Daylight Awesome Time

03.12.07 – 22:03

I am so glad that the weather is thinking about being warm now. If I had known that eating my way to the top of the food chain would result in the loss of my insulating layer of fur, I would have put a lot more thought into it. My body likes Daylight Saving Time [...]

The world’s most-awaited blog post

03.05.07 – 21:03

Hooray for blogging and the indelible recording for posterity of conversations such as these: On January 13, Stephan and I went snowshoeing with my dad near Mt St Helens. Dad mentioned that in searching for an appropriate Bible verse to commemorate the occasion, he had found a recent translation that read “I lift my eyes [...]
