I’ve never noticed that women smile more than men. And, this story does seem to suggest that they really don’t once gender rolls and power structures are equalized. Still, it does take as a given that generally it is true. I was speaking with a friend of mine a few days ago, and she casually…

I just read through some of my most recent entries (trying to bore myself to sleep – read the post below this one if you care about why). Not counting this post, I use the word “like” approximately 20 times in just the entries that haven’t archived off my front page. I don’t think that…

So, I was washing my sheets tonight for the first time in (oh, I don’t know, pick some incredibly disgusting number and then multiply by like 3 or 10). I got totally caught up in what I was doing, and forgot to put them in the drier. Now I have to wait 2 hours before…

The retouch button in iPhoto 2 is scary good. Seriously, it is amazing how smart this thing is. I assume it’s basically the healing brush from PhotoShop 7 – which I’ve yet to play around with, but OH MY GOD. I had this one photo of some friends’ kid who had some crumbs in her…

The word “interesting” appears in 70 out of 414 entries on this blog. That’s almost 17%. I am remarkably lame. My new mission is to strike that word from my vocabulary. From now on whenever I catch myself using the word “interesting”, I shall replace it with the word “???”. I don’t know. I wanted…
