I’m eating two thousand bowls of ice-cream

April 23, 2009May 1, 2009 / carrot quinn / 6 Comments

And bingeing on electricity. It’s hard, it’s so hard, hard, hard, in the land of TVinterernetIceCreamChocolate, to be a good person, in those hours when I get home from work, and read about making birch-baskets, and work on my dance moves, and write stories about important, dry and unglamorous things that move at the speed … Continue reading I’m eating two thousand bowls of ice-cream

Going private update!

April 20, 2009May 1, 2009 / carrot quinn / 2 Comments

Gosh! I had no idea I still had so many readers. Seriously, my stat counter was way, way down. It's heartening to know that folks are still reading. It turns out that I can selectively password-protect posts, so that is what I will do. There are none of them yet, but those who commented on … Continue reading Going private update!

Some fun facts about bears in Alaska. Of the statements below, two are false. Can you guess which ones? A. There are 300 black bears and 60 grizzly bears living in Anchorage, Alaska's largest city. B. There are an estimated 30,000 brown bears (grizzlies) and 100,00-200,000 black bears in the state of Alaska. C. In … Continue reading bears bears bears

April 19, 2009April 23, 2015 / carrot quinn / 5 Comments

Today we ate a late lunch of re-heated pinto beans and set out, sleds in tow, to move spruce rounds from the edge of the oil road. There are two sleds, both black plastic, one large, one smaller. One holds five spruce rounds, stacked in a pyramid, tilting and tipping on the packed-snow inclines of … Continue reading woodsponies

Holy books and melting icicles

April 18, 2009April 23, 2015 / carrot quinn / 1 Comment

------------------------------ I had a dream this morning, fast asleep in Little House, with the bright light of day streaming in the cabin window- first I woke up, at 7:34, in time for work, but it was the weekend so I pulled a striped t-shirt over my face and went back to sleep, and then the … Continue reading Holy books and melting icicles

At work I can use as much electricity as I want

April 8, 2009April 23, 2015 / carrot quinn / 3 Comments

So I'm blogging alot. I've been writing, too, in mediums other than this one, trying to make a "story". I didn't go to college so sometimes the concept of making a "story" (you know- beginning, middle, end) eludes me. I'm trying to make one. It's about a ruby-colored box and a freight train and some … Continue reading At work I can use as much electricity as I want
