Zomg blogger archives Category
ZOMG, this category is so boring and mainly for administrative purposes. I wrote over 1000 posts using Blogger between November 2000 and September 2002, and when I imported them into Movable Type back in 2002, I stuck them all here.

Earthquake
I was woken up by another earthquake this morning. At 5.0, it wasn’t as strong as the last one, but it was definitely strong enough to rattle our house quite soundly.

Archives
Now is the time when I admit defeat and ask for help: Are there any blogger archives specialists in the house? I can NOT get mine to work, even though I’ve changed all my code, got my files in the right place (no publishing errors), and seem to have it set.
I hate to whine, but … help?

I Have Learned
The following is a list of things I learned the hard way and only wish someone had told me about…So here I am sharing the information with you:
1. If you have a cold sore, you can get rid of it quickly by taking L-Lysine supplements
Oh, how desperately I wish I’d known this back when I was in middle school, suffering with scabby reddish-yellow canker scabs, wishing I could die rather than be seen so ugly. Little did I know that all the Blistex in the world couldn’t hold a candle to the canker-eliminated power of Lysine. So easy!
Ok, that’s only one. I forgot the others. But that’s an important one!!

Non Rock
I have solidified that I am not a rocker. Nor am I a fan of avant art. At least last night I wasn’t.
Andreas’ Hybrid electronic music class had their performance last night. While some of the pieces were fantastic, others consisted of women in bras made of a electrical tape screaming into microphones while arythmically pounding drums and dribbling fake blood out of their mouths. It was, well, loud.
Then Rusty and TW and I headed to an art show around the corner. Nice photography, but also an endlessly repeating video of a young woman wistfully working through her food issues by rubbing what looked like shit onto her face, vomitting into a bucket and then crawling into it, and pounding herself on the head with half a watermelon. Over and over. Watermelon head–CRACK CRACK! Eating shit–wistful blank stare as she rubs it into her cheek. Using eggs as deoderant–CRACK CRACK! Now, vomit into bucket, then back to Watermelon head–CRACK CRACK! It was, well, awful.
Then we headed over to the 4th Ave Tav where a band called “The Emerald City Abortions” was playing. I’m not a big punk or even rock fan, but this was downright horrid, and even my more rock-inclined friends were wincing. We drank beers, ate fried food, and pretended not to be bored while waiting for TW’s friends’ band to go on. They were relatively good, but all there is to do at a rock show is hold your beer and nod your head, and after too much nodding I started thinking about how we were all just doing “Headbang Lite,” and if we were REAL rockers we would have long hesher hair and actually be into it.
It was, well, clearly time to go.
Oh and by the way,

Oh and by the way, I know the links for each post are broken, and the archives still aren’t here. I’m working on it.

Hey there. I'm Ariel Meadow Stallings, a native Seattleite who's written my way up and down the Left Coast. Electrolicious is where I post daily randomata, but I also write for a living. My first book, Offbeat Bride, was published last year.
