• My favorite Halloween costumes this year include LouLou, who went as Elizabeth Taylor in Cleopatra, Jane as Bette Davis in Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?, Gala as a widow and a sweet dog named Mama Biscuit who dressed as Anna Wintour!!!

How to be fabulous in three easy(ish) steps.

• It’s funny to think that something as basic as the phone book has had such a profound effect on our modern existence. “Phone books eroded (these) barriers. They were the first step in our long journey toward the pandemic self-surveillance of Facebook. “Hey strangers!” anyone who appeared in their pages ordained. “Here’s how to reach me whenever you feel like it, even though I have no idea who you are.”

• I love the pop of color in this rainbow kitchen!

• What’s the difference between blog posts versus articles?

• In totally random yet highly amusing news, here’s a list of the titles the North Korean media has used to refer to Kim Jong-il. My favorites? Superior Person and Glorious General, Who Descended From Heaven.

• In case you were wondering…how to deal with people you hate.

• This (now infamous) Marie Claire article about the author’s disdain for fat people set off a huge fire storm with over 3,000 comments.

    Hi, doll. Just wondering why you chose to link to the Hate-filled Marie Claire article written by the ignorantly misguided Maura Kelly in your link-love post? There’s a reason her post set off a fire storm: targeting a single group of people with hate is not okay! It really is that simple.

      notblueatall: Linking to an article does not mean that I agree with the writer’s views — I am simply trying to provide a variety of content to my readers. I didn’t say that I agreed with what was said in any way — I don’t. I’d heard about the post all week and wanted to see what everyone was talking about and I am sure that many of my readers did as well.

    I understand your wanting to share a variety, I blog, too…but when you include a hateful article in a post titled “Link Love” it sends a bit of a mixed message. I love your blog, but was surprised is all. Rock on!
