Welcome
by Denise Sawicki on August 1, 2006

Not a lot happens in my life that I feel I can talk about publicly! There's my work, but we all know you can't talk about that. We're involved in a politcal thing that, if life were like an episode of Monk, would surely get us all killed. There's people in my thoughts who wouldn't want me mentioning them.

Therefore, here is a picture of a sheltie!



Also, I am mildly curious today about the fate of numberonemusic.com. I always kind of figured it was a scam, and now it's been missing for two days. My husband's band had a site up there. We gave them money. Oh well. It was a small price to pay for a couple months of him feeling that his band actually had fans. I feel it *should* have fans, but that is just me.

Great. I've been looking for that shirt ever since I visited.

I hope you didn't give too much money to the other site. Maybe they're about to launch a new site too? Probably not.

Well, the site is back I guess. I still think it's fake. When you post questions on their forum that seem to hint at the fakeness of the whole thing, they delete the questions. Now the forum itself is missing. Maybe it'll come back too. *shrug*

That's my shirt, silly... I was surprised Phil looked so handsome in a human shirt. He's pretty small.

Stuff you may not realize about me :)

I don't know if people realize this, but I do talk, and I do have a sense of humor of a sort... it's just that it's only with Darrell and Darrin that these things come out! It seems my frame of reference for the world is quite a bit different than most people's. Go »

Halloween

We got some pretty scary masks at KMart. Darrin went as a "Crypt Creature" and Darrell went as a werewolf. That is actually me in the skeleton mask but you'd never guess from this picture. Go »

Nostalgia from TV shows

We're watching some high school shows lately, notably Freaks and Geeks, which I love, also My So-Called Life which I hesitate to admit I find hard to get into... Anyway Freaks and Geeks sure makes me jealous of the friendships those characters had in high school. Nobody would ever make a show about my high school experience. Go »

Who are you calling a pipsqueak?

So now we have moved on to watching Fullmetal Alchemist. We borrowed season 1 from the library. I quite like it. Go »

The Two Towers

So last week Darrell's friend Mike discovered on Wikipedia that Galesburg, North Dakota, a town near where Darrell and Darrin grew up and where they often hung out at the cafe, actually has the third tallest structure in the world. I find the photo on the wikipedia page rather amusing, by the way, due to its unusual dimensions. Upon discovering this, Mike, Darrell, and Darrin immediately drove out to pay the tower a visit.

Ghost of an Unkissed Kiss

As though I don't look bad enough for sharing information on my lame celebrity crushes, here's a real-life one, albeit a really old one. I'd forgotten that his full name was in the movie we watched the other day and maybe hearing his name was what got me started on this nostalgic path. He's got a common name. Go »
