Ridiculology: June 2009

http://ridiculology.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html

RIP Billy Mays and library funding. I've had a lot on my mind lately, but no inspiration to post anything here until now. Truth be told, I've been busy with two other blogs this summer for our Adult Summer Reading Club. And for our Main Library Staff Summer Reading Club. So poor little Ridiculology has been neglected - nothing new though, right? But hopefully we'll know something then. Check out my Flickr page. Or, maybe I could become a pitchwoman, and take over for my dearly departed Billy Mays. Tuesda...

Ridiculology: December 2009

http://ridiculology.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html

A resolution to resolve. As promised, here's our Christmas photo:. That's our cardboard cutout of Captain James T. Kirk in the background, and I made the pie and apron myself. Jared's holding a collection of Christmas stories by Charles Dickens, and he added the lens flare for effect. We went all out for this one! I'm still working on getting everything transferred to the laptop, so no new pictures yet. But soon! Also, I wanted to share an update to a previous post. Remember Gueek Bkead Fay. I have pictu...

Ridiculology: March 2010

http://ridiculology.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html

I just noticed that my last post was about goals for 2010 (and also that it was from JANUARY, and it is now MARCH), so I thought I'd see how well I've been keeping to those goals. Ahem:. Um yeah. I haven't been as active as I'd like. Now that the weather is warming up, Jared and I are planning to walk/hike more often. 4 I finally finished organizing all of my files, which feels wonderful. I still have plenty of craft projects to finish, but I feel good knowing a big project is completed that has been...

Ridiculology: May 2009

http://ridiculology.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

Stuck in a reading rut. It's time for me to admit the truth: I'm a librarian, and I don't read. Alright. that's not entirely true. I flip through craft books and cookbooks all of the time, but it's not the same as sitting down and reading a book - at least it doesn't feel that way. I love books, I really do, but at some point in college I stopped finding the time to read books for pleasure, and it's been a difficult habit to get myself back into. So how do I fit reading back into my life? This month, whi...

Ridiculology: Crazy on Twitter

http://ridiculology.blogspot.com/2009/08/crazy-on-twitter.html

Hey guys, remember back when I posted in January about @astrospace, the guy who freaked on Twitter. Well, he's still around - and still pissing people off! Thanks to an anonymous commenter, I learned of a petition to get the guy removed from Twitter altogether for abusive behavior. Not only is he rude and slanderous, he's actually stalked and purposefully harassed people. He's obsessed with having large amounts of followers, and he deletes the bad things he says to try and cover his tracks. You are doing...

Ridiculology: Goals for 2010

http://ridiculology.blogspot.com/2010/01/goals-for-2010.html

Well, I didn't end up making any resolutions for this year - although I do like the idea of picking up a bad habit instead of starting a good one! Instead, I think I'm going to copy Jessica's idea. And create a list of goals for 2010. She did ten, but I'm going to be a little less motivated and list five. Perhaps one of them will be a bad habit that I'd like to indulge in! 1 Read more than one book per month. 2 Work out at least once a week. 3 Play more video games. For Christmas and I have other. Luckil...

Ridiculology: How NOT to handle yourself on Twitter

http://ridiculology.blogspot.com/2009/01/how-not-to-handle-yourself-on-twitter.html

How NOT to handle yourself on Twitter. A while back I started following @astrospace. On Twitter -the official account for Space and Astronautics News. This shouldn't surprise anyone - I love space! However, whoever running the account almost never tweeted about space! Very disappointing. Often it was about how many followers they had, and no real news. But I kept following them anyway, mostly because I'm too lazy to unfollow people. Posted this awesome screen shot. So what's the lesson here? This was goo...

Ridiculology: December 2008

http://ridiculology.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html

Is it totally cliche of me to write a post reflecting back on the past year on New Year's Eve? If it is, too bad. I'm doing it anyway. 2008 was really a mixed bag. It wasn't a bad year, but it wasn't necessarily a good year either. I can't even remember what my resolution was for 2008, so I don't know if I kept it or not. Chances are, I did not. The new Harry Potter movie did NOT come out - total sadness. Had some nasty fights with Jared over the cats (this was, of course, later rectified). 2 Watching pe...
