And we’re back!

Wednesday, February 3rd, 2010

Yay! I thought of all kinds of things to blog about while the blog was broken but, of course, I can’t remember them now. One minor note—you might notice a slight lag when you comment. Just be patient a couple of seconds and it’ll go through. (Unless it thinks you’re a spammer, of course. It [...]

Technical difficulties

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

So the blog will temporarily be rather plain and difficult to navigate. My website design is actually a WordPress theme and, after switching hosts, it’s being slightly temperamental. At least with the default theme, the site’s useable.
Hopefully it’ll be pretty again soon!

One Lovely Blog (or 10 more things about me)

Saturday, January 23rd, 2010

See the shiny Natalie gave to me? It’s very pretty and I’m very thankful she thought of me and my blog. It also means I have to come up with a list of ten things to tell you guys about myself.
I’ve been blogging for five years now, so coming up with ten things you don’t [...]

Upgraded

Friday, October 30th, 2009

Thanks to a most awesome friend who generously did all the work, the blog is finally upgraded. (I’m embarrassed to admit how out of date my wordpress installation was.)
Yes, it did some funky things to some punctuation, including my excerpts. I’m not going to worry about that tonight, but we’ll get it fixed. (ETA: This [...]

Running amok on the internet today

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

First, you can find me at Romancing the Blog, where I’m giving my two cents on the new RITA changes. Well, maybe not a whole two cents. A penny’s worth, perhaps. Still mulling them over, seeing how I feel.
Then, I’m giving a glimpse of

RTB, ATVs and wildlife

Monday, May 18th, 2009

First, I’m at Romancing the Blog today, talking about the pitfalls of considering digital publishing a stepping stone to NY. Stop by!
I also updated the family’s ATV blog with some opening weekend pictures.
And finally, I DID IT! I’ve posted pictures of moose, both real and fake, a fox, and even a skunk named Barney, but [...]

Hey, it's my blog's birthday!

Thursday, January 1st, 2009

On January 1st, 2005, my first blog post went up, so we’re four years old today!
Dayum, time flies. The Tall Kid was nine, the Short Kid was four, and I was unpublished (for thirty more days). I think it would be kind of cool for me to sit and read the entire four years worth [...]

The real Shan

Wednesday, November 19th, 2008

I finally caved and there is an actual photograph of me on my bio page. It’s far from a professional headshot—the Short Kid and I were screwing around with my cellphone camera—but it’s the first picture in probably fifteen years I’ve liked. Maybe it was the photographer.
And, of course, the second picture is actually my [...]
