I've said it before, I love Mike Huckleberry. Well, his music. He's a pretty rad guy, also, though! Anyway, this song makes me feel good no matter what. I think I could listen to it on repeat for a day. I need some more music like this. And the whole damn album. Send suggestions, folks!! Read More

My mom and "aunt" Gail just drove my dad's old Honda Civic Hybrid up from NC because I bought it. They drove me to work and are off looking for coffee (since I don't drink it) and the Mall of America. This text conversation occurred after they dropped me off: Me: "Wow! I just realized the underwear I'm wearing has a huge hole chewed in the crotch by Ninja!" Me: "Did you find the mall?" Mom: "We r at cEibou having coffee" Mom: "Gail says ...Read More

I’ve got something important to talk about! Here in Minneapolis, street food vendors are not allowed to park on the streets to sell us delicious, sometimes bacon-filled, tasty food items. There is a hearing TOMORROW. PLEASE ATTEND IF YOU CAN! Here is what Carrie from the Chef Shack has to say about this: “The Public meeting is coming up, to determine the future of street food in the greater downtown Mpls area. There is much debate and resistance to this from business ...Read More

Yes, I combined blog and makeover. So be it. My blog is ugly and Nicole and her codependent partner slash roommate, Jamie, have really fabulous blogs and they make really fabulous blogs and, get this, they're giving away a really fabulous blog makeover! So, I really really really really really want to win this blogover. I want to re-release formicadinette.com with this blog but with this blog really really really fabulous-looking instead of ugly. Don't you think that would be ...Read More

Is morality universal or relative? Relative. So where do you see yourself in five years? Well, at the old age of 31, I'd say I would like to be living in a house by Lake of the Isles, driving around in a Mini Cooper S, 6 speed convertible, with Ninja. I'll have a job that I love mostly. I'll travel a lot. I'd like to have a worthy man in my life, and live with him in my lake-palace. If I have a ...Read More

bacon bra v2.0, originally uploaded by bikini sleepshirt. Well, we finally created bacon bra 2.0! This was the 2nd attempt to make a cooked bacon bra. The first attempt went pretty poorly but this one was awesome, if I may say so myself. Neely and I had many ideas from last time and we invited Alex to come help and photograph the process and results. It was a lot of fun and it came out pretty fantastically. ...Read More

If a State Fair official hinted that he could make you one of the butter princesses for a sufficiently generous bribe, how much would you pay? $9. Definitely $9. Which is worse (or better): having 250 plants or eight cats? 250 plants is better. Plants don't poop. Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do more like? Yes. Definitely. Err, what the eff? Should cops be able to give DUIs to people who drive golf carts while drunk? No, I ...Read More

If you found you were allergic to dogs, would you give Ninja up? Who would you give her to? I don't know what I would do!!! Ninja isn't very allergenic, being that she doesn't shed. But if I was allergic to her, I guess if it were minor I'd try taking some drugs for it and seeing if I can live with it. If it was major I guess I'd give her to a friend. I'd find out who wanted her ...Read More

Well, to start out, I don't know Brandy, but Doni does, and so does Nicole, so that's good enough for me. I follow both of their blogs and after reading what they had to say about Brandy and her Hot Awesome Dude, I decided to write my own little post. My uncle passed away 2 years ago last week from Multiple Myeloma. He was diagnosed in 1988 and lived with and fought the disease for much of his life. ...Read More
