What Paula said.... minus a few years. And I might not even be fully bloomed. Maybe a bud stage.

probably the best idea i've ever had
Last week, I saw this at Reddit. I KNOW RIGHT?! I told the Twitter and the Google Plus and the Tumblr that we all need to print these things out and hang them up everywhere (it's legally allowed for us to do so. cough.) For the past four days, I've gotten lots of image links from people on the T...
I wish I had dreams where I was a Superhero(ine) who could fly. Every single one of my dreams that I can remember are about my job. I'm a grade 2 teacher!
And I love the "we worked on Star Trek stories" bit - you wrote it so well that I could see and hear it.

FedCon day one
The plan was to sleep for as close to 12 hours as possible, to reset my brain for local time. My brain, as usual, had plans of its own. I woke up after about four hours, and before I fully realized what was happening, I'd solved a fairly major story problem on this project I've been stalled on f...

I just wrapped up a year of academics after 6 years away from any formal studying so I need to get my creativity going. But daily? Might be asking a lot from my exam-atrophied brain.
Will think about it as brain activity starts to return to typical levels.

I have begun a new project, which until I come up with a better name is called Project Do Something Creative Every Day For The Rest Of The Year (Yes, This Includes Holidays). The first entry in PDSCEDFTROTY (YTIH) is a new episode of my neglected and long-overdue-for-updating podcast, Radio Free...
I gotta say that I'm getting a Jonathan Frakes vibe off the YouTube freeze shot. Anyone else? Or is it just me?

So, some of you may know that Evil Wil Wheaton is tormenting Sheldon Cooper again this Thursday at 8pm on CBS ... but for those of you who don't, I made a stupid video to help you remember: In other news, I did not book the job I auditioned for last week. The feedback I got was that I ga...
Thank you for sharing, Wil. It's a good trade - food, walks and some toys and return you have someone who is never stingy with affection. :-)

To celebrate the legacy of our awesome dog
Last year Anne and I raised some money for the Pasadena Humane Society in memory of our awesome dog, Ferris. When I wrote about it here, Anne said: Just over 8 years ago, I made a right turn instead of a left out of the Home Depot parking lot. That was a turn that would change our lives forev...
This is all kinds of win.

Wesley Crusher's Sweet-Ass Motherfucking Bouffant
When I was a teenager pretending to fly a spaceship, I got to do a lot of really cool things with a lot of really cool people. The price of admission to this wonderful world, though, was the most annoying hairdo I've ever experienced in my life. I called it Wesley's Helmet Hair, because it did n...

I'm going to be traveling like crazy for the next several weeks, so last week Anne and I took a couple days off to have a quick two day getaway. We went out to this hotel in the desert that we like, and spent about 36 hours sitting by the pool, doing a whole lot of nothing. It was glorious. The ...

Yesterday, I saw this video linked at Reddit. It's one of those things that I haven't thought about in years, but the instant I saw it, it unlocked some memories, one of which I left as a comment: I was a huge Night Court nerd when I was a kid, and from time to time I would ask Brent to do ...
Hope that you have an awesome time and as soon as you do we all get to read about it!

Greetings from Vancouver, where I sit high above the city, looking out over a balcony, through a sliding glass door that I dare not open, because single digit temperatures in Celsius are just as cold as their Fahrenheit cousins. If you're joining the broadcast late, I'm here for an episode of Eu...

When my friend Sean first told me about Twitter, I just didn't get it. "I already have a blog," I said. "Why would I want to tell anyone where I am or what I'm doing ... and why would anyone care?" Still, I signed up so I could have an account (I have to do a lot of this "defensive registering" ...
Sigh. "So much good stuff on the horizon".
I'm determined to maintain my optimism this year and this is a good reminder. Thank you.

A breath before it all begins, and I struggle to stay awake to ward off the passage of time. I want to stay right here, with healthy kids and a happy marriage and a good job, and everyone that matters to me alive and happy and healthy...and all of the things I always thought my life would be, r...

HAPPY NEW YEAR.
I spent the eve with friends of friends gaming - I think it was Rockband, not Singstar (I'm not a gamer at all but i am a literary geek)
In other GREAT news - Patrick Stewart on New Year Honours list. Sir Patrick!

This post is not a number, it is a free man. It also continues my 2009 year in review from part five, and concludes this obscenely long series of posts that I hope was worth the time I put into creating them. I revealed a fairly major secret, and there was much rejoicing. Yaaay. About 24 hours ...

While looking for something entirely-unrelated, I came across this old post from 2006. I read the entire post that it's excerpted from on Radio Free Burrito 17, but this part made me smile, so it gets its own spot right here on my bloggy-blog-blog:Though I've been there for several auditions, I ...

Steve Martin has a Christmas wish to share with you: (If you can't see Hulu videos, or just want the audio, YouTube has you covered. It's a Christmas miracle!) And here's my holiday wish, which isn't nearly as funny, but is at least (if not more) sincere: Whatever you choose to celebrate t...

Yesterday, I decided that I'd reach into The Vault a few times this week, and reprint some holiday-related posts. While I combed through the WWdN archives, I came across this post, which I haven't thought about pretty much since I wrote it. It has nothing to do with the holidays, but I still li...
