Somewhere on the internet I read a comment from a girl who broke up with a guy she was dating by leaving him a voicemail. His band then used the recording in one of their songs. I thought this was hilarious and clever. To take something that was likely, well, not the best news in … Continue reading Criticism and Creativity

Shiny and Strappy
I like parameters. I tend to think that I am creative but I am intimidated by complete freedom. If someone asked me to paint a picture and they said to do whatever I pleased I would stare at the canvas for months. But if they said they wanted a square painting of their cat with … Continue reading Shiny and Strappy
Back to Lights, Camera, and Action
This past weekend Shannonlee and I filmed an episode of Help Me, Hannah!, the webseries I am partnering with En Femme for. We haven't' filmed a new episode for a few months and I thought I would be a little rusty but rest assured I had no problem resuming my normal habits of saying "um" … Continue reading Back to Lights, Camera, and Action
Someone Told Me it’s All Happening at the Zoo
And they were right! The MN T-Girls had our monthly adventure this weekend and we did something we haven't done before. We visited the zoo. Specifically we spent most of our time in the conservatory of Como Zoo in Saint Paul but we did get to see a sloth, turtles, some giant fish, and a … Continue reading Someone Told Me it’s All Happening at the Zoo
Saturday Morning, 4 A.M.
For some reason the last two days at work have been so incredibly boring. Which is kind of a nice change but it makes for long days. Long, incredibly boring days. Boredom led to tiredness and I gave up the ghost last night earlier than I normally do on a Friday. I had a busy … Continue reading Saturday Morning, 4 A.M.

I like to find new used bookstores. I like museums, from art to science … Continue reading Ask Hannah!
We Could Be Sisters, Just For One Day
I think when it comes to "en femme firsts" we anticipate something HUGE. For example, when I went out into the real world for the first time during the day, I expected people staring at me, pointing at me, perhaps even verbally berating me. But it was so... normal. People were lovely or indifferent. There … Continue reading We Could Be Sisters, Just For One Day

Where did you find that absolutely gorgeous hot pink bustier with the garters? I am absolutely in love with it and every time you post a picture of your beautiful self with that on I find myself wishing I knew where to find it! Hi! I will never pass up an opportunity (or excuse) to … Continue reading Ask Hannah!
O Frabjous Day!
It's cliched to say that the Children's Theatre Company's production of "Alice in Wonderland" in wonderful. But despite trying so hard to think of a different, less predictable adjective as I sat in the audience on opening night this past Saturday I came up short. It is wonderful, plain and simple. Not that there's anything … Continue reading O Frabjous Day!
Planets and Universes
I wrote this yesterday morning, and will do a follow up in a day or so It seems like every piece of entertainment has to be a part of a shared universe. Which can be fun but also maddening. When I was a kid and I watched an Indiana Jones movie which had a scene … Continue reading Planets and Universes
