burghbaby in Christmas Crazy

I've got too many things that need to be said so it's time for a random sort of list:

-- Christmas Crazy, at this exact moment, stands at $310. Given that you all were so amazing as to come together with around $3000 last year, I'm expecting the same (or more) this year. We've got two weeks left to go, so please and thank you and you're awesome for donating, no matter the amount. It's for the kids!

-- There are some ways you can shop and help Christmas Crazy. There are some super cute barrettes over here and then there are these:

Have I ever mentioned that I love Pittsburgh? Yeah.

-- Speaking of Pittsburgh, if you live close enough, I have a pair of Brewfest tickets up for grabs. See that? You give so kids who wouldn't otherwise have gifts under the tree can have a great Christmas and I give you beer. It's like magic!

-- Creating a Facebook Fan Page for this site has always been approximately one notch above French braiding Robin Williams' back hair with my tongue on my No Way In Hell Would I Ever Do It List. Yeah . . . well . . . I hope Robin stays far, far away because I went and did that Facebook thing. I'm posting Christmas Crazy updates there as well as links to all sorts of things that I want to throw at the internet. You are invited to join the party, if you so desire.

-- A few weeks ago I changed the layout of my Photography page and made it a blog. A PHOTOGRAPHY BLOG, PEOPLE. There are a few posts up over there now, with more set to go live soon. There's a separate RSS feed for that part of the world, so if you want to subscribe, here it is.

-- If you see Alexis in the next few days and you happen to hear her say, "Get out of my butt," I'm sorry. She has been watching a weeeee bit too much Toy Story 3 lately. WHOOPS.

-- Speaking of things Alexis has been saying, lately she's been starting her day with a, "I'm going to do whatever you tell me to do, ma'am." She's talking to me when she says it. First of all, WHAAAA? I don't even know what to do with that. I feel like I should start tossing out orders like I would to a dancing monkey, but I'm always stunned silent when it happens. I need ideas people. Bring 'em on.

-- Oh, hey, did you donate to Christmas Crazy yet? Did I mention that it would mean a lot to a lot of people? Yeah, that.
