I'll admit, a leftover from the lab website page I made.

Last Saturday was "It's My Park!" Day in Austin, and though I think that name could still use a rework, it is one of my most favorite Austin things - basically a day of service in the parks. (We have one on MLK Day too but it's not quite the sam...

Thanksgiving Guapas, you're on your own.

Whenever I have the good fortune to go to the movies with Johnny, he always ends the trip with, "See ya later, good to sit in a darkened room in silence with you, not interacting at all!" Often there is actual dining or other hanging out before ...

Or Don't...You Know, Whatever.

Once, I ordered these really kick-ass boots on the internet. They were olive green and had big eyelets but they were preeettty expensive. After I bought them, I remember thinking, "HMMM was that such a good idea?" Since it would take a while to...

Rubber Baby Blue Bicycle Bumpers

Hello, I have dropped back ON to the face of the Earth. Yesterday I kept hearing about ham. In the morning as I was tidying my room I watched an episode of Mad Men where the mysterious Don Draper's son asks him, non sequitor, what his father li...

We're here, we're austere, get used to it.

Haha, it's not really October 6. That's just the last time I wasn't too taken with news of the election to write blog entries. Now it is over, and rolling my eyes at the tabloidy transition team news of the day (Barack! He's Just Like Us!) onl...

Looking forward to my first corn dog of the Fair.

In the middle of this week, I sort of wanted to throw in the towel on all this election stuff and just stop paying attention. I had plans to ask my mother how to keep from becoming a person who is either detached or inflamed, because she does a ...

Paradox: The quality I hate in Sarah Palin's voice is the same one I hate in Sarah Vowell's!!

Well, I've spent the first two weeks of my life as a 28 year old listening to the Democratic and the Republican conventions. It's 10:05 here in Austin and John McCain has just finished his acceptance speech, and I'm going to go take a shower soo...

Michele will sometimes forward me texts from her mom - about the lives of her 7 dogs, or how Jennifer Aniston is a horrible match for John Mayer. To me it's hilarious - to her, annoying. I remember going weeks in college without talking to my ...
