Sara Writes Stuff Sometimes

Wow

nobody@vox.com(Sara) — Mon, 26 Oct 2009 00:34:58 -0700

I haven't blogged in a long time, and I have been very bad about keeping up before that as well. I never thought grad school would be so all-consuming, but it is. I am doing well, and am discovering that I am pretty dang talented at this teachin...

HELP ME CHOOSE A WEDDING DRESS!!!

nobody@vox.com(Sara) — Sun, 02 Aug 2009 19:32:55 -0700

Yes, yes, I have been entirely absent for far too long, and then I suddenly show up screaming bloody murder and asking for help, when really, I should have been here all along, filling you all in instead of ignoring everyone. Sigh. I am dismayed...

Homemade, handmade won ton soup

nobody@vox.com(Sara) — Thu, 05 Mar 2009 10:45:04 -0800

I made this yummy soup- on Monday. It was delish, but took a lot of prep time, because I made the won tons myself. You can save the won tons in the freezer for a few months if need be, and you don't even need to thaw them when finally putting th...

Homemade Valentine's Day (all handmade, all the time)

nobody@vox.com(Sara) — Tue, 17 Feb 2009 07:31:10 -0800

This year has been fantastic thus far, even though I lost my job right after the New Year, and even though we are only halfway through the second month. Am I frontloading the year and dooming myself to a crappy succession of ten and a half month...

A Story I Wrote When I Was Ten

nobody@vox.com(Sara) — Wed, 07 Jan 2009 03:35:00 -0800

[Ok, so I really did write this when I was ten. You can tell it's old school because I write like an idiot, and say things like "Jedi warrior" instead of "Jedi knight." Also, I can't account for how my heroine (a not at all disguised older versi...

Hello there!

nobody@vox.com(Sara) — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 06:36:38 -0800

So. We are moved into the house. Nothing is organized, but everyone has a place to sleep. It's all a bit more expensive than we thought, and we pretty much have no money. The furnace is acting up, and our water heater is not functioning right now...

Trying to write about Tim Shea Day feels impossible sometimes...

nobody@vox.com(Sara) — Thu, 29 May 2008 19:18:08 -0700

There is so much to say, and yet it feels like a task I am unworthy to do. I have a hundred little stories I want to tell, and then I feel empty inside. Each time I reach into myself to bring a story forth, it eludes my grasp.. I feel tired ju...

Reasons To Love Mike Patton (All Simile Edition)

nobody@vox.com(Sara) — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 10:31:56 -0700

Screams like a girl. Sings like a crooner. Growls like Satan. Holds a microphone like it's a weapon. Dances like he's possessed. Grimaces like he's constipated. Every word he speaks sounds like an orgasm. Wears sexy like it's going out of s...
