I’m depressed about my job tonight. I won’t go into details; it’s petty stuff. But it makes me wish I could just curl up in bed for a few days and watch tv, read, and cry a lot.
I’ve always had a difficult relationship with work. Jobs. Whatever. I never worked any one place for [...]
Our internet hasn’t been working very well most of the week, which is why I have failed to post, even though I’ve had a few things I wanted to write about. So here are those few things, better late than never. Hope your opinion is the same.
1st, Boy was that Emmy’s show Sunday night terrible, [...]
Enjoying an afternoon snack of nutella slathered toast and Constant Comment tea. Reading design blogs. Enjoying the early autumn breeze coming through the windows. Pretending my house isn’t a mess. Feeling content.
In other news, a belated Happy Anniversary to my husband, Mark. Married 7 years on September 22. Our first date was 13 years ago [...]
Look, Martha Stewart is having a blog contest. And she’s giving tips!
Picking apples at the local apple orchard and eating freshly made apple turnovers.
Making caramel apples.
Putting up Halloween Decorations.
Fall Flowers on the doorstep.
Lots and lots of candy corn.
Oh how I love Fall! And you all are like “I know, Alison. Enough already!” Bah, more fall to come. It’s only the beginning. And the equinox isn’t even [...]

BRAD’S VEGGIE CASSEROLES
2 heads broccoli
1 head cauliflower
1 1/2 lbs. sharp cheddar cheese
1 1/2 lbs. Monterey Jack cheese
2 cans cream of [...]
I guess I think I have enough time on my hands to have multiple blogs. I guess I need more creative outlets in my life. I guess I went and made a new blog, this one about Iowa City. It’s called The ICicle. Alrighty then.
On September 11, 2001 I was living in Austin, Texas working as an administrative assistant in the Recreational Sports programs office of the University of Texas. I assisted the program directors of Outdoor Recreation and Sport Clubs (from Soccer to Yachting). I also helped sign up college students and faculty and staff for Intramural sports, [...]
I am so excited it is September (although as we get closer to November I get more and more nervous and scared about the election–go Obama!). I love Autumn and I know it isn’t officially Autumn yet, unofficially it is just because it is September and the air is cooler and the stores are putting [...]
Like that movie Deja Vu which I recorded on my dvr a few weeks back and watched and didn’t quite get any subversiveness out of but found it entertaining if not a little silly especially for Adam Goldberg’s hair. Bouffant. These scientists or whatever they are find a way to fold the future up against [...]
