Thanks so much to all of you lurkers and semi-lurkers and non-lurkers who came out to comment last week. And to all those who stubbornly refused to comment even when baited and begged: I respect that. ;-)
No news on the potential for good money since he apparently is waiting for a response from the third-party. Waiting sucks.
Pete and I have now finished Season 4 of The Shield and now have to actually shell out money to rent Season 5 because the library doesn’t have any more. I spend my time outside of the house thinking everyone is doing something wrong.
My big brother bought us Battlestar Galactica, the complete first season for the holidays and Damn! That show is good! What a different experience to the cheesy show from my childhood! We are now waiting for the asshole that is late to return Volume 1 of Season 2 to get his or her ass to the library so we can borrow it, please.
That’s pretty much all I have been up to….taking photos and watching DVD’s. I had to get a new post up here though so as not to look too desperate.
I started to fiddle a little bit with the design/layout of the blog over the weekend, so if you saw anything weird, it was my fault. I screwed some things up and then put them back, so as you can see there is nothing radically different yet. I removed the blog listings for now, because I was trying to go back to just a 2-column layout. I think I am going to just link to my Bloglines subscription feeds, as that would take up a hell of a lot less room. And I changed my photo to one of my 365 shots that everyone loved. I think it really looks the most like ME than any of my self-portraits.
Look for more tinkering in the coming week or two, and try not to be alarmed.
Only 2 (or maybe 3) people said anything about a preference on how I answer comments, and those people prefer e-mails. Anyone else wishing to weigh in, please do so! Of course I’ll end up making the final decision, and for now I’m going to continue to answer in the comment section for this reason: it gets me to actually answer you. See, if I don’t, then everyone else can see that I didn’t, and I look like an asshole. If I don’t e-mail you, however, then you might think I’m an asshole, but nobody else will be the wiser. ;-)
Off to work on my self-portrait before it is time to pick up the kiddo from school. I am going to try to get a post of some substance up here before the end of the week.
This new pic of you is the BEST EVER. I just had to say it.

At first i tried to answer people using e-mail. But not everyone left an e-mail address. So i switched to answering in the comments. Do whatever works for you.

Love the new black & white photo!!!
I saw Shield too & enjoyed it.
It you ever get desperate for money, you could always pose nude. Oh wait, you already do that... hee hee hee!!!

Thank you Celeste!
Thanks Meno..yeah, I've hit 'reply' to people and had it bounce back sometimes before realizing there was no email address. ;-)
LOL @ Money maker...great anon name! ;-) And your comment cracked me up. Thank you! xo

Beware, btw-- the second season of Battlestar is split up into 2.0 and 2.5. Just so you know. :)

I'm sorry I should have said Hi last week.
I'm kerri, in Melbourne Australia. I come to you via Cecily every couple of days to look at your beautiful photography.
Cecily and I have babies at a similar age mine born 5/5/06 and I suffered with HIP and pre eclampsia like she did.
I do think your new Pic of yourself is gorgeous!
cheers
KERRI

I never delurked, but will now. I have to say, that's a gorgeous picture of you. The best one yet, you look like so pretty.

Cec, I did know that...weird way of doing it, but whatever. Some jerk refuses to return that first DVD. We are going to go to the video store to rent it tomorrow if we have to. ;-)
Hi Kerri! Thank you for saying hello!
Thank you San! xo
Thanks Coral! Okay, another vote for e-mail...I'm still not decided yet.
Thank you so much Ruby for saying hello and for the lovely compliment!

I'm delurking a week late to say that I really enjoy your writing. Your posts often remind me of my favorite show-- Gilmore Girls. I highly recommend watching some of the earlier seasons if you haven't already.
Posted by: Katie | Sunday, January 21, 2007 at 12:08 PM
Wow, thank you Katie!
I've seen an episode or two of that show and have only heard good things about it. I think we'll put it on our list of TV shows to rent and binge out on.
;-)
