through a convoluted series of events that span almost an entire year and include writing classes and comic book fans, i’ve been invited to participate in a closed beta for an up and coming …um… let’s go with “conversation site.” they define themselves much better and it’s probably better for me to just quote [...]

so…it’s been a week. and then another week. …and then a third week? surely not. i think it’s only been the two. anyway, my “a week and then i’ll see,” week is totally up.
the first week was full of all sorts of potential planning. i didn’t get very [...]

wherein kelly throws herself a whiny pity party and decides upon review that she really doesn’t care about the tense shifting and inconsistent capitalization enough to do anything about it.
let’s recap, shall we?

don’t feel too neglected. it’s not like i’m making uber-regular updates on the baby blog.
i’m sort of in this “blah” or “meh” state right now. the baby’s doing its thing and baking quite nicely. it hasn’t given me too hard a time so far with symptoms and cravings, so i really shouldn’t complain. [...]

exercise regularly (once week by march, adding a “once” every week every quarter)

i’m actually not sure what bothers me about this spot. i think the fact that the gap’s using audrey to pimp clothing is actually more disturbing than pairing her funny-face dance with an AC/DC song.
i just know it is very, very wrong. if i shopped at the gap (or could wear skinny pants) i [...]

and interesting jobs/lives kill blogs.
you see, the majority of my posts have been composed at work with occasional at-home tweaking. now i have full days with interesting things to do that don’t really necessitate a “my brain will explode if i don’t remove myself from this place for a few minutes” break every few [...]

for reasons not thoroughly articulated until i was walking out the door, day 1 of the new job felt like a field trip. i can’t really even elaborate on what that feels like, just that’s how i felt all day. the reasons, identified at the end of the “trip” are that 1) i [...]
