The Iron Girl

I guess it isn’t all Jane Lawless, after all. I didn’t love The Iron Girl but I sure liked it more than Stage Fright. How many women has Jane Lawless been through? She has bedded more women than, errrr, well a lot of women.

I think I like the Sophie Greenway mysteries better than the Jane Lawless mysteries – which is too bad since Sophie isn’t a dyke and it’s odd too because all of the food is just not “me”. But there you have it, I’m a contradiction.

What sort of year was it

Nickie’s year in review was good.  Mine, not so good.  Interesting though.

January:  I mentioned in my ABC’s of 2005 that six MP3 players have come through
our home this year and now you folks get my oh so knowledgable review.

February:  Once again I find myself pining away for a cooking gadget.

March:  Happy Pig Day!

April:  April snuck up on me.

May:  Nuthinfancy
is on vacation so I may be the only one posting "What is this doing in
my house, Monday" but that’s ok because my entry is good.

June: 
Happy National Doughnut Day – courtesy of Krispy Kreme.

July:  July has arrived and that means it is time to review. 

August:  I am still traveling and have very little time to write but I’m getting
really sort of annoyed and troubled by some of the blog posts I’m
reading regarding Blogher’s cliques, celebrities and queers.

September: 
Tomorrow is my sister’s birthday so today’s cupcake topper will be in her honor – Oscar the Grouch.

October:   Since September is about survival around here I didn’t expect to scratch many items off the list.

November:  This post is really just for the Gainesville folks, the rest of you will be bored to tears. 

December:  It’s National Cookie Cutter Week!

Grab the first line of the first blog entry each month and post your review.

Link Dump – That’s So Gay Version

Time flies and there’s nothing I can do to change that. Which ROTS because it means I have all sorts of fun gay topics that I’ve just not had time to blog about. So, I’m doing a gay link dump. Click and enjoy and I couldn’t pass up just a brief comment about each one of these.

World AIDS Day 2006

Support World AIDS Day

From the World AIDS Campaign: Efforts to halt AIDS are falling far short of their targets. Over 25 million people have been lost to AIDS so far, and 4.3 million people were infected with HIV this year. The spread of HIV is quickening – with more people infected in 2006 than in any previous year. This is despite the number of promises by world leaders to provide services to curb the rates of infection and to bring down deaths.

    I’ll be watching And the Band Played On again soon, Eddie. I’ll be thinking of you, and then of so many others. I’ll cry and hurt and then become enraged, for you and for them. And Eddie, you were wrong one last time. They still haven’t found a cure.

And then, go visit Karen Walrond at Chookooloonks.  Leave a comment – she’s donating $1 for every comment to the Cyril Ross Nursery.  Karen is awesome, and this is just more proof.

Daily Dose of Life – 101 Update

November was the best month EVER for this 101 things list.  No I haven’t managed anything as excellent as drinking Vos water.  We haven’t bought a whaley boy car or the perfect house (though we are actually LOOKING for the perfect house, which is sort of a step in the right direction).  No traveling was done at all and I spent absolutely no "mommy & me" time with anyone.

I did boring things like clean out my blogroll, clean out my spurls and my bookmarks.  I read a ton of non-fiction (have I mentioned I read a lot more non-fiction than I originally thought?) and I sent more birthday cards.

Sounds like a boring month for the 101 things list, doesn’t it?  Well that’s because you aren’t aware of the BEST thing EVER. 

Christopher’s dead white Toyota – is GONE from our driveway.  Gone. For. Good.  Donated to charity.  Amazing.  If I can magic that car away, then I can do ANYTHING! EVERYTHING! The sky! It is the limit! 

I love November.
