my little white beast of burden (my aptly named iBook) continues to improve. Best news, I have now installed the drivers necessary to use my tablet so I am now fully operational to edit photos on both my beautiful wuxga screen silver bullet (factory named, rechristened d'ell in honour of el mariachi) and this little work horse. There are a few flaws with...
It's no longer a question of staying healthy. It's a question of finding a sickness you like.--Jackie Mason That quote seems to epitomize my life right now. I seem to be hit with whatever sickness is flying around. I thought this was the weekend of my convalescence... I felt rather chipper and was in rather good spirits after watching the new Harry Potter...
I arrived for work earlier than usual... and I was greeted with a sea of zebra cowboy hats and sparkly feather boas. unbeknowst to me, it's funky friday.and tonight we celebrate. ...
health update: no dislocated ribs... cough is decreasing...I try to be out of the ordinary, but I think I'm failing miserably. It's probably what's left over from my cold, but I'm feeling a little bland and just the tiniest bit unspecial. Maybe I'd like just a little adoration to make me feel unique again. and not just from my flickr fans. show me...
I made the interestingness page on flickr. Me... ...
Winter is on my head, but eternal spring is in my heart.--Victor Hugo (1802 - 1885)I went to the drugstore this morning to buy some cough suppressant... and as I walked down my driveway I couldn't help but think that I really do have to pull out my longjohns from storage. And that realization depressed me. I like the look of snow, but...
classic bob Originally uploaded by *raffaella. I've been sick all weekend. It's been horrible, not because the worst of it coincided with my weekend, but because it's been one of those rancid sicknesses that has drained me of most of my energy and racked my abdomen with tuberculosis-like coughs that wake me from the deepest slumber. If I didn't have to worry about...

here are a few gems from this evening. a friend of a friend was visiting from a nearby city and we all went for dinner and then watched Finding Neverland while drinking delicious Red Mellow Bush (a roobois tea by Numi). Oh, and before I forget... W. I'm sorry, I think I forgot to bring my cup to the kitchen. Forgive me.but back...
rather productive night... which seems unusual for me. I need to come up with an idea for a group project for this cultural resistance symposium for my course on communication and culture. This week we're discussing feminism in relation to the Dove Real Beauty Campaign and I'm thinking of doing something along those lines, but I still want it to be original and...
Here's a little beatnik poetry that I did not perform at tonight's open mic at the local coffee house staffed by simple barristas. "Why did I not perform this poem?" you ask. Well I can assure you it was not because of stage fright as there was no stage. In fact I did not even attend this evening's open mic night at the...
Here's a scene from my Friday evening out... a pair of very mod friends (boy and girl, mod in the stylish dress sort of way not so much the riding of motor scooters) are out for dinner at a rather trashy diner. The waitress approaches the two with her order pad and pen poised to take their order. "Have you decided?" the waitress...
I'm feeling like I'm stretching myself in too many directions right now. It's a bit frustrating because there are so many things that I have on the go right now, but at the same time I feel like I'm not paying enough attention to any of the things I'm involved in. On top of all that I'm feeling a lot like I did...

You scored as Elizabeth Bennet. As one of Austen's most beloved characters, Elizabeth Bennet represents what most women would like to become: strong, independent, and loyal. Of course, she has her faults including a stubborn will of iron and a clinging to first impressions.

keeps the doctor away Originally uploaded by *raffaella. some might scoff... but being on the computer when you're feeling a little tired (or feeling like total junk like I was this afternoon and so far this evening) is no different than watching a little tv. And since I have no tv to watch and I did not have enough energy to concentrate on...
I'm not going to run the risk of losing another blog post from dashblog, at least not tonight anyhow, so I've returned to the basics (the basics that is just blogger, even barer bones as I'm using Safari and not Firefox). I have no real purpose for this post, I just felt like writing something before bed. I read something interesting today on...
hmm...not good. I just lost a lovely blog entry that I just spent the last twenty minutes typing up using dashblog widget from my dashboard. Now I'm not pointing fingers or anything like that, I know that these things happen from time to time, not everything is perfect... but it's still very annoying because it was a lovely blog post where I talked...
