Sewing an explosive device into your underwear: not the most brilliant idea in the world.

Happy New Year, my friends! I survived the Holidaze... hope y'all did too!

Let's plan something BIG, COLORFUL and SEQUIN-Y for 2010!

Merry Christmas, Happy Chanukah, Happy Winter Solstice, Happy Kwanzaa, Merry Universal Health Care, everyone!

... and remember: that ugly, ill-fitting Holiday Sweater you're thinking of returning to the department store may mean the loss of some Innocent Shop Girl's sales commission, so, instead, take a moment or two to think about how you might make it work in your wardrobe!!!!!

Thinking Aloud...

I've been having this urge to just break out of my box somehow, get some of that Glinka energy back. I feel stale and like I'm in a big rut. I'm facing a super-busy work schedule full of stress for the next 2-3 weeks... not full of Holiday Cheer. Instead, full of Holiday Retail Hell, though at least I'll be making some $$$.

Adam Lambert is my American Idol...

"Precious" is the must-see movie of the year.

I'm drawing in my paper journal and it has been oddly satisfying.

If I could make these words even bigger, I would. My blogging skillz are so limited!

When did Christmas become about buying sweaters? I've got to find a new job at some point in the near future.

Meditation has been helping.

Hope all y'all are well. (whoever's still checking in, that is!)
