Get out and vote

Two gems for you today. The first one is one of the many reasons why I hope you’re out there casting your vote this year. The second video is just some fun from Ron Howard.

Life lessons from election year mania

Gather ’round, boys and girls, for a life lesson straight from the mania induced by the last few weeks of this presidential election.

Too bad the object of their vehement shock is actually the Ohio state flag. D’oh! :D

Lesson: think before you speak. Remember that gem? :)

Full story here.

Balls

Balls, BTW, is my new favorite Joss Whedon expletive, as delivered in both Buffy and Dr. Horrible… but I digress…

Driving to Austin today, I wanted to stop and buy some fall mums as a housewarming gift for a friend. We pulled into the parking lot as they were coating the wire frames for this season’s batch of lighted figures. I still do a double-take when I see cows. I mean, you wouldn’t normally think of cattle as Christmas lighted figures. Then you gotta remember we’re in Texas. These aren’t just cows, they’re longhorns.

Well, funny thing is, we got out of the car and my sister grabbed my sleeve with a strangled laugh. “Becca,” she gasped, giggled, and pointed, “those cows have boy parts!”

Sure ‘nuf, these wireframes are anatomically correct bulls, not cows. I wonder who decided Christmas light-up wireframe longhorns needed to be anatomically correct? Gives a whole new Texas-style meaning to a cock and bull story… :D

New in my Etsy store

I’ve been digging through my jewelry supplies again, trying to reconnect my creativity with my hands. One of these days, I’ll get disciplined enough to spend regular chunks of time working on my creative outlets (mainly jewelry and writing). Always something I can aspire to! :) But here are the latest little trinkets uploaded to my Etsy store.
