Let's give a hand for the Evil Eye

This whole time I've neglected to mention that those surprise earrings I got for Christmas were made by Nat at Evil Eye Emporium. Thanks, Nat!


(Thanks also to Cinnamon and Brenda for their help!)

Hey Glamour readers!

For those of you coming here after reading the article on women bloggers in January's issue of Glamour, welcome. More about me here; older entries (including the one quoted in the magazine) are here and here, and yet more of my old entries are in my book, for which further information can be found here.


(Could I be more here here here! and click click click!? Sorry about that.)


And just what is this nutty blogging business, you ask? Oh, we'll tell you all about it.

Podcasts I Actually Listen To

As much as I love partially downloading and subquently deleting most podcasts, I've managed to find two that make it all the way onto my iPod. They are: John Hodgman's Little Gray Book Lectures and The Bat Segundo Show. I mean, I listen to them and everything!

Hit refresh some more!

Added some awesome new crappy-review quotes to the the list of randomly generated index page titles, courtesy of DeeDee "M." of Bentonville, AR, whose comments will be taken to heart, and whose last initial will never be taken too literally. Thanks, DeeDee!

Robert's Snow 2005

Starting November 6, wooden snowflakes painted by 200 children's book illustrators (including several I'm happy to have worked with) will be auctioned online for cancer research. If you bid on a cool snowflake like this one or this one or this one or otherwise spread the word, kindly let me know so that I can add you to my mental list of beautiful people.
