Kick. Ass. I just got an e-mail notifying me that my My So-Called Life DVD Box Set is finally being shipped! I was freaking out, what with A) the company turning out to be dodgy and delaying the release for months, B) us moving house and me not remembering what address I put on the…

Happy belated birthday to Tricia! Really, you’d think being a blogger she would’ve given us more notice. Come on, girl! We expect a countdown weeks in advance and daily reminders of your Amazon wish list. 🙂 (Only sixteen weeks til my birthday! I know you can’t wait.)

My friend Steve – who just got back from an extended backpacking trip through Asia; who nearly made it to base camp at Everest; and who some of you may remember from various pornographic postings he’s made here in the past – has launched his own weblog!
