I am probably an awful person for finding this story so funny. Mountain man terrifying Utah cabin owners. I guess it’s less funny when it’s not happening to you, and/or more funny when you currently wake up three times a night to check on your car and see if you need to chase anyone down the street with your old closet rod. Ah, good old relateable news. Share the post “Get offa my mountain!” FacebookPinterestShare…Email Continue reading

Every time I look at this terrifying dungeon guy and his 11 pages of pictures of his own forehead, I laugh so hard. I almost fell into the kitty litter tonight when I thought about it. Such a serial killer. Share the post “MY FOREHEAD” FacebookPinterestShare…Email Continue reading
The resolution of this milestone photo is due to a crappy Blackberry camera, not the TV on which the age was displayed. I “for real legit” felt physically weak for … a week. I was waiting for a toe or two to mend before I got back into my routine tonight. This was a nice (but deserving) surprise. I worked hard tonight. I wouldn’t have wanted to smell me. Also, ahhh, the stress relief. This week has been non-stop and it was good to get… Continue reading

Joel Plaskett – Somewhere Else Scrappy Happiness‘s anticipated release date is March 27, if you’re looking to buy me an early birthday gift.

Ever hear of the ‘appoggiatura‘? Interesting article about what makes us want to bawl our eyes out while listening to pretty, pretty songs. I’m willing to bet Fleet Foxes know about this phenomena and purposely lace each heart-tugging mountaineer folk tune with a quota of 10 or more. From the linked article: Twenty years ago, the British psychologist John Sloboda conducted a simple experiment. He asked music lovers to identify passages of songs that reliably set off a physical reaction, such as tears or goose… Continue reading
The Hunger Games is a brilliantly dark and fun read. I don’t care how emo that makes me sound. I don’t know if this is another of those Harry Potter/Twilight fad books (and since Katniss Everdeen’s name keeps coming up on Doodle or Die I’m guessing it is) but it kept my interest the whole way through and turned out to be a really great read. Thank you, 17 year old girl I know who recommended it. And speaking of 17 year old girls, bad… Continue reading

Coffee from a pot, even a premium blend, is half as cheap as K-Cups (so I’m guessing Tassimo too), is more environmentally sound, and it tastes better. I mean, I could’ve done the math myself but why bother when someone else is willing? Overall both costs make me happy I don’t buy from Tim Hortons much anymore (except during Rim time). I guess there is a way to recycle Tassimo discs. Dump the non-plastic contents (grinds, whatever) into organics. Or just stick to the coffee pot.… Continue reading
