    Always have lots of tabs open in my browser. There are even some days where I have multiple windows open, each window with a multitude of tabs going. I multitask and I find things (sites, pages, or pictures) in my internet travels that I want [...]

     
     

    Steampunk Open (Ware)house June 29, 2008

  • I have been allowed a bit more freedom on my bed rest in that I can go out from time to time, taking it slowly. I still feel the need to lay down and “take a load off” but I have been given the “okay” to do things like pre-natal yoga now as well as [...]

     
     

    Up With Upset

  • Ah the joys of indigestion. I am coming up on 35 weeks pregnant. The last few weeks I have been feeling the pains of indigestion. Oi! Somedays it is not so bad, but I have become friends with antacid. This is against my way of thinking and living. But desperate times call for certain measures.

    I [...]

  • I saw this pod on Current TV tonight. It was posted about a year ago. I found it interesting both in content as well as in production. Current TV has been bringing me some great content lately. I started really watching it regularly since Billy started working there about 3 weeks ago. There is so [...]

     
     

    Music and Dance Musings June 25, 2008

    Filed under: dance, music — Tags: , , , — Christine @ 11:59 pm —
  • This afternoon I headed over to Hype Machine looking for a little random music but got distracted almost right away by the animated banner ad at the top of the site. The words “Treasure Island” caught my eye. I wondered “what is going on on Treasure Island?” I have never actually set foot on it [...]

  • I may have already mentioned in my blog that I am going to miss my baby brother’s wedding in mid-July because of my bed rest and pregnancy. I cannot believe this is actually a fact. I keep hoping somehow I will be able to go. He lives in Portland, Oregon. I live in the San [...]

  • The other day Billy made me a breakfast that he called Toad In the Hole. It is a piece of bread with a circle cut out of the middle. In this hole goes an egg and the whole thing is fried an a pan. When I looked at it I thought it would be bland [...]
