Movin' on - Thursday, May 21st 2009 4:37 PM
Here we go, kids! It's finally time! Unfortunately, I can't give the occasion the attention it deserves, because I am just too distractible. But it is my blogging anniversary...
There really are people named Valarie! - Friday, May 15th 2009 1:31 PM
...But they tend to have bad websites...One thing that has always mystified me is the number of people who try to spell my name Valarie...even though I have never heard of an...
Yep. Famous. - Wednesday, May 13th 2009 11:08 PM
You know you've arrived when people start stealing your artwork on the Internet.The image on this page (of the glass bottle, plastic bottle, and aluminum can) is something I...
I have graduated from compulsive Facebook updating to compulsive blogging. - Saturday, May 9th 2009 1:16 PM
This morning, my hometown made the front page of the Washington Post! Its distinction? An exceptional rate of unemployment. Good to know that I come from such an illustrious...
Yes, it's fun being passive-aggressive, but... - Friday, May 8th 2009 6:57 PM
I think it's high time to leave the realm of sarcastic commentary on what is wrong with all the people I'm too chicken to confront, and talk about something relatively harmless....
How to Make a Phone Call - Wednesday, May 6th 2009 5:40 PM
So as you all know, I'd rather die a thousand deaths (by something quick and painless but maybe not by strangulation) than make a cold call. What I've recently rediscovered is...
Grocery Store Etiquette - Tuesday, April 28th 2009 8:59 PM
I wrote a whole test on this topic and I encourage you to take it. But if you want rapid enlightenment, feel free to read this little essay on two of the most annoying things...
Church of the Park - Friday, April 17th 2009 7:18 PM
Excuse me while I wax philosophical. I've been pretty unstable the past few days. Mostly it had to do with the usual suspects--my various social failings and the inevitability...
My 2 cents on IE 6 - Wednesday, April 15th 2009 9:42 PM
Yes, I know you don't care. Yes, I'm going to write about it anyway. With absolutely no basis in research, I have concluded that as a web designer, I should no longer bend over...
Update - Saturday, April 11th 2009 3:10 PM
Things are not looking good on the graduation front.I wrote to the program director to act pitiful and ask if maybe they really were offering Portfolio next semester, or if I...
Nooooooooooooooooooo ooooooo! - Thursday, April 9th 2009 11:04 AM
I was dreaming of sunshine. I thought I was going to graduate next December and would be free to move out of Maryland. And then I tried to register for classes.The last...
More stuff I heard on the radio - Wednesday, April 8th 2009 1:35 PM
Woohoo, I'm liking this new radio kick I'm on, because it's giving me all sorts of (arguably) good stuff to blog about. Have you ever listened to "This American Life" on NPR? As...
Not really always the bridesmaid either - Friday, April 3rd 2009 4:58 PM
I never participated in a real wedding before, but now I'm going to be a bridesmaid in May and I've had to throw myself into the nuptial fray. Wow! Talk about stress! I walked...
Fun with grammatical analysis, Poe allusion(s) (I edited the other one out) and a little bit about saving the planet - Sunday, March 29th 2009 11:41 PM
I took my mother's wise advice and decided not to participate in the carbon-spewing candlelight vigil during Earth Hour (which also happened to be during a particularly nasty...
All the new music - Friday, March 27th 2009 8:37 PM
After a long hiatus, I have begun listening to popular music on the radio again. I was on this kick where I'd listen to pretty much anything (country, latin, classical, rock,...
Valerie is too tall. Or is she really tiny? Could she be both? - Wednesday, March 25th 2009 12:46 PM
Yep, here comes another entry full of self-absorption and petulance. Skip over it if you're inclined to be annoyed.Over the years, I have discovered many things to dislike about...
Here I am, back to ruminating on my social inadequacy - Friday, March 20th 2009 9:25 PM
Lately, I've rediscovered the joys of online chatting. On a particularly productive day, I might find myself chatting with one person on Facebook, one on OKcupid, and another on...
- Sunday, March 15th 2009 9:14 PM
On the whole (except for my glaring lack of social life), this hasn't been a bad day. I wasn't sick any more. Work seemed to go pretty fast, I had a reasonably good time, stayed...
Punctuation snobbery - Tuesday, March 10th 2009 11:03 PM
Oh, I'm torn! Torn between following the rules and following my heart! Torn between doing what I'm told and doing what I want! Torn between working and playing around (actually...
Thinking... - Tuesday, March 10th 2009 11:18 AM
I've been thinking a lot about thoughts. How people think. The patterns that thoughts take when they are being made. Some people think like power tools, spinning madly about...
Another freakish day in Valerie-land - Thursday, March 5th 2009 11:32 PM

The backspace key SHOULD NOT serve as a back button. - Sunday, March 1st 2009 6:06 PM
This is a lesson on stupid software design.I just spent 20 minutes writing some long-winded passage that I'm sure you didn't want to read anyway, when I somehow hit the wrong...
An update on Zoot - Monday, February 23rd 2009 10:05 PM
I didn't exactly get a plethora of responses on my poll about Zoot, but that's OK, because I'm just going to ignore them all and do my own thing anyway! I really just needed to...
Poor Zoot - Thursday, February 19th 2009 6:46 PM
I just took my car to the shop because it was getting kind of hard to ignore the big grease spot on the driveway from my oil leak. According to the mechanic, there was a big...
Valerie's Guide to Dating Valerie - Tuesday, February 17th 2009 11:37 AM
