Maymont Park in Richmond, Virginia is so beautiful. There's no place else like it.

Bad blogger; bad, bad!

Just coasting around, checking on all my semi-abandoned blogs. I have nothing to say really. Haven't done anything exciting, except I went to Fallingwater a few weeks ago. Got sick... again. That is all!

A Multi-level abode

I hope everyone is doing well. I am such a turd for not keeping up with you all.

Tap, tap, tap. Is this thing on?

nobody@vox.com(Teresa) — Sat, 15 Aug 2009 17:23:35 -0400

Or what I have been doing since June 22, 2009 (the day of my last post).

1. Still working at an undisclosed military location somewhere on the east coast. Gotta love the Marines! Jogging by, wearing shorts and sweaty t-shirts... all running in unison... all muscular beyond belief... all young enough to be my sons.

2. Won a TypePad/Cisco Million Acts of Green design prize. Still have not redeemed my winnings. Think I forgot what I did with it. Got some Typepad Swag, though... to go with my Vox swag... to go with my Wordpress swag. Boy, I seem to have a lot of blog swag just laying around the house. Does this mean I blog a lot?

3. Currently writing the equivaliant of a New York Times Best Seller over on "one of my other blogs". Have 800 readers breathing down my neck every day. Wish I could chuck it all and fade back into obsurity, but I made this bed and must lie in it. Not putting up a link on purpose. My VOX buddies will surely think I am deranged if they knew the subject matter of the story.

4. Have lost 30 pounds doing the low carb thing. Have about 20 more to go. All in my gut. Low carb is the only thing that ever works for me.

5. Thinking about going to see Julia/Julie or Julie/Julia (or whatever it's called). This story appeals to me for some reason, don't know why. Amy Adams' voice drives me to drink.

6. And speaking of drinking... drinking Sangiovese at the moment. On third glass. Obviously not going to the movies tonight.

Are you into the Environment? Are you also into Ninjas?

nobody@vox.com(Teresa) — Tue, 16 Jun 2009 20:30:53 -0400

Well, if you've got the adhesive backed label paper to make stickers, then I've got the Environmental Ninjas...

I was channeling Spock and Star Trek for a few days and was surprised when I realized that I'd given them all Vulcan eyebrows...

I am still as broke as can be, but that does not stop me from planning my yearly vaction

nobody@vox.com(Teresa) — Sun, 17 May 2009 13:51:23 -0400

Last year, it was Albuquerque, this year was supposed to be Iceland... but since I was laid off for four months, my finances are only now starting to recover.

Iceland, even with it's current economic crisis might just be a little on the expensive side... airfare (that I can not use my Skymiles for), hotel (that I can not use my hotel points or get free meals at... you get the picture.)

So, I have settled on a driving tour of the western United States. At first, I was considering a cross country drive and flying home, but scratch that, I'm thinking about doing a circular type tour.

The starting point will either be Denver or Salt Lake City, Up to the Grand Tetons (which I have longed to see) across Montana and Idaho and into Washington State (with so many sights that I want to see that I'll probably stay there a few days) down into Oregon, and continuing on with the obligatory stop in my most favorite favorite city in the world, San Fransisco (where I'm having trouble deciding what to do afterward... go up to Yosemite (which I adore) or drive down to Santa Barbara (but really only to gorge on Danish pastry in Solvang).

I could care less about LA, so I would coast on by on my way to Las Vegas... which I care even less for, but only as a means of getting into Arizona and possibly back to Albuquerque... and perhaps finally see hot air ballons.

I love the west and I really don't know why I don't already live there...

Speaking of travel, I'm off to Boston for my daughter's graduation, basically doing the fly in/fly-out thing. This time tomorrow I'll be sitting under the hot sun and listening to a line of neverending commence speakers... one of which just happens to be Ken Burns (I know, right! I love him)

Will you still love me, even after I come back from WordCamp?

nobody@vox.com(Teresa) — Fri, 08 May 2009 21:15:18 -0400

Yes, you heard right, I'm going to WordCamp to fraternize with the "enemy".

*Snort* Hardly "enemies". I hear tell that Mr. Dash is actually giving a speech.

In a past life I must have been raised by Old Order Amish

Currently reading "Little Earthquakes" by Jennifer Weiner.

Today, I have learned more about food, sex, foodsex, bathmats and what sexually repressed young men do with them then I have ever wanted to know... EVER!
