Rubber Ducky Baby Sprinkle

One of my best, closest, oldest friends Jennie recently gave birth to her second child, a boy they named Colin Donovan.  I helped her two sisters to plan her first baby shower 5 years ago when she became a mom for the first time with the birth of her daughter Joy, and really enjoyed it.  I convinced her to let me throw her a baby “sprinkle” this time around.  Something smaller, more like a big picnic in her honor.  Ha… I should have known I don’t do anything half-ass!  This will be the first in a series about all the various facets of a baby sprinkle that really turned into a full-fledged rubber ducky baby shower!

Canine Diabetes is a Drag

Why is it that my poor pug Winston has to be like me in so many ways?  He could never see well, his ankles give out on him at random times, he was overweight, he snores, and now… he has canine diabetes.  Granted, he’s worse off than I am in the eyesight and diabetes departments – at least I can see with glasses and don’t have to take insulin… he’s pretty much totally blind now with his detached retinas and I have to give him an insulin shot once a day.  Le sigh…

Good People Day

Posted on Apr 3, 2008 in Career | 1 comment

So Gary Vaynerchuk at WineLibrary is at it again, enthusiastically making up holidays as he fancies. He’s come up with April 3rd as Good People Day, a day to thank those that help you, inspire you, etc. He explains it better than I, so here:

So I’m left to wondering who I should thank. I guess there’s several peeps out there that inspire me. Here we go, in no particular order.

  • Anne Casanova, my manager. She’s awesome!
  • Sam Harrelson. A great blogger, generally nice and helpful guy.
  • All the people I follow on twitter for constant entertainment.
  • All the people who read my blog. Y’all rock and give me a good motivation to keep talking.
  • The GeekCast crew for making me laugh hysterically once a week, so big ups to Jim Kukral, Lisa Picarille, Shawn Collins, and Sam Harrelson once again.
  • My best friends ever for always being there for me, Katie Shaw, Lorenza Martinez, Rachel Nuckols, and Jennifer Morrill. None of them are big interwebbers, so no links!
  • Karen Garcia is a great for random questions via Twitter. So is Deborah Loxly!
