The Martha Blog : Home
People don’t get why I love Martha Stewart. It’s not just an aspirational thing, or the endless perfect spreads of decorgporn* she showcases on a daily basis. It’s also not just because she clearly derives as much enjoyment from good food and booze as I do. No, I love Martha because there’s something dark lurking underneath the freshly scrubbed and meticulously presented exterior. I’m not referring to her manners. Sure, she’s been accused of being a salty bitch, but what empire-builder is without their detractors? Rather, there’s something about Miss Martha that I can’t quite put my finger on, but I like it. Maybe it’s her incredibly intense love for Halloween. Or maybe it’s because she snaps photos of roadkill and includes them in her gloriously revealing glimpses into her daily life.
*Decorporn, meet orgporn. Yet another useless coining, and it’s mine, ALL MINE.

GPOYHalloween edition, ‘cause I didn’t want to wait two more days.
L4D nerd pop quiz: I’m carrying a medkit, pills and a molotov. I’m holding an AK-47. I’m only missing one thing. Or maybe two? What am I missing?

I finally decided on a Halloween costume for this year, and it’s a beaut, not because it’s terribly original or anything, but because it’s topical and requires extremely little effort on my part. I’ll leave the reveal for the day after, but here are some clues:

1) This year’s costume won’t be music related.

2) It will not require any cross-dressing on my part.

3) I already own almost every piece of it. In fact, most of it is comprised of clothing I already own.

4) The costume is nerdy enough that I could wear it to a cosplay convention… not that I ever would.

I’m very excited… I love it when much can be done with little.
