So excited

1. I wrote a guest post a couple weeks ago for the lovely blog, HappyVolunteers.com. It’s run by a Twitter friend of mine and celebrates the dedication and love and goofy things about volunteers everywhere. I wrote about my gut. It’s a bit more appealing of a topic than it sounds. Sort of. Here it […]

The short answer to this question is that it simply didn’t mesh with my priorities. In case you’re not as much of a nerd as I am, South By Southwest (SXSW) is a huge music, film, and interactive (read: geek) festival that takes place every March in Austin, TX. It’s, in a word, craziness. It’s […]

Do you always have to be promoting the masses of your (mostly) female followers to read nothing but novels? Good novels, ok, arguably, yes.

I caught the trailer for the unofficial Facebook movie for the first time on tv today. (I don’t watch much television, has it been playing for a while?)
