Author: Corbid Ravenous

Check it out, all six blogs in one page! It’s like the opening credits for the Brady Bunch!

If you’re bored and restless and in need of distraction, I’ve got new stuff up in my other incarnations. Or if you’re weary of the self indulgent verbosity that is Corbid, check out some photoblogs and the ever informative Neil Gaiman (his journal is like “The Daily Show” for webgeeks).

Soon, this too shall pass…

Sophie Crumb is way cooler than her dad, in my humble opinion…

…ice cream cones and escalators. What does it all mean?

Six of Swords (Science): A daring expedition. An excursion or trip. Courageous act. Show of bravery.

The Empress: Feminine fertility and power. Civilization. Domestic tradition. Family and childrearing. The active, fecund aspect of the anima. The mother and the queen, on earth and in heaven.

Heated some butter in a dutch oven, threw in about 1/4 lb of frozen shrimp and a dash of Cavendar’s Greek Seasoning, added a handful of chopped bell peppers and sauteed everything for about 5 minutes or so, mixed in 1 cup of uncooked rice, cooked for about a minute more, then added 1 cup orange juice, turned the stovetop down to low, and covered the pan. Let it all simmer for 30 minutes. It was very lovely and fragrant and didn’t taste at all sweet or anything, like you’d be afraid it might.

Was, embarrassingly enough, watching “Gilmore Girls” on Tuesday night as the remote control was lost. This actor who was in a lot of Whit Stillman movies had a guest role and I couldn’t remember his last name. I kept saying, it’s Chris…it’s Chris…but I couldn’t remember his last name. So I went to sleep. And I had one of those weird high school dreams, where people you know from all phases of your life keep popping up and you never actually attend any classes or anything. Anyway, there he was in the hallway and I turned to a friend and said, “Hey, look it’s Chris Eigeman!” Because that’s who it was. The brain does work in mysterious ways…

Incidentally, there used to be a checkout guy at Trader Joe’s who looked just like Chris Eigeman, and I used to get pissed off because he never carded me.

A very strange myth indeed…Erichthonius

When I visited the text gallery, I swear I could smell the pages of old books…

The shrine to the goddess Athena.

Do you know where your towel is?
