My 2012 365 Project

Wicker monkey on 365 Project

Over at 365 Project I’m posting a new picture every day. Not the most artful or thoughtful picture, just the picture that sums up my day.

At the end of each month I’m planning to post a short story (or maybe a series of connected story fragments) that are inspired by that month’s photos. I can guarantee a complete lack of reality or fact in those posts – that’s the point! I haven’t quite figured out the format for those posts yet, but it’s almost the end of January so I guess I should figure it out!

Stop SOPA

by meanlouise on January 18, 2012

in cyberculture, politics, privacy

Instead of going entirely dark today to protest SOPA and PIPA, I’m linking to the Electronic Frontier Foundation so you can learn more and (hopefully) get engaged in this fight.

I have so many things to update you on, my loyal readers, that I don’t know where to begin. Consequently, I keep logging in and then getting so tangled up trying to organized my thoughts that I lose several hours to the Manatee cam and then, oops, time to get to school. Wild Manatee Cam [...]

Charles Addams 100th Birthday

by meanlouise January 7, 2012 art

Today’s the 100th anniversary of the birth of Charles Addams. [embedded video: Addam's Family theme song] You can stream the original tv show on Netflix (but not on Hulu). Needless to say, when we bought a house I spent a lot of time tracking down a wicker peacock chair like Morticia’s. I haven’t seen The [...]

Five Star Friday

by meanlouise January 6, 2012 cyberculture

Between the behind-the-scenes work here and on the meatblog and the complete rebuilding of fishinnards.com” post-hacking, I’ve been online more than ever this week but with less than ever to show for it here. Go figure. Fortunately, there’s Schmutzie’s ever-fab five star friday post to fill the gaping void I’m leaving in your life. Go [...]

Yikes!

by meanlouise January 3, 2012 pop culture

I don’t believe I’ve ever neglected my blog for nearly a month, before. What can I say? Time flies. End of the semester. Lots of cookies to eat. Yeti movie marathon on SyFy. Stomach virus. Home improvement. Laziness. More cookies. Iowa Caucus. Blah. Blah. Blah. It’s cold and windy and suddenly winter here in Virginia. [...]

Shocking!

by meanlouise December 5, 2011 humor

I’m detoxing from too much CNN by just watching this clip over and over. It seems to be working out okay for me. This probably isn’t safe for work. I can never tell anymore since I don’t work with other people – and even when I did, they weren’t really safe for work. share the [...]
