Next month is October and as I’ve said, we always do Halloween up big at our office. Last year I found out about BOO baskets and I started [...]

A Little of This, A Little of That

Monday, September 24th, 2007

I’m not enjoying not having a laptop. I miss Daisy. She’s off being repaired and I am currently on a loaner laptop that is the slowest thing ever. It takes a thousand years just to load one page - going on myspace is an absolute nightmare). So if I’m not commenting on your blog or [...]

I used to count uterus’. I was about a year and half to two [...]

REALLY. BAD. DAY.

I AM VISIBLE

Thursday, September 6th, 2007

This past weekend we went to a party. It was a birthday party and people were asked to recount loving memories of the birthday person. My husband stood up and discussed his connections to this person. Maybe in one sentence he briefly mentioned our wedding, which was a mostly traditional/modern Chinese wedding.
