Riot and Frolic

a mostly ballroom dance, but also a bunch of other stuff, blog

While scooping some Amish Peanut Butter out of a bowl with my bare hand (we ran out of graham crackers!) and clicking around the Interwebs with the other, I have discovered some things that might have been better left undiscovered (besides nutritionally-unfulfilling, peanut-flavored spread).

HTHB reminded me about Hello Giggles.  It is not interesting and nobody cool writes for it.

I could keep telling myself that, but knowing contributor Maude Apatow might be writing something insightful and honest and ohmygodit'sMaudeApatowshe'sonly14andhernameisMaudeandshewassuperfunnyinKnockedUp would be haunting my brain, so I'll just check my feed every 7 minutes or so for new funny things.  Where else can I find out how to make cookie espresso cups and how to help fund a Nikola Tesla Museum (it's not just a band, people)?  NOWHERE!

 

Yeah, that's Maude. 

 

And I'm not excited for this movie at all.

Anyhoo, then there's this Project Life thing, which I heard mentioned a couple times, but thought it was a political movement and not JOURNALING MATERIALS.  Or scrapbooking supplies, depending on how you look at it.  Or maybe a really descriptive photo album?

If you check out the site, there is a very explanatory video on what it is- short-attention-span journal, lazy scrapbook, hyper-informative photo album, whatevs.  

In any case, having journaled pretty regularly since I was 8, currently liking to take photographs, and generally enjoying some tactile visualness, this seems like a worthwhile venture.  Might make a "baby book" pretty simple, too.  [Does anyone still do baby books?]

What have you gotten your hands into lately?  Any movies or books or CDs you're excited about?

One year ago: LLLL, which was jam-packed full of Bratts and babies and gymnastics.  At separate occasions.
