For fans of Howl’s Moving Castle, have you read House of Many Ways yet? It’s the sequel to Howl and I must say a right smashing one. The style is very different–much more sparse than Howl, as I recall, though it’s been a few years since I read Howl and I’m always getting the most [...]

It’s completely absurd, but every time I see those Brooke Shields VW ads, the ones where she accuses people of having babies just for German engineering… I just can’t help but giggle. Mostly because the couples answer back: "That’s not why we’re having a baby!" "Lady, we’re standing right here!"

The cable guy is here hooking up cable and internet. As you can tell, I am finally back online.

There’s not a lot to talk shop about here right now, though, so I’m afraid it’s been a lot of filler lately. I think [...]

I’m still working on painting my apartment, which is a slow process when it’s not your first priority. I just got a nice chocolate brown leather chair–SO very comfy–and ottoman for a steal on clearance at a local furniture store outlet. I also found an end table that matched perfectly with the dark cherry shelves I [...]

And it’s the assistant manager. She lives upstairs, and earlier this morning she was walking by and saw two black cats on the stairs outside. She did a double-take and said, “Wait a minute! You guys aren’t supposed to be outside!”
Turns out that my cats had somehow knocked out the screen door to the patio [...]
