I am 110% against abortion. Period. Unborn humans are human beings, and innocent life should never be taken. I’ve written several Letters to the Editor about this issue (and have received enough hate mail to last me a while). But I am not against stem cell research and stem cell therapy, not when it is [...]

It’s Boring Around Here

December 22, 2008

I’m not complaining! It’s better to have a time of slowness and quietness than tragedy. But there’s nothing really to blog about lately. This is unusual for me, cuz I’m quite the blogging chatterbox. But life is quiet right now, and busy- we are spending just about every day shoveling all the snow we’ve been [...]

I am so excited, totally stoked! It came, it came, it finally came!!! Here’s my beautiful kitten modeling what the UPS man brought me this morning. I’ve been looking, FOR YEARS, for rose-scented perfume. I just love the smell of roses, they make me swoon with spine-shivering undulations of ecstastic delight. OK, maybe I’m overstating [...]

Gosh, I love a good choreography. lol. I took dance in drama school, and LOVED it. Remember a year or two ago, that viral video that hit the Internet (NO, NOT the Rick Rolled!)?

Ana of Chica&Pumuckl tagged me with a picture meme! I am so excited, I haven’t done a meme in so long. I know some folks don’t like memes (they can be a chore sometimes), but I rather like them. So Ana, thank you for thinking of me. I’d been wanting to do a meme. Here [...]

December 16, 2008

8 Comments

Continuing with my series on blogging for pay (see the first part here), I mentioned about getting your own domain. TRUST ME- you definitely want to own your own domain and not get it from Google or a third-party (like Blogger or Bluehost or Hostgator). You want to own your own domain name outright. Buy [...]
