15 to 21
Week 3 of Project 365 (including some you've already seen, oops):
Our next-door neighbors had two sons. The golden boy died an early death of a brain hemorrhage, and the survivor is a fifty-year-old crack addict who spends some weeks wandering up and down the block by day and sleeping on his parents' porch in a plastic lawn chair by night. This morning I noticed a beer can in the breakfast tray on our porch and knew immediately where it came from. Either that or Simon found it on the sidewalk and put it aside to be taken out with the recycling next Tuesday. The answer lies at the other end of this question: Do crackheads drink Fireside Chat brand Spiced Winter Ale?

Elsewhere:
Me at Work It, Mom: Grousing about Simon putting family before work. Yeah, you read that right.
Me at MamaPop: Top Five "As Seen on TV" Products that Don't Suck. Is your favorite on the list?
Simon at MamaPop: The latest Toddlers and Tiaras recap (sometimes it's funny, sometimes it's sad, sometimes you spend the whole hour bracing yourself for the pea soup vomit) and a whatever-happened-to-Vern-Tessio's-older-brother retrospective of the best and worst of the Young Guns. (I...I don't know either.)
At Style Lush: Zodiac Style for Ophiuchus (by me), plus some other favorites to bookmark--Books for a Nine-Year-Old Girl (or maybe just your own inner nine-year-old girl), Scrapbook in a Bottle, and Etsy's Valentine's Day Love.
Sharing the love, sharing the love, sharing the love.
Full feed! I love it, although I hope you weren't seriously bullied into it. :)
I SECOND, THIRD, and FOURTH the love of the full feed!
Thanks, you guys. I'm actually really cranky about the full feed (will all my ad revenue disappear? and will it be worth that loss if reader engagement increases?), but things were starting to feel really lonely and depressing around here, so I thought that might be a place to start.
It's been an interesting exercise to weigh (much needed!) money against (much needed!) community and connection.
What the heck is a full feed?
Stopping by for the first time! Love your blog!
