31 Flavors & Then Some

Scarlett — Wed, 27 Apr 2011 23:30:40 +0000

The other day, whilst poking around in the always amusing semi-chaos of My Documents folder, I came across a long-forgotten relic that had been carefully copied from hard drive to hard drive, dating all the way back to the PC equivalent of the Stone Ages. It was a three year archive of the very first [...]

Scarlett Fever

Never know how much I love you Never know how much I care … Sending so much love to all my friends, readers, followers, and everyone who’s given my 2011 one helluva wonderful beginning. You give me fever! Happy Valentine’s Day.

One Of Us! One Of Us! – The MAGFest Experience

Scarlett — Wed, 19 Jan 2011 19:30:47 +0000

Last weekend, I had the pleasure and privilege of attending MAGFest, a music and gaming convention held near Washington, DC. For those who are fans of That Guy With The Glasses, you may have watched some of the vlogs or read some of the posts by those in attendance, and they are all perfect windows [...]

New Year’s Prayer

Scarlett — Thu, 30 Dec 2010 19:00:33 +0000

Lately I’ve been having a bit of a lark with Formspring, another in the endless line of social networking apps that seems to be all the rage. I like the concept – people ask questions (anonymously, if they wish) and you can then post your answers to your Facebook and/or Twitter account. Outside of the [...]

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas

Scarlett — Tue, 21 Dec 2010 21:55:23 +0000

A dear friend sent me some new sound equipment for Christmas (which I may be putting to good use in 2011 for that podcast I’ve been teasing!), so while learning how to use it, I thought I’d record my version of a favorite classic Christmas song. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday season! [...]

Eternal Sunshine of the Well-Soiled Mind

Scarlett — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 01:15:42 +0000

Lately I’ve had the pleasure of having many thought-provoking conversations with my wonderfully fascinating friends, more so than I can remember in years past. Perhaps it’s the flavor of friendships I’ve been attracting of late (a sprinkle of sweetness here, a dash of spice there, spoonfuls of wit and wisdom to taste); on the other [...]

Sustenance, Spirituality, Soul

Scarlett — Fri, 20 Aug 2010 21:00:30 +0000

For all of the deliciously feminine traits I have in spades, being a fan of “chick flick” fodder is generally not one of them. Oh, there are exceptions to every rule, of course. For example, I am an unabashed fan of the film Ever After (yes, the Cinderella retelling with Drew Barrymore as its heroine), [...]

What Dreams May Come

Scarlett — Thu, 22 Jul 2010 20:15:12 +0000

I went to see Inception the other night, and while it was a visually stunning film, the plot was as layered and tangled as my thoughts have been of late. Fascinating, but confusing. Prone to wild variations in interpretation, and difficult to sort out. I genuinely wanted to like it, but I have a built-in [...]

Deyou Sex

Scarlett — Wed, 09 Jun 2010 00:00:25 +0000

Having recently celebrated my birthday, I’ve found myself reflecting with fondness upon some of the quintessential firsts in my life. The awkward tenderness of my first kiss; the anxious thrill of my first solo spin as a freshly licensed driver. But soft! What light through yonder memory breaks as shiny and brightly as the first [...]

Re-Nude

Scarlett — Sun, 02 May 2010 00:30:14 +0000

Why hello there! Fancy seeing you here again! I know, I know … But I thought that May 1st would be an apropos return to Scarlettopia, given that the first few months of the year were particularly challenging ones, and it finally feels like a good time to begin anew. Today also marks the final [...]
