June 2006

June 30, 2006: Old business
Comments: 5 | Categories: Awesome
Oh my stars and garters I think I finally got the redesign to work. If you are only reading the feed, go look! Validate me! Tell me I'm pretty! And let me know if you see any bugs. For those...

June 29, 2006: Loads of love, Grandma
Comments: 1 | Categories: Family , When I was a kid
The first thing I thought of when my mom and dad told us that we were moving to Italy was: What about Grandma and Grandpa? I was ten years old and, in my ten-year-old opinion, terrifically mature, but I still...

June 28, 2006: Anniversary v3.0
Comments: 5 | Categories: Awesome , Phillip
Years 19 and 20 were not particularly dignified ones in the Mighty Maggie Space Time Continuum. Year 19 was spent pathetically pining and brooding for the devastatingly handsome Chinese man down the hall from my dorm room, who paid not...

June 27, 2006: Is it bigger than a breadbox?
Comments: 1 | Categories: Cranky , Phillip
Last night I holed myself up in the little yellow bedroom determined to redesign this thing. Which is kind of dumb, because no one looks at actual blogs anymore as they are all using a holy and sainted invention called...

June 26, 2006: Hot time summer in the city
Comments: 1 | Categories: Cranky
I love summer. I love gardening and flip flops and grilling hamburgers and playing frisbee and all the incessant checking to see if I have even the semblance of a tan. I love the sun. I even love days like...

June 25, 2006: Except for the sunburn
Comments: 0 | Categories: Awesome
You know how, when you were 12 or 13, and your parents wouldn't let you stay at your friend's house and your hair never looked right and your brother embarrassed you in front of the high school kids and you...

June 22, 2006: More blather about babies
Comments: 1 | Categories: Ponder
My neighbors told us quite a while ago that they were expecting. I forgot about it (we have a rather large grudge against these neighbors), although every once in a while I would see the wife and notice she certainly...

June 21, 2006: Solstice
Comments: 0 | Categories: Anxiety
Today is the Summer Solstice, the longest day of the year. In Seattle we celebrate the solstice by watching a parade of naked men riding bicycles. You think I jest. I do not, although the parade organizers conveniently left that...

June 19, 2006: Weekend in Hong Kouver
Comments: 5 | Categories: Awesome , Family
Phillip and I knew there was only one thing in the world his dad would want for Father's Day, so Saturday morning we filled up the car and headed for Richmond, BC, home of the only acceptable Chinese food in...

June 18, 2006: There are still 2 hours left of Father's Day on the West Coast
Comments: 0 | Categories: Family
My dad, even when he retires, even though he's taught fifth grade and seventh grade and been the librarian, will always be, to me, a sixth grade teacher. He has a podium, he reads Save Queen of Sheba and lets...
