten senseless (or, ideally, lobbed off the very same cliff). The Internet is many things:...
Watch (via Google Video) I can’t recall which blog I saw this on yesterday, but I finally watched the whole thing (cheers to my ADHD) and I’m oddly spellbound.
Tumblr, gimme some randomness
Tumblr really needs a “Random Tumblog” feature. There is significantly less joy of discovery in following the suggested list of links than there is in erratically surfing through everything they host and landing somewhere new and magnificent.

Conspiracy, or Why I won't be videoblogging today
Me: Wow. Suddenly I feel inspired to get back into video blogging.
Zit on my chin: SWEET! I've always wanted to be a star.
Video camera battery: I hate to be a downer, but I'm way dead and Mr. Chargy Cable seems to be AWOL.
Me: /sob

mascarah:Go grab it before they change their minds. :) You’d better believe I have already followed her advice, although I haven’t yet unzipped and listened to it. If I like it, I’ll definitely be looking for a paid version to get my hands on. I’m so much more inclined to pay for what people give away freely, and so delighted to pirate those who flip out and go to absurd...

Full circle: for the love of simple blogging
I’m a little young to be getting wistful about the “good old days,” but since the urge to blog again stirred in me recently I’ve been thinking about the various blogs I’ve kept over the years and wondering when it went from being exciting to the chore it felt like when I just stopped entirely last year. My first website was yellow, a soft and inviting pastel that for...
