Orkut scrapbook wars revisited

Aisling performing at Liberty Books


Above: Mary Bertke and her band, Aisling, perform at Liberty Bookstore in Upper Arlington, Ohio. Some great music, and I loved how all the band members seemed to be having so much fun.



There's an article about NaNoWriMo in this week's Book Standard, if anyone's interested. Apparently more than 62,000 participants have already signed up. And yay, Chris has added a link to Inkygirl on my Nanocomic page. :-)

Finished my J.K. Rowling song last night. I sent two files to Jodi and Allison: one with the full arrangement, one with their parts highlighted. We're getting together this weekend for an Urban Tapestry practice in prep for GAfilk.

The Book Standard has a still from the New Line Cinema production of The Golden Compass. I really, really hope they do a good job with this movie. I loved the trilogy so much that I can't help but be more than a tad nervous.

A couple years ago, Jeff Bohnhoff and I engaged in sort of Photoshop battle on Orkut which we now refer to as the "Orkut Scrapbook Wars." I'm no longer on Orkut, but still have the pics. Here are a few, for your amusement and horror:

JeffB's infamous debut concert at FKO (posted by me):



Me and my pal Kirk (posted by JeffB):




Jeff's secret movie career (posted by me):



JeffB and me in Grade 2. I had a crush on him despite how high he buckled his trousers. He tricked me into eating Silly Putty. (posted by me):



My stint as a Star Trek actor (posted by JeffB):



JeffB as an unborn infant (posted by me):




JeffB and Pamela (posted by me):




Me with cleavage (posted by JeffB):



Jeff was always a cuter baby than me (posted by me):



In the end, we decided to call it even. :-)
