It is Strange/I Reckon
It is strange how sneezes can feel like a moment of temporary healing. When you feel a sneeze coming around the corner but then it passes you by, life hurts. This week I watched eight year old Emily Klein perform as Tree #2 in the grand production, “The Three Trees.” Listening to 150 eight year […]

Holy Hotness, Captain.
It is Pasadena’s Bike to Work week. I think my city is terrific for celebrating such things. Today is the official “Bike to work” day, replete with BBQs and such at Town Hall. Don’t worry. I plan on winning some dorky raffle in the heat.

Vote, Rock the.
Just a reminder, the voting booth closes in 1.75 hours, if you would like to compete for the naming of the Muxtape. The prize is an illustrious homemade mix tape/CD made in your honor. There are currently 15 submissions, set forth as a sort celebrity death match between Mel and a Slumbering One.

The Wildfires are Subsiding
The Santa Anita fires started blazing on Saturday and they have just now been brought under control. It was strange to be so close to them, to see them wave and crackle from just outside my door. Sierre Madre is the quaint town right next door to us, and they were evacuated. p.s. I wrote […]

I Listen to Music Too Loud
I’m in the library, with the iPod in ear. I’m getting work done, flying along like a good little girl, and not one, but two people politely ask if I can “please turn the music down?” It is true. I listen to music loud. And I’m not ashamed. Trying to be helpful, I moved down […]

On the Mend and So-saucey
I am on the mend (hooray!) and am grateful that Mr. Stomach Bugg ensured that I got some unexpected rest from work, and movie-watching time, and general exhaling. I thought I should let you know that I have written a few entries over at Sosauce, and expect to write a few more this week. (I’ll […]

Ziggy the Cat
If I had something witty to write on this evening’s photo, I’d surely send it to the funny cats at I Can Has Cheezburger. But alas, the stomach buggies have stolen my wit.

Yes, Mama, I’m Getting Plenty of Liquids
I have been in bed with the stomach bug for a the last two days or so. No one particularly likes buggies. I am resting a lot, and reading a lot, and trying to catch up on my work a lot. And saltines are my friend.

So-Saucey
Before we commence with the non-written February, let me tell you about Sosauce. Sosauce is the newest, hippest, most-thoughtful social networking platform yet. It combines elements of blogging, travel-logging, photo-sharing, and networking, and is focused on user-generated content. Unlike Myspace/Facebook, Sosauce majors on people sharing good stories–stories that will provoke us to live differently. It […]

Oh, February Comes With Pictures.
I would like to offer an explanation for the unnecessarily narcissistic new header. I have decided that in February I will let this blog rest from words. I will continue to post, but without any paragraphs. I am going to do a photo-a-day February, and see what happens. I will likely put a word or […]

Rest, Ahead
I’m fairly certain that sometime after the first of the year I am going to let this blog rest for some time. I’m not yet sure for how long, yet. But I just thought I’d let you know. I’ll likely post a few more times before the blog-sabbath, but I know it is nearing […]

Easterly Primaries
I am flying home for Christmas. It’s all East from here. The sun is shining yellow. The sky is happy blue. I have my red pillow with me.
