Last one, I promise. Back to sticker sticky business after this little diversion.

Years back, en route to the Arctic of all places, two colleagues and I came up with The Book of Threes, and I’ve wanted to put it to pen ever since (shout out to Carole and Todd). Here is Part I.

More to follow. I really need to get a life….
I can’t believe what you CAN’T FIND on eBay. Typing Cathy Tedford produced zero results.
Plus I learned today that my CAA 2010 proposal on Berlin stickers was declined (i.e., rejected). Including a blog may not be the best idea to use in a C.V. for a conference proposal.
I spent 2.5 hours SORTING MY BEADS tonight. Too cold for stickehs. “Red rum.” More snow. More wood. More snow.
Sorry
Published January 7, 2009 "The Process is the Product" , Bored , Gallery/Center of the Universe Leave a CommentStickerkitty has been slacking off during the holidays and/or working on some other projects. Thanks to Chris Watts at SLU’s NCAT, I learned how to create my name via a binary code of zeros and ones. I will need to spend some time with this information.
PS–I’m not sure how to understand this sequence:

One of my sisters (who now has a very cushy high-paying executive job at the Harvard Business School) told me to never use exclamation points. She’s right, but I get excited sometimes and can’t help myself.
That, plus in my book, one should never use parentheses. If you take them out, the text is always stronger.
See what I mean?:
“My sister, who now has a very cushy high-paying job at the Harvard Business School, told me to never use exclamation points. She’s right. But I get excited sometimes and can’t help myself.”
See? Parentheses are typically un-necessary. Commas do the trick just fine. (Please, I am dying to use an exclamation point there.)
