“The idea is for everyone I’ve ever known […] to meet up in one place at a specific time in 2011” – Yes, I will be there. Oh, and sometime in 2010, probably March, C & I will finally have an actual wedding party. (whoa. that’s only 2 yrs from now!)(tags: personal)

“Allows you to offer readers both a full post feed and a summary feed” — coming soon here. it looks like it possibly breaks links, so I’ll give a warning first.

I still really want to put together a small cookbook with my favorite recipes and their mods. some recipes are online, others in books, others scrawled on random bits of paper. Plus I still have the cookbook Edith made me in college.

“aquaponics allows anyone to grow vegetables and fish” — that is frigging awesome. I want to do that.

that sounds pretty yummy. I have a jar of cranberries in the freezer that I bought fresh last winter. perhaps it’s time to do something with it….

🙁 I met Anita once, in Nov. 2002 at a panel about blogging & journalism, and she left a couple of comments in my blog long ago. I always wanted to talk to her again, but going to meetups in Seattle or on the eastside is such a freaking hassle.(tags: blogosphere)

“Automatically opting members in to electronic newsletters — and opting them out of snail mail campaigns.” — that 2nd half is the “radical” bit, from what I’ve seen.

Oh, wow. Very cool, maybe also a little freaky. I’ve been using Picnik on the Mac, as I have been too cheap to get PhotoShop, not successful thus far installing The Gimp, and haven’t put the time into setting up iPhoto.(tags: photography)

for a long time we had a rice cooker that I bought at the CMT Yard Sale. It had belonged to Mona for years before that. worked pretty well, but finally gave out a couple of years ago.

I’m trying to articulate why this contest bugs me. I think it’s related to the inclusion of snowboarding in a web design conference. WTF?(tags: web_dev)

some interesting stuff in the comments. I find myself a little bit too emotional about the whole thing. It’s possible that I’ve not entirely gotten over BEING 13 and woefully unhappy.

I5 under water, still. Chehalis River hit almost 10 feet over flood stage. (For readers outside the area, this is the county just south of me.) Big chunks of Grays Harbor County, west of here, are w/out power. 5 of the credit union’s branches have been c(tags: local)

That’s just a cool freaking picture, although damned if I know why, exactly. (I enjoy the “splorpist” photos in Joe’s blog; if I carried my camera more often, that’s the sort of pictures I’d like to take.)(tags: photography weird)

“I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute” — there’s so much good to quote here that I’ll just leave it with that line. To be honest, the contrast with now is so strong that it almost made me cry. (via alykat)
