Queen Elizabeth II famously described 1992 as an “Annus Horribilis.” Yesterday was a “Dies Horribilis” for me. Every petty thing that could go wrong did go wrong. True, things could be much worse, but knowing that does not make the bluebird of happiness fly merrily around my head, tweeting, until I finally get fed up…

Six Facts About Me, Requested by Lady N
The gorgeous and outgoing Lady N has tagged me, so I’m going to list six facts about myself. I’m not going to tag anyone else because I fear everyone has been tagged a million times (I think Lady N got to all the untagged people!). But if you haven’t been tagged and feel like doing…
Guess What Happens on November 1?
Pumpkins are taken in back of the barn and shot. Great. Now PETA (Pumpkin Euthanasia is Tragic Always!) is going to be all over my ass. In other news — and I know this is going to hurt you much more than it hurts me, as my high school English teacher used to say —…
Niceness Alert!
Once in a while, something great happens that I didn’t expect or even know I wanted, and I am so happy that, upon reflection, I realize it was secretly my one and only desire all along and that I will never want anything again. Unfortunately, the “never want anything again” part only lasts a minute…

Technorati Is Sorry. So Very, Very Sorry.
Sorry :~( This is the third time since I started blogging in July that I’ve gotten that irritating “sorry” message with sad face from Technorati. Is my blog really “under review”? Are latex leggings and Anne Boleyn controversial? Perhaps my desire for fish feet is in such bad taste that I’ve been singled out for…
The Ones That Got Away
It seems fish feet are everywhere, yet I cannot procure the fish feet of my dreams. The Manolo discovered these fish flip-flops (fish-flops?) via Unknown Highway. Maybe they’d be better as high-heel fish-flops My search for the Christian Louboutin fish shoes continues. Behind Big Glasses is trying to divert me with elephant feet. Nice try,…
Consolation Prize
My obsession: the beauteous Christian Louboutin Pesce shoes. During my never-ending quest for fish feet, I found a young-adult book about a boy who wants to be a ballet dancer. I also found a female science blogger (you go, girl!). But alas, no fish shoes in my size. My gorgeous sister, Terri Berry, came up…
What You Need to Read
My gorgeous friend Cheryl Tan is a real journalist, and she’s in Milan, blogging her little fingers off. Go read her shizz or I’ll open a can of J. Lo on your ass! That’s Cheryl on the right, giving me ‘tude. Earlier this month, Bryanboy (motto: “I’m so gay I sweat glitter”) did an interesting…
