3. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING?
I’ve used my own handwriting twice as part of the graphic design of CD sleeve art, which is neither here nor there.

Sarcasm has no place in a humorless society. Seriously, this blog has been sarcasm-free for

Did it...
If you are on Facebook and feel so inclined, feel free to add me. My name is on my blog somewhere way down there on the sidebar.
I loved it at first, then despised it and have come to love it again. I consider it an extension of my blogging for when I don't really have time to blog... which probably means I should just ditch the blog but can't do that yet.
Mine is up and I am cursing you.. sorta.
I always enjoy reading other people's responses and am glad you put up with this one! Honeysuckle and jasmine are hitting most of the lists. I miss those smells, and the warm weather that goes with them. Olives!! Never met an olive I didn't love. And amen to #31.
What is Color Me Kubrick? The older kid and I are curious. Is it co-watchable with a teenager?
MM: about the movie, it's hard for me to judge. There's cussin', a con artist, and plenty of gay flirtation. John Malkovich stars, and it's based on a "true...ish" story about a man who goes around telling people that he's Stanley Kubrick so that he can have a more interesting life.
