Oh, brother!

The sound you hear is the sound of my eyes...rolling to the back of my head...so far, that I can now see the empty chasm that once housed my brain. (Yes, I am at work. Why do you ask?)

Overjoyed over a New Toilet

nobody@vox.com(Maraschino) — Thu, 27 Sep 2007 10:00:06 -0700

I was going to title this "Toilet Joys" but with all the potty-inspired posts of mine lately, I decided it may not be the image I want to invoke. Long story short, the new toilet arrived yesterday. The plumbers are coming today. I'm so excited!...

Who's the coolest culinary celebrity? Why, one of the original Iron Chefs, of course - Masaharu Morimoto! (Ok, I didn't check the correct spelling of the first name so it's just from memory!) Who else could make anything into ice cream?! (Wal...

What's the best thing you ever bought off of Ebay or Craigslist? This: And this: I was late to the party in buying these when they were still available in stores, so I had to consult eBay to purchase them. I made sure the seller sold authen...

I tried to make this as close to "scale" as possible with The Kid being ginormous, but it just looks like my avatar is too small! No -- he really is that big!!

So Central Rain

nobody@vox.com(Maraschino) — Wed, 19 Sep 2007 20:30:07 -0700

I need to work for the weather department, if there is such a place. It's guaranteed to rain 100% every time I get my car washed. And the more money I spend on washing it, the harder and nastier the rain will be. Heaven forbid if I ever get it...

QotD: Primetime Emmys

nobody@vox.com(Maraschino) — Wed, 19 Sep 2007 20:19:05 -0700

The Mysterious, Magically Appearing $#!%

Time flies and another year has gone by which means that it's time for me to return to Bezerkely (heh) for my annual schmooze & booze fest with the kids. The good news is that I'm not at work for the first 2 days of the week. The bad news is th...
