Hedy has a sister!

E & I got home from the Carrboro Music Festival and I checked my email and found this out:
Margaret Elizabeth was born [at home, I think] just before 5:30am September 30th. 7lbs 4 oz, 21 inches long.
Congratulations Joanna and Kale!  I love her name and can’t wait to see her and her big sister!

Random Party Links

Just a small mystery link round-up.  I was looking this list and imagining what the party would be like if these people were the guests.  This woman has a big belly and that child is in for a big surprise in the next week or two.  I NEVER get a phone in the toilet…lucky!  The [...]

Things bugging me…

Some interesting caterpillars have made their home in our garden. Do you know what they are?
E and I have had a somewhat lazy day with a trip to the farmer’s market & WSM and then back home for some school work.  I briefly freaked out because I realized I didn’t get a form into [...]

ACL recap!

I can’t believe it has been a week since the festival!  It was a good music festival group with B-rad, Dr H., and (man of mystery) Eric attending.  The music was great with M.I.A., Steve Earle, Yo La Tengo (even in a noon time slot), the Decemberists, Wilco, and Zap Mama being some of the [...]

head update & weekend activitives

Just a quick update on my head–it is healing and looks 150% better. However, as I sit here at WSM, my usual Dr. (voted one of the best in the triangle) walked by and I found myself trying to hide the scratch…feeling like I let him down.
Stef is in town this weekend and we’re [...]

New Google trick

You can now embed selections from public domain books in Google Book Search in your blogs:

This is pretty cool! Here are the directions.
I think there are also a lot of possible images out there on Google Book Search that are in the public domain to be harvested for note cards or shirts.

You should see the other guy…

I am having fun hanging out with Shannon, Sarah, and Sarah’s fun, generous family in the Outer Banks this Labor Day. I got down here, flew kites with Shannon, had a great home-cooked meal, won $5 in poker, and then won the Darwin Award of the week by swimming into the wall of the [...]
