Activity for Cabell

We talked about Chris Rock's documentary Good Hair a LONG time ago, but I just wanted to let people know that I showed it in my sociology of gender class yesterday, and I thought it was a great piece to use! I thought it was interesting that Tracie...

I'm going to a conference in Atlanta in August (it's the national meeting of the American Sociological Association). I booked my trip via Travelocity in April, and was really pleased to get a super cheap hotel about 15 minutes from the hotel for...

Oh, boy. So y'all finally convinced me that we should have multiple registries, so DS and I went to Kohl's on Saturday to register for housewares... but I felt like there was some stuff they didn't really have (we didn't like any of the duvets), so I...

So I'm updating our registry on Amazon and shuffling some stuff around since we added registries with Kohl's and Bed, Bath & Beyond. Amazon will show you lists of "Top 100 Registered For Items" in various categories, so I'm browsing through "Health &...

I'm kind of a personalized photo product junkie, I have to admit. A few years ago I did calendars with photos from a big family Thanksgiving (it's usually just us) as Christmas presents; I've also done assorted mugs, cards, postage stamps, books, and...

We got our official marriage certificates from the Clark County Clerk's office today! I ordered two copies so we could have one in the safety deposit box and one on hand. It's just so exciting to look at them--I know, I'm a huge dork, but they look...

Okay, this is bugging me. Lots of places like Zazzle.com will do photo mugs and even steins. They can definitely print on both metal and glass. So where can you get custom photo shot glasses? They can't be that hard to make. I'm sort of tossing this...

DS & I are moving to a 2BR from our current 1BR in August, which is great, because we have WAY too much crap in our current place (even with a bunch of stuff in storage) & we'll getting almost double the space. BUT unfortunately one aspect of living...

I always say if I were able to play roller derby (can't bc I'm on blood thinners, so bruise-causing activities are verboten), my derby name would be Cherry Boom Boom. :p Anyway, here's the latest iteration of my summer punch, which I'm taking to a...

So we had a huge storm last week that fried my desktop hard drive--I have a netbook and a laptop that I keep mostly in my office, but I use my desktop for gaming and also to work at home (it's just annoying trying to make lecture slides on my teensy...

Whew. Yesterday I finally stopped by the bank and signed us up for a safe deposit box--I've been telling DS we needed one for like three months now so when he got home & I told him I got one, OF COURSE his first response was "For what?" For my birth...

So I'm going to a conference in Atlanta in August, and DS's aunt and uncle and cousins all live in the area. They were telling me at the wedding that we should have dinner or something, which was nice, but I hadn't really been thinking about it until...
