Baby Sydney, Elder Sister of the Interloper Dear Natalie Reese, You may just be a day old, but someone's already blogging about you! How exciting is that? Who knows, by the time you're old enough to know what a blog is, we might all be doing it merely by thinking of posting — at least…

Nigeria Here I Come! Oh, happy day! My financial worries are at an end. Clearly having decided that I'm too wily to get caught up in a Nigerian Bank Scam, the scammers are now offering me work! I knew that having a skeptical nature would come in handy. Allow me to share with you my…

For those with some spare free time, my friend Joey's house is gonna be famous! HGTV came over for their "Design on a Dime" show something like eight years ago (maybe less) and re-did a room in their L.A. house. Now Joey and his wife Jen's digs are finally going nationwide.

Nevertheless, part of me is running around the house, hands flailing in…

Vengeance is mine! Or, at least some version of it Spam is scary. Almost as scary as bad spelling. But once again, how come the title of the Slashdot entry is spelled wrong, while the tag is spelled right? At least uniform bad spelling would make sense.

Oh, the infamy Well, the things you do learn. Hello to anyone from LiveJournal who hits it over here. Apparently you're now able to cross-post, of a kind, from one journal to the next. I like the look, cost, and usability of Vox so I'll be sticking here, but there are lots of lovely…
