Considering that I have roughly 475 cds and 500 books (here in my NY apt, I probably have another 400 [...]

Ok, I’m all for making up words.

I’ve been meaning to mention this for a while, but you should go over to FreeRice.com and play their vocabulary game. For each word you get right, they donate 20 grains of rice to hungry people across the world.

I’m stealing this straight off of Neil Gaiman’s journal because . . . well, because it’s a damn good sentiment and reminder to myself as well as the people I care about–which includes each and every visiter to this site. So, from one of my favorite writers to all of you:

My friend Sandro posted a while ago about a “no buy” Christmas, and just recently reposted with an update. I have also tried to limit my purchases and get creative with my gift giving this year. There were the mix cds I made for my parents (actually, I have been making those for my folks [...]
