Fruit and Vegetables

Over on Facebook, several of my friends were posting this meme of ten favorite albums, “no explanations.”  The “no explanations” aspect of the record meme made it just a bunch of random covers someone posted. Since I have an eclectic, arguably terrible music tastes, I started my own un-meme using fruits an vegetables.  I’m also going to add some recipes and […]

3s of Me

The final piece I wanted to preserve from the upcoming Facepocalypse was a meme known as the “3s of Me.”  The original one landing my way had a lot of “not applicables”, perhaps being written for someone with zero likelihood of shuttling a mini-van-ful of kids to ballet.  I ignored it.  Then, John Chawner posted his and took some liberties.  Tagged, […]

What I would like to see from you (and see less of) on Facebook

Claire posted a lovely note that I (and I’m sure you) have thought about writing.  I liked it so much, that I’m co-opting and adapting it slightly to my own quirkiness. I know you don’t post things on Facebook to specifically entertain me.  (Sure, in my fantasy world, I occasionally indulge in thinking that’s why you’re posting…)  But what the heck, […]

Album Cover Challenge

Continuing the cleanup, I present the second of three Facebook memes that I still find both benign and entertaining, the Album Cover Challenge.  Like the others, I felt funny about any implied social obligation in “tagging” someone, so I toned down the mandatoriness a couple of notches. This is the original post.  Do check out Wai Fong Fung‘s other photos […]

100 Books, Omnibus edition

In anticipation of the Facepocalpyse, I’ve been cleaning out some of my FB profile of nuggets I’d like to save on my own blog – today’s is the 100 Books, Omnibus Edition, based on a recurring meme that I see pop up every fortnight.  In concept, I don’t mind this one as much because who doesn’t like lists.  However, when both of these […]

Rock Liebster

I happily report that this blog has been nominated for The Liebster Blog Award by Horse Bits.  I was expecting a focus on ritualistic hazing, drinking and debauchery, followed by debauchery and drinking.  But in reading John’s intro paragraph, I am corrected that the intent is for the little folk (blogs with fewer than 200 followers) to answer eleven questions […]

Friday linkery

The Outlook “inbox” at work represents things I haven’t processed (responded to, deleted, filed). I’ve been aggressively working to keep it below 20 items, but inevitably after a trip, it bumps back up. It’s above 50, and increasing. This really bugs me, but as I’m pretty exhausted from 2 months of busting the product release out the door, I’ve been […]
