Well, the Blogcation was a smashing success. Many extra-mad props are due to Charlie and Jenni, who filled in while I was gone. Thanks for keeping things hopping over here, you guys!
I return with a rejuvenated spirit, a rested mind, and, uh, not much to say. Lessons learned this weekend:
1) Parties: good.
2) What not to do when confronted by a fridge full of 40-ouncers.
3) Graffiti artist: yet another item to be crossed off my "possible career choice" list. (Damn, that list is getting short! I really hope that whole "being the girl with the big headdress who stands on galloping horses and does backflips" thing works out.)
4) My apartment: not nearly cool enough.
5) Loony-birds, and why one should not agree to do freelance work for them.
5a) Failing that, at least knowing when to not answer the phone.
Yep, not much substance to me at all at the moment. I do, however, have a wee announcement. As you are no doubt aware due to the tireless efforts of our marketing department, this Wednesday, July 23, is Funny Face Day at the Leisure Agency. If you are the exhibitionist type, I would be most grateful if you were to send in your best funny-face photos to add to the Agency's pictoral commemoration of the day. Please e-mail me by Friday if you'd like to take part.
Edited to add to the miscellany: Okay, does the reporting in this story strike anyone else as a bit...euphemistic? Note, for example, the title. "Crows help rescue abandoned baby." Uh, yeah. Okay. If that's what you want to believe, more power to you. But I really, really don't think those crows had rescuing in mind.
