Go Elf Yourself

The OfficeMax application's not new, and I hate to link to CNN stuff for obvious reasons, but this is truly kind of funny.

Especially since they're out of sync.

Exercising the Demons

It's been a little too snowy/icy the last couple of days to sneak in a solid run.

I am a total Grumposaurus.

Adventures in Podcasting

Part Deux

Got the chance to chat with Captain Ed on his radio show today.

Hear it here. My intro starts around 2:45 in.

A Little Flakey

I know cats don't like water.

But I know cats like fluffy things that fly through the air.

So how do cats feel about snow?

Emmy was all excited to go outside until a flake hit her fur. Then not so much.

Happy First Snow of the Season Day.

We were on a break!

I think I'm going to take a short hiatus from digesting blog fodder for a couple of days.

The universe has got some bigger stuff in store which deserves my full emotional and creative attention.

I'll be back in full-on post mood - and mode - come Wednesday.

"You're Soaking In It"

Forgive me if you've heard this one before, but there is a restaurant in Virginia that serves dinner rolls dipped in butter accompanied by two scoops of whipped butter on the side.

Who picks up a sopping roll and proclaims, "You know what this needs? More butter!"?

UPDATE: My signif has informed me that I am required to disclose that I ate one.

Put a Little Glove in Your Heart

A couple of days ago, I wrote about seeing a small girl's mitten on the side of my running route. Someone else must have been fascinated by it too because yesterday, that mitten was perched on top of a column at the end of a footbridge. It'd been stretched out over the pillar like a rubber glove. From a distance, it looked like a hat. But as I jogged closer, I noticed it was my mystery mitten.

Odd.

Anyway, Happy December.

And go here for the book above. It's about all the stuff you can do with one mitten. Cute website.
