I Am Here!

I am here. Temporarily. Popping back over to Everyday Song to say hello and stalk some of my favorite virtual friends. Hello! (Look for a lurky comment on your blogs soon!)

Blog Her in Arrears: Where’s the Beef?

Last year I happened upon a link to Blog Her and emailed a friend to carpool. The conference was in Chicago and within driving distance from Minneapolis. Cheap in comparison to some high-tech conferences I’ve attended, I wasn’t on Twitter and my blog embodied the game “Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon,” m

Other People’s Kids

Sitting in the airport…finally…without kids, I feel compelled to write about them.

Packing Heat

Evolve Your Blog

Here’s my top-secret equation for life balance: .1(X) + .4(Y) + .5(Z) = Sleep Exhaustion Where, X = personal blogging, Y = new technology, and Z = 1/3 kids, 1/3 personal interest, and 1/3 entropy.
