Rest in peace, UBM

David Mills, aka the blogger known as Undercover Black Man, passed yesterday of a brain aneurysm. I’ve been following his blog for a couple years.  He was not that old.   To just die, out of nowhere?  So tragic.  I don’t have anything eloquent to say.  My heart goes out to his friends and family. Here [...]

For those new folks that are stumbling in lately..

onefinemess | March 1, 2010

I see a few of you.  Go stats page!  No pressure to say “hi” or anything — although it definitely might make me smile a bit if you do. In light of the digital foot traffic, I thought it might be a good time to post a general little summary of what it is I [...]

de-d*nkification

onefinemess | June 24, 2009

Note: No d*nkeys were harmed in this post. If I have any avid blog readers, they may have noticed me removing all direct traces of the infamous “d*nkey p*rn” phrase from my blog.  It was funny for a while, but now I’m trying to clean up my hits and see what people are actually finding [...]

end: Unofficial Month of Blogging ’09

onefinemess | May 2, 2009

So I managed at least one post every single day last month – I think for the first time I’ve done this in the 4.5 years I’ve been blogging. Interestingly, I don’t think I got many more comments than I would in a standard month, nor did I really pick up any new active commenters [...]

Blog has moved!

onefinemess | March 26, 2009

Did you notice? Hopefully not too much. Why? More customization: I can dl whatever theme I want (even though I’m not using that).  I can edit the .css and .html for the themes (you may not notice but I will!). I can hopefully allow other kinds of media embedding – wp.com embedding was driving me [...]

re-merged blogs

onefinemess | February 5, 2009

Yes, I re-merged my comic blog & my main blog. Much as I’d like them to be separate, it’s not like I have any/enough readers for there to be a point.  So, violin!  More comic related posts for the rest of you ;). They will all be in the “pullbox” category.

new blog look

onefinemess | September 16, 2007

I think some of my coworkers have started to think I’m pretty negative person…possibly due to their interaction with my half-conscious-no sleep self of the last several months. Sooo….I’m trying not to sound so pessimistic in general, trying to be less mean to random people on the streets (but not celebrities, that’s that they’re there [...]

Zain!

onefinemess | June 8, 2007

Zain Elyas was born yesterday at 4:05 PM, 6lbs 9ounces 19.75 inches. There are some pics up here. It’s been a long, stressful road, but (duh!) of course it was worth it. It will be more worth it when we can take him home – he’s on anti-biotics and has to stay at the hospital [...]

We’re having the baby right now!

Dilated to 5, epidural is in! Go team French-ture!

captchas off

For now, I’ll turn them back on if the spam gets out of control again.
