Over the past two days, I’ve been attending various sessions of a conference disturbingly entitled, “The Media as a Theater of War, the Blogosphere, and the Global Battle for Civil Society“. When I arrived yesterday after work, I joined a group of bloggers sitting in the back including Lisa, Yael, Rinat, and Allison. Having communicated with Lisa several...
Last night was the second night of Hanukah Hanukkah Channuka Chanukah, and shortly after lighting the candles, the Little One fell asleep. The poor kid was positively exhausted, having not slept at all during the day, so when he put his head on my lap and closed his eyes, we realized (and indeed hoped) that it would be the beginning of his night’s sleep. At eight...
So, after hours of pondering, tweaking, and contemplating tossing my computer (not to mention alternately badgering and complaining to Mr. Anglosaxy), I’ve managed to create a new look for Something Something. There’s still a bit of cleaning up to do, and I’m still trying to figure out how to add photos to the header without everything going totally wonky...
Greetings and salutations. I’ve just upgraded to Blogger Beta, so please bear with me as I work out the kinks throughout the day today. Eventually, all original lists, photos, icons, etc. will have returned to their usual locations. Patience is a virtue, so let’s see how virtuous I can be during what promises to be a somewhat annoying tweaking session. For now...
For as long as I can remember, I have been a fan of The Beatles. I had albums, singles, and photographs, as well as a funky, velvety poster on the back of my bedroom door, which remained there (along with the a-ha poster over the bed) until my parents moved house last year. Even when I was in elementary school, my account name for our school district’s computer network...
Do you remember, as kids, there would always be that one kid who was forever walking around with a sign stuck to his back that read “Kick me”? I think I must have one on my back that says “Meme me”, as I’m forever getting meme’d. This time, the culprit is Lisa, whose blog, by the way, has just been announced as the winning blog in the...
Whew! I must have just woken up from a very long, very bad dream. I dreamed that the President was accused of rape and sexual harassment, the Justice Minister was on trial for sexual harassment, and Israel went to war with Hizbullah (I mean, really! I had to dream that! How absurd to think that Israel would conduct an actual war with a terror organization!). I dreamed that...
Thanks to Beth for posting this funky little meme… If I’ve done it, I’ve bolded it. Things I’ve Done 01. Bought everyone in the bar a drink02. Swam with wild dolphins03. Climbed a mountain04. Taken a Ferrari for a test drive05. Been inside the Great Pyramid06. Held a tarantula07. Taken a candlelit bath with someone08. Said “I love you” and meant it09...
It’s interesting to see the way this blog has evolved. In the beginning, I wrote extensively about current events, throwing in the occasional personal (or at least non-political) anecdote mostly when my former blog partner cajoled me into doing so. I reveled in writing serious, controversial posts, going on about the topic du jour whether it was politics, disengagement...
No time for a “real” post, though I do have one brewing. Perhaps I’ll manage to write it up during the next few days. In the meantime, some test results I’m rather proud of… You are 62% Bittch! Wow! You really are becoming a real Bittch! Has anyone ever told you that? I think you need to calm it down! Before you can’t turn back from being a...
