Books and I'm a hero?
Books: The big entertainment story this week is, of course, that New Moon is in theaters today. As I did with Twilight, I'll wait for DVD. This means I won't be anywhere declaring that I'm for Team Edward or Team Jacob. But I did finish reading Graceling today, so for now, I'll just be on team Po...

A friend recently let me know about Skreened, a website that allows users to upload and print their own designs to tee shirts. I've opened up shop there, mostly for my own fun but also to allow other people to purchase my creations. My storefront can be found here.

Extended through Feb.!
*L* I just noticed that the "Chihuly Toledo!" exhibit has been extended through February 3rd since the last time I'd checked the dates. We're still going today though. I have my heart set on a trip to the museum now. :)
Sloughing off the stress
The challenges of the past few weeks are now history. Mia has a reservation for boarding, we're ready for our trip to Ireland, work is caught up for the first time since I took that job years ago, our sewer and water main will be replaced while we're away, and my sister and I managed to actually...

Andrew Brandou Mystic Garden
My office recently moved to Downtown Culver City which means close to restaurants and the CuCi gallery district. I took a long stroll to the Corey Helford Gallery to see Andrew Brandou's new work, Mystic Garden. It's a bit of a departure from his last show, but still very colorful. The show closes...

What was your favorite class in high school? (And no, lunch doesn't count.) Well, hey, I haven't answered one of these in a good long time. My favorite class in high school would have to be Challenge. I loved Challenge because it allowed me to leave class when we weren't doing anything useful, and...
Seraphine
