Meeting Wendy in Washington

See! Proof I went to Washington DC and met Wendy! Unfortunately, Wendy was eaten by a shark while we were in the Museum of Natural History. Sorry Dr. Phil.

Travels and Travails

So I have to say that I had a fabulous time in Denver hanging out with Anne and Janiece and Jeri. What I enjoyed the most was the opportunity to talk and laugh and relax and be silly. It allowed me to come back to work today feeling far more capable and personable than I [...]

UCF Visitor

I got company on Sunday! Specifically, neurondoc, her spouse and offspring! I made pizza, and received assistance in decorating the pizza; then we had oreos for dessert. Mmmm! (Yes, you should be jealous.) Also, neurondoc’s daughter is apparently part bumblebee, and is very fond of pollen. My assistant and I made pizza. Me and neurondoc. AND I even got LOOT! [...]

How I became a Woman of International Intrigue and Mystery

I woke up this morning to discover that the UCF has been outed. I expect the phone to start ringing off the hook any minute; perhaps I can get Valerie Plame to give me some advice on dealing with all the press now that my life of secrecy is over. So what is this secret organization [...]

Apple Butter

While we were gone, apple butter from Janiece arrived. Being a good granddaughter, I opened the box to make sure nothing had broken, and then closed the box back up for my grandmother. Since we did the Grandmom exchange with my aunt today, Grandmom finally opened the apple butter. The jar is now sitting by her chair–presumably so [...]

Fun Fun Wherever I Go

So we were in the midwest for Kim & Mike’s wedding, and as usual, I managed to amuse myself. We found an “Alaskan Fur Store” in Jackson, which may or may not explain Alaskans. Sorry. None of you were worth $34.99 (or even $24.99 without tail) for a highly disturbing joke. However, you may be pleased to [...]

Loot!

I actually got two postcards today. One from my cousin Ben who is in grad school in California, and the other from Nathan. Nathan’s postcard is a lovely shot of the mountains across the lake, and although my backyard doesn’t quite look like that, the postcard is quite lovely. However. 82 cents in postage? Really? Nathan, you do realize [...]

LAX!

By the way, I’m a jerk, because I’ve totally forgotten to thank Ilya for his lovely postcard. Those are lovely guns, and it’s best I not be around them when angry. And I also forgot to mention that I TOTALLY WON Jim’s contest! (Go read the entries only if you are not faint of heart.) I’d [...]

Headlines, Part the Second

NOTE: I apologize. I know I’ve not covered everyone, but this is where things led me. I’ll try and rectify my exclusions later. You were asking about the UCF? Here’s a scrapbook of headlines and articles that tell the story. (more…)

Headlines, Part the First

Once again, the UCF is playing games. Jeri came up with the idea of writing headlines for the members of the UCF. Of course you don’t have to be a member of the UCF to do so, and are thus welcome to post your headlines about me here. Because I’m a difficult person, I’ll be posting my stories/headlines [...]
