Coming back around after feeling the need to withdraw for a while. Most of my photostream is still friends/family only. If you're not a creeper (or if you're the *good* kind of creeper, who perhaps leaves bottles of gin in my cubicle), drop me a line and I'll add you. Mostly you'll find sub-par photos with a few interesting stories or recipes.

I have to confess I've missed you all.

    "Great friend, great cook, great hostess/entertainer/convener of interesting groups of people. And oh yeah, a darn good photographer too. What's not to like?"

    "God spoke to her, though not always distinctly, and she tried, hard at times, to distinguish His voice from the many others."

    "Is "hubba-hubba!" a testimonial?"

    Brock says:

    "According to her profile, CJ is "more than I can handle". To which I guffaw loudly and say "tish" and "pshaw" in equal measures and with no small amount of vehemence. I have explained on many occasions that I have extensive natural ability in the handling department and I also have very large hands. Clearly a perfect match, many would say.

    It has been to my utter dismay that this obvious sign of ability has left her strangely without temptation to allow me to prove it.

    Bah."

    "I've known CJ for years. Many years. Years and years. This is what I've learned from CJ, in no particular order:

    Running around in the rain is fun and should be done at least once a year, especially with friends.

    Whole wheat bread is a good thing. (Learned well before it was the "cool" thing to do.) (By that I mean before Sara Lee made some.)

    CJ is an amazing cook and I was lucky enough to benefit from it for six months. I seriously crave her egg drop soup and some crusty bread.

    Mostly I learned that if she comes up to me and says, "Wanna mess with it?" I'm helpless. I've destroyed "perfectly" okay kitchens at the sound of her dulcet voice uttering these four words.

    Oh, yeah, she takes pretty nifty pictures as well. But, I'm sure you've already figured that out."

    "From the moment our paths crossed in the daisied wood of Blakenschrok, and we fought on that crumbling bridge with metal-clad staves (to when I moments later found myself bloodied and baffled in the stream below), I knew that CJ was something special.

    CJ is the feeling the cat gets when the cat who lives on the 27th floor and cat sees a pigeon fly by and cat forgets about gravity.

    CJ is a dance craze waiting to happen...

    CJ Is teh RoxZorxzzz!11!!eleven!!

    - really.

    - she is.

    I would not lie about something as important as this."

    "The best possible testimonial i can give her is to reproduce her spill log from Dec 20, 2005.

    Spill Log

    Today, 20 December 2005: Possibly the most embarassing "spill" to date.

    Here at work, my phone resets itself to the highest volume possible at random intervals. I attribute this to the resident demons that also possess the printer which spouts ancient Hebrew and sulphurous smoke. Anyway. This innocent-sounding "resetting" means that when I turn it down to a reasonable volume (think a microwave beeping or a mild-mannered alarm clock), I may have a two-phone call reprieve, or a ten-phone call reprieve. Sometimes a no-phone call reprieve.

    Over the weekend and my sick day on Monday, it reset itself. Think a cage of howler monkeys being stirred into a frenzy with pop-rocks and cocaine and attacking a fire truck on its way to a five-alarm fire. Think air raid. Think Armageddon!

    So I'm having a polite conversation with a coworker while a meeting goes on in an adjoining meeting room.

    Behind me, my phone rings. No. My phone takes off for Saturn.

    Yes, dear friends, your internet darling spilled an "F-Bomb" all over herself at work today.


    This is CJ at her best (her honest, uncensored self)."
