"Now or Never"

I have been going back and forth about this show for the last season or so. Sometimes I love it, other times I just want to strangle Shonda Rhimes and anyone else responsible for ruining what once was the best show on television.

The season finale was almost completely redemptive for me, and after reading another blog about Grey's, I've discovered why. Since I can't put it into words, I'll let that blog do it for me:

"I wish I was able to go into this one pristine, but I wasn't, and I still liked a lot of it. During those fallow periods in the middle of the last few seasons, people kept asking me why I was still watching and/or blogging about "Grey's Anatomy." This last batch of episodes is why. This show is a free-swinging power hitter. When it swings and misses, it looks horrendous. But when it connects with the pitch it wants, all you can do is sit back and admire it."

That's it! "When it swings and misses, it looks horrendous. But when it connects with the pitch it wants, all you can do is sit back and admire it."

I will now remove my hypothetical fingers from Shonda Rhimes neck, and sit back and admire her work.

what makes me happy

after a more than stressful week, i think the best thing to do is remind myself what makes me happy:

Happy, maybe... peace, yes.


my dear jeffrey, who despite the craziness stress brings can still make me laugh.

It's sinful how much chocolate I've eaten lately...

I will add soon.

Right now, Jeffrey is coming to take me for a relaxing day of movies, food, and movies. Another thing to be grateful for.

happy birthday, camie -- it works now.


Jeff and I have been working on the Farnworth DVDs and came across this cute clip. I thought it was fitting.

Happy Birthday!

Sorry, I had the YouTube video set to private, and then realized it wouldn't work on my blog. Try it again. It should work.

job portfolio

I realized today that I have not updated with my job portfolio website.

Anyone who wants to see what I have been up to academically and professionally. I designed the HTML, graphics, and content for the entire site.
