I'm your biggest fan. I'll follow you until you love me.

I decided to reorganize my workspace this evening, which is a big job because I have a lot of crap at my desk. Some of it is actually work related — newspapers, magazines, several bundles of business cards. But some of it is just for fun.

Like my Paparazzi Playset.

It's been in its original packaging for a few years — inexplicably. I suppose I thought it would be worth millions someday. Alas, it will not.

But tonight, I finally busted open the package. Some of my coworkers have had their eyes on it for a while, so I'll have to keep a close watch on it now. (I'm talkin' to you, Johnny L.)

I'm one of St. Louis' 'must-read contributors to the blogosphere'!

The Riverfront Times included my Girl, You Lost Your Weave project among their list of 13 of their favorite local blogs. What an honor! Here's the story that ran in the print edition. And here's a follow-up piece they ran to promote a blogger happy hour they hosted. (I was unable to attend.)

Arch on the horizon

One of my favorite things: returning to St. Louis after a long road trip and catching that first glimpse of the Arch on the horizon.

Happy Purim!

My colleague Judy's sister always sends a supply of Hamantaschen — filled with apricot and fig — to the newsroom on Purim. We've been looking forward to the traditional Jewish cookies for weeks now. Delish!

Mmmmm!

A delicious pot of spaghetti. Spotted on Washington Avenue.
