Meeting my online friends

Wednesday, January 30th, 2008

I first started exploring the world of blogs sometime in the fall of 2004.  I was turned on to them through an article in the New York Times by blogger Heather L. Hunter (yes, I went back to look for the exact story).  I checked out her blog, which led me to other blogs, some […]

My first book

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Last Friday afternoon, I got a call from the Library at St. Joe’s.  They were calling to say that the bound copies of my thesis were in.  This afternoon I drove over to pick them up.  It was strange to be back on campus, mostly because I didn’t feel much in the way of missing […]

Swimming in the Stream

Friday, January 25th, 2008

I’ve always felt particularly fortunate to have grown up in a house in which there was always music. Many Saturday mornings my dad would make pancakes and then pull out his guitar so that my sister and I could dance and sing. Occasionally, I can still convince him to recreate those childhood mornings, […]

Standing around, staring at a baby

Thursday, January 24th, 2008

After that last blog post, promising more good stuff, I’ve totally dropped the blogging ball and have ignored Apartment 2024 for the last couple of day.  Apparently, I’m something of a blog-tease.
Some of my LA cousins have been in town this week (they are so glamorous!) and so I’ve spent a bit of time hanging […]

A promise for more, better posting in the very near future

Monday, January 21st, 2008

Somehow, I’ve managed to seriously neglect this space over the last week.  And sadly, it’s not going to improve right at this very moment.  Consider this post as something akin to a blog “lick and promise.”  However, as a taste of things to come, here are some of the things I want to write about […]

An update on my drifty-ness

Tuesday, January 15th, 2008

Slowly but surely, my apartment is starting to come together.  Since my roommate moved out, I’ve shifted books from living room to bedroom to den.  I’ve vacuumed, cleaned closets, dusted and organized.  I’ve wiped down shelves, drilled new holes for cables and taken apart my little office space in the corner of my dining room.  […]

Raina Rose, mugging for the camera

Monday, January 14th, 2008

My sister emailed me earlier tonight, asking if I had any recent pictures of her that she could potentially use for a poster she’s putting together. Her request sent me flipping through my iPhoto archives, looking for images. Here’s what I came up with (my sister is both silly and adorable, not a […]

Fork You: Live Salad

Sunday, January 13th, 2008

The edited version of last weekend’s Fork You Live is now available for viewing. It was a challenge for Scott to take what was a very entertaining hour of footage and bring it down to 13 minutes but I think he did a darn fine job of it. I hope you enjoy!

Signs, lunch, ice cream, cats and meditation

Wednesday, January 9th, 2008

One of the fun things about showing up at Foster’s on Saturday was the fact that before we even walked through the doors, we were greeted by the sign you see to the left. You see, I had done most of the set-up and planning with the folks at Foster’s and so they weren’t […]

Driving across the Freemont Bridge

Tuesday, January 8th, 2008

The picture you see above was taken as my sister and I drove across the Freemont Bridge in Portland (the morning we got up ridiculously early to go to the REI Garage Sale).  When I was in high school, we lived near this bridge and so it was one I used a lot to get […]
