{February 4, 2009}   It pain’s me

Few thing’s annoy me more than unnecessary apostrophe’s. It especially seem’s to happen on word’s that end in vowel’s, such as pizza’s, soda’s, cookie’s, but it can happen on any word at anytime’s. People, you CANNOT make a word plural by adding an ’s to it! And it’s’s everywhere–on sign’s, T-shirt’s, banner’s, etc’s.

Okay, I have to stop this now. :) But I hope you get my point. The people at http://www.apostropheabuse.com/ sure do. They have photos of signs and menus and shirts with things like pantyhoe’s and ladie’s and all kinds of stuff that makes me cringe, but it’s nice to see that there are people in this world who are as horrified as I am. Maybe someday these errors will stop being written and printed. Someday’s in the future’s…



{July 18, 2008}   Fashion plates

Do you Polyvore? It’s less dirty than it sounds. It’s actually one of the Greatest Inventions of the 21st Century. You can keep your Myspaces, your Facebooks. I’ll sit here and play virtual paper dolls all day. Just open a free account and select from thousands of dresses, tops, shoes, bags, accessories, pants, jackets, jeans and more to put together perfect outfits. You can also view other people’s creations, mark them as favorites and comment on them. It’s a clotheshorse’s dream — shopping for free! And it’s very addictive. The “set” I made above seems to be my most popular, but I really couldn’t pick a favorite of my own — I love them all!

Oh, and to see my sets, go to http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/home?id=279510
