Muddy Mondays aren't all bad.

PVR has this amazing feature where it records Gossip Girl. I can watch the newest episode whenever I want, even the night it plays, and I can fast forward commericals. Ace! Is this a lame highlight?
Fortuantely it's not the only highlight of this Monday. There was this singing and dancing dog at the old age home where I volunteer Monday mornings. It was just a stuffed animal, but the old people were tripling over in laughter. Given, they're normally already doubled over.

Bad blogging.

I am not good at blogging. This never bothered me until I decided I want to stop being embarassed about my blog. I have strategized to improve my blog based on the preferences of follow. I will change to satisfy my followers.

  1. Numbered lists. They illude the reader into thinking they're learning an unfathomable fact.
  2. Short posts. They feel productive when they can read two posts in 5 minutes.
  3. Photos. They feel even more productive when they scroll SO far down the page quickly.
  4. Predicatable content. They want to know what is coming next and what to expect.
  5. Witty title. They want to impress friends by off-handly mentioning the blog they follow.

Taxidermy is art.

It has come to me naturally that I am fasinated in taxidermy. I feel like several of my childhood and recent experiences have sparked this interest. However, I am struggling with legitamizing the interest and also with getting my friends to appreciate it.

I prefer more traditional and realistic taxidermy, but I just listened to a lovely BBC interview of Polly Morgan. I think Polly Morgan will be the connection I need to get my friends to like taxidermy or at least like that I like taxidermy. She's young, pretty, and makes art that appeals to the indie crowd.
