A quickie Happy Birthday

As of 48 hours ago, I have orbited the sun twenty-two times. Weeee!

I wanted to tell you

I wanted to tell you I liked it better when you were God-like. Now that I realise you’re only human I can see you suck at being one.

 
I am glad I kept it to myself. It’s just a shame that now you’ll always think it was my fault.

E.Webscapes is hiring

As you may know, I do custom blog designs with the team at E.Webscapes. With such a growing demand for design services and all the orders coming in, Lisa is looking to bring another designer or two on board. The official design blog entry has all the requirements and details, so if it sounds like something you’d be interested in head on over and drop her a line.

Elf Yourself

I’ve been elfed!

Smilies updated

Potato head

I’m not a big fan of odd fashion. Saw a girl today with a rather interesting piece of head wear – it looked like a potato sack with a draw string, except instead of a bottom there was a hole, and into this hole she placed her head. It struck me as a very strange thing to want to do.
