Moving on and settling down…all at once
This productivity is wearing me out.Posted by beth on November 1, 2010
Well, it’s been a very productive few days full of fun, friends, surprise visits and getting things done. Rock-o-Ween was a huge success. The only thing that didn’t happen the way I wanted was that my hair didn’t turn blond despite the fact that I left the dye on it for at least a full [...]
Busy Is Good (Mostly)Posted by beth on September 22, 2010
Whew, y’all. This week has just been non-stop so far. On Monday, I taught until 1:00, and then I went immediately over to the main ESL site to prepare for and lead a training that afternoon. All of Wake Tech’s ESL sites have blogs, see, and each site has a blogger who publishes two posts [...]
Making (Bad?) ChoicesPosted by beth on July 16, 2010
Here are my daytime options for the next two weeks: A) Work my butt off writing two articles a day so I won’t have to eat canned beans and spaghetti for the next month. B) Hang out with friends I’m not going to get to see much after I move. I have chosen to hang [...]
Back to the QuestionsPosted by beth on July 6, 2010
Well good golly, I had completely forgotten about my formspring page until I was notified earlier today that someone had asked me a question. And let me just tell you, it’s a doozy. We have to get through several more, however, before that one can have its turn. So let’s start where we left off, [...]
Sharing the LovePosted by beth on July 5, 2010
My virtual friend Elaine just nominated me for a Versatile Blogger Award. Thanks, Elaine!! We’ve never met, but I’m totally joining her writing group when I get back to Raleigh as I’m 99.8% sure that my schedule will allow it. I’m not sure why she only nominated me for the award instead of just giving [...]
Questions I Don’t Know How to AnswerPosted by beth on May 18, 2010
Today’s first question is this: Gain? Really, your reader demographic skews towards ads for Gain? And my best answer is…Yes? I honestly have no idea how my ads work. I don’t know if my reader demographic skews toward ads for cleaning supplies, or if BlogHer just has an agreement with all their advertisers to give [...]

QOTD (Question of the Day)Posted by beth on April 22, 2010
It’s Q&A time once again! Today’s question comes from formspring, and it’s a good one: What’s your advice for someone who wants to start a blog but is too scared of not saying anything meaningful/too intimidated by technology/ too lazy to actually do it? Well, this is really three questions, isn’t it? Oh what the [...]
Everybody Loves WinningPosted by beth on April 21, 2010
Even if what you win is a random object from a complete stranger’s bedroom or a made-up award, it always feels good to have won something, to feel validated in some way, to feel recognized as a human being. So the other day when my friend Andrea gave me this Beautiful Blog Award, well that [...]
Put Your Imagination Hat OnPosted by beth on April 20, 2010
Y’all. I am SO excited to be hosting my first legitimate GIVEAWAY!!! You may recall that I came into possession of some rather shady and/or unattractive items back in January and hosted several contests to get rid of them. And although the boat show was super-rad (I know, I know, I still haven’t posted the [...]
