Oh my Goddess! It’s horrible! It’s awful! It’s… Not On The First Date – a Utah-based reality series that bears an uncanny (read: plagarized) resemblence to Blind Date.

Monday, October 31st, 2005

I won an award last night for “Funniest” costume at the All Souls Ball. Pictures forthcoming. Sunstave Samhain was awesome. Pictures forthcoming.

Sick

Saturday, October 29th, 2005

Not feeling so good today. I started feeling sick on the ride home last night, and it just got worse from there. My sister made nummy seafood chowder on Thursday night. It didn’t taste quite so nummy coming back last night. Belch. Craig and Alexia went to the zoo today. They look adorable. Alexia is [...]

Friday, October 28th, 2005

Alexia is in town for the weekend! I got home last night to find her and Craig playing in the leaves in the backyard… It’s a big news day for the Sundance Film Festival (which, as you all know doesn’t affect me in the least since I work some other place called “Bob’s Event”). While [...]

How can this be? A Utah City Council is hesitant at selling prime real estate to the church? Then I read [...]

In Which Our Hero Watches Nasty Cartoon Orgies

Thursday, October 27th, 2005

I just got home from our monthly leader’s group for the SEMI Circle program at church. My group – the Rhinestone Circle – begins a week from Monday. I’m excited about this because I think it will be nice to start meeting a few people who aren’t in my usual group. I’m waiting up for [...]

Rosa Parks

Tuesday, October 25th, 2005

Rosa Parks Dies at 92 Wow. What an amazing woman. More than almost any other moment in history, we have a single moment of defiance, of refusing to be a part of the injustice, that grew to be so much larger, so much more than a single woman and a single act. The phrase is [...]
