Gah, I know. I find that my ability to write blog posts here (I've written plenty elsewhere, for clients and causes and whatnot) has failed a little in the past year or so. I don't really know why. Too burned out from my day-to-day work? Too ... http://www.megfowler.com/2010/02/22/stuff-things-more-stuff-oh-my/ Happy 33rd, my dearest! http://www.megfowler.com/2010/02/03/songs-for-gradon/ Today is Gradon's 33rd birthday, and so I'm posting things all day at my blog that celebrate who he is.

Not only is it cloudy (I keep typing "cloudly" when I mean to type "cloudy", which makes me think of "studly". Then I try to picture what "studly" weather might ... http://www.megfowler.com/2010/01/25/monday-love-list-because-i-can-and-i-should/ (from 2006) It's time to admit... that I don’t understand how the stock market works. that I nearly blinded a man with a jujube. that I used to have dreams that people turned into wolves when I turned my back on them. that I have never been to see Disneyland or Disneyworld or a chiropractor. that ... http://www.megfowler.com/2010/01/24/a-replay-from-way-back/ Hey, everyone. I'm working on a bunch of posts right now on a variety of subjects, but it seems more important right now to send you a link to a way to help the people of Haiti. My Uncle Dave has been working in Haiti for years with his organization, Hope ... http://www.megfowler.com/2010/01/22/please-help/ I don't think he remembers this either way, but I think it's no accident that the post that was up at my blog the first time I exchanged any words with Gradon was this one. At least he knew what he was getting into. And before it? This one. Which prepared ... http://www.megfowler.com/2010/01/19/noteworthy/
