A Quick Thanks

Thanks to everyone who voted for my friend Brian’s “Casket” ad for Doritos. It aired during the Superbowl last night but, alas, did not win the million. However, it’s still very exciting for everyone involved. And we’re even more proud of Brian, who spent last week in Haiti doing relief work. What a world. Haiti one day, Superbowl the next.

We got some snow. Saturday morning Lisa and I decided to take a walk so I could pull out my much-neglected camera. I got some nice, if not generic, winter wonderland shots. It felt good, and the cinnamon latte I got at the Starbucks we walked to felt even better. Yesterday I was also inspired to pull out my yarn and I began knitting a scarf. We watched 500 Days of Summer, I balanced my checkbook and did laundry, and shoveled the driveway. Today I baked jelly donut cupcakes to take to work tomorrow. It was a good weekend. More snow photos after the jump. Continued…

Darwinism at Work

The key phrase in this story is obviously “…after consuming an unknown quantity of alcohol.”

Pop-Culture Tattoos

Pop Candy showcases fans’ pop-culture ink. Friend of Freakgirl.com Jill (aka The Nerdy Bird) is featured in the piece — and her tattoo is the coolest one, IMO.

“Everybody Hurts” Charity Single

This charity single for Haiti, a remake of REM’s “Everybody Hurts,” is just depressing as hell. Why anyone would want to listen to this voluntarily is beyond me. It’s the feel-good song of the year! Even Robbie can’t save it. Continued…

LOST Cupcakes

Wishing I had time today to cruise over to Rutherford and pick up some of these. If you’ve never been to Sweet Avenue, you should. Their cupcakes are DELISH, and vegan to boot! I really need to do some baking. Maybe this weekend…
