Party Pictures

July 2, 2009July 3, 2009 Kate Harding

As most of you know, one of the reasons I've been largely absent from the blog recently is that I was planning my wedding reception -- for 6 months after the actual wedding. In another state. WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF A FUCKING BOOK TOUR. Boy, am I ever not going to repeat that mistake… Continue reading Party Pictures

Happy Birthday, Al!

June 21, 2009June 21, 2009 Kate Harding

He'll probably kill me for this, but I like acknowledging birthdays, and if his birthday isn't all about me, I don't know what is.   His present didn't arrive in time (read: I didn't order it in time), but I'm currently letting him sleep in and considering other generous and heartfelt expressions of love, such… Continue reading Happy Birthday, Al!

Today in Things I Wrote Elsewhere

Quickly: The Amazon Thing

April 13, 2009April 13, 2009 Kate Harding

I wrote about AmazonFail 2009 over at Broadsheet this morning, so if you've been dying to discuss it here, check that out and come back. One thing I didn't get to in that post (which got out-of-hand long very quickly) was this post at After Ellen, in which Sarah Warn reminds us that the problem… Continue reading Quickly: The Amazon Thing

Weekend Open Thread

April 3, 2009 Kate Harding

Sorry about the light posting this week, but FJ and SM have already offered their explanations, and mine is that my mother-in-law was in town and I was sick. (Comment on that combo from my Facebook page: "In a sitcom, this would be where you decide to repaint the bathroom, which goes horribly awry in… Continue reading Weekend Open Thread
