Happy Birthday! (Belatedly... no, you're birthday was right on time... it's just my birthday wish that's belated... am I overexplaining?)

This once broken computer monitor has found a new life as a fun, daring & bright cat bed. My cat loves to have cozy places to hang out & sit while I work. And I love recycling, and altering objects. So this cat bed was born.

I love this! Too bad we just gave away our old monitors a few months ago...
- Rochelle
It is such a great idea! I still have a large monitor in use - it works and as a grad student, a new one doesn't seem like a necessary purchase - but when I get a new one some day this would be a cool way to recycle it!

Enchiladas, lazy Sundays, used books, the word: diaspora, flowers in bloom, the enthusiasm with which a dog wags it's tail, hot baths, letters sealed with wax stamps, athletic thighs, tropical rum based mixed drinks, the album "War" by U2, the line: 'My mother is a fish.' spoken by Vardaman in Faulkner's As I Lay Dying.

Today on Facebook, I explained what an oxymoron is to my middle school relative. She didn't get this status update http://friendfeed.com/k8s... in which I noted that "vegan leather" is one. For my troubles, I received this response: "im crying; itz not fun to learn on Sat." I'm happy to drop a little learning on the kids when asked, but what did she expect?
"Artist Stephen Wiltshire has been hard at work this week drawing the Manhattan skyline from memory over at Pratt. He only took a 20 minute helicopter ride prior to getting started, "during which time he impressed on his mind thousands of landmarks, great and small.""

I feel so much better, now I've got the two things off my chest that were getting me pissed this morning. Now for some more coffee! It's a wonderful day!
I am really enjoying my first attempt at NaNoWriMo. It's good for a little self discipline. It's good to get some cobwebs out of my brain. It's good to work towards a daily and monthly target, and it's good to improve my decidedly average writing skills.
Perhaps I missed something? Mork and Mindy. Mind you, I'm in Google Chrome, right now, where I have no sound on Flash movies like youtube.
- Ian May
"NaNoWriMo" made me think of nanu nanu.. Why no sound? I use chrome..

I think it's a flash player issue. I don't use Chrome much much - I have to go back to FF a lot of the time to use the plugins I want anyway.
- Ian May
After switching to Google Chrome, I would not go back to Firefox for anything..
- David Gross

Firefox runs just fine on my netbook too. Sweet as a nut under Karmic
- Ian May
I had Firefox on my Ubuntu partition and it did run good.. I think Microsoft does something to mess it up in windows, is that possible?;)
- David Gross

microsoft mess up firefox? So it runs crappy like IE you mean?

I mean RAN past tense.. Havent used in windows for a couple years, startup was slow. I also like simplicity of chrome so stayed with it.

Oh #bunneh - I just found a picture on my camera of my kitteh basking in your friendfeed glow! That's you in that tiny avatar thumbnail. She's in the one above it as my avatar. Perhaps that's a little too meta.
That's pretty much her favorite place to sit - that is, with the exception of those times when her little furry head is actually on the keyboard.

This game is with the same person with whom I played games titled "Alles Klar Herr Kommisar" and "Rock Me Amadeus." We seem to be stuck in the '80s

These donuts are not from Krispy Kreme. They are also much tastier than Krispy Kreme. For the record, that's 2 chocolate frosted donuts, 2 apple cider donuts, and 2 sour cream donuts.
Is it food porn time again? Donuts don't work for me, so you can show me as many pictures of them as you like haha.
- Ian May
I couldn't eat donuts for a long time after the summer I worked at a grocery store bakery. Every morning I was there around 4am frosting donuts. The smell of donuts and most breakfast pastries disgusted me for a quite some time. Now, I'm just very very picky about donuts. These happen to be very good. Their cake donuts, especially the sour cream donuts, are excellent and they are always super-fresh. .
