Spring Cleaning in July

We celebrated Independence Day by giving our prison cell apartment a thorough scrubbing. "Thorough" as in near-blisters and aching joints when we were done. Except we weren't really done, because we still have our bedroom and closets to do tonight. That this includes a new bed, desk and rug - completing the Extreme Makeover - makes it all a bit more bearable.It's funny how you can go months without realizing you've simply been treading water, waiting for something to happen instead of making it happen. We hadn't really done much with the apartment since we'd started looking at houses, and…

As a result, most of our traffic is now coming from Google searches hitting old content instead of regular readers returning via their bookmarks and RSS feeds.So, I think it's time to freshen things up by issuing an open call to potential contributors and adding some fresh blood into the mix. If you've been randomly writing about comics in your personal blog, or on whatever message boards you might…

Buzzscope Reviews: 6/29/05

Forgotten Realms: Dark Elf Trilogy - Homeland #1An amazing addition to the four-color fantasy genre that has little going for it these days beyond Conan and Mu. As a D&D fan, it's the next best thing to playing the game. PLUS, interview with writer Andrew Dabb. Blacklight #1What would you do if you had super-powers? Scott Wherle offers a pair of intriguing polar opposites as an answer - plus a new Latina heroine! - while delivering an accessible and entertaining story.Elk's Run #2A compelling combination of Shirley Jackson's "The Lottery" and Stephen King's "The Body," with a healthy dose of…

Adventures in Child Care

Had a bit of scare last night trying to figure out our child care options, what with our daycare provider announcing out of the blue last week that she was skipping town for a few weeks to "invest" the money from the sale of her house. (To my cousins, BTW, making it that much more annoying because I'm sure this wasn't just a sudden decision.) She was being vague about when she was coming back so we decided to find someone new instead of bouncing the kids around for several weeks until she did. Easier said than done, of course.A…
