A Very Ampersand Birthday

My friends know me so well.

And for dinner James made pizzas with the toppings shaped in ampersands. And there were ampersand cupcakes and cookies.

If only I had made another ampersandwich today, I would have had a full day’s worth of ampersand meals – WHOA.

My life is so awesome and amazing and exhilarating and I love everything, especially my friends, and my family, and my Division III.

Food & TED inspiration

January 31st, 2009, posted in general thoughts, inspiration, media

Really tasty food I’ve made for dinner over the last two days:
• hummus, cheese, garlic, lentils, in a tortilla
• quinoa with onions and black beans

SO GOOD.

If you have 20 minutes to kill, I highly recommend heading over to TED (technology, entertainment, design) talks for some über inspiration.  There are dozens and dozens of 18-22 minute talks (I hesitate to call them lectures, because they’re so engaging and dynamic)…

“We believe passionately in the power of ideas to change attitudes, lives and ultimately, the world. So we’re building here a clearinghouse that offers free knowledge and inspiration from the world’s most inspired thinkers, and also a community of curious souls to engage with ideas and each other.”

I just watched this one of Larry Lessig, about the remix culture of the internet, democratic creativity, copyright and creative commons.
