Holy Empty Wallet Batman

Um. So, Hi. Remember me? The one who is NOT rich? Well – as of right now (I’m not closing comments on the De-Lurker Day post – so if you havent commented yet? Have at it.) I’m donating 143 dollars to the Tsunami Disaster Relief. Just for the record? I don’t HAVE 143 dollars. But – for YOU guys? And for those less fortunate than I? And for all of the ego boosting yesterday did for me? I’ll find a way to make it work. I’ll even post a screen cap so you all can see I’m a woman of my word.

But really? Thanks to ALL of you. Yesterday was tons of fun and I’m still not done responding to all your comments. You all ROCK. You know, if it doesnt work out between you and that person your with? You know where to find me…because I love you. And want to marry you. Okay? Good.

Also – for those of you wondering where the HELL I’ve been the last two weeks? First – the holidays – ya’ know – they kinda cramp one’s schedule. But the BIG thing is? I finished my “portfolio”! And now? I have a REAL design blog! Go check it out! I’m really proud of it. I don’t have all the designs up yet – but I’m hoping its functional. Also? The fancy hover buttons? Totally done in .css. I’m so proud of my geniusness. Seriously. I’m a genius.

Okay – so hopefully with Christmas and New Years passed. And with De-Lurking day over. And with my Portfolio/Design Blog done. Now? We can get back to regularly scheduled blogging. And for those of you who’s designs I’m behind on? I’m going to try to get caught up this week and next.

    I LOVE your blog designs page. I only with I could attempt to do something like that with my livejournal. It’s so boring. >.< But you do an amazing job, I never would have thought that you taught yourself. ^_^

  3. Kim says:

    Hmmm, only half of my comment went up. But I also said that I love your designs and that they were amazing, and I never would have guessed that you taught yourself!

    The portfolio looks GREAT! – I’m surprised… YEAH.

    Congratulations on all your comments, and the donation idea. Not only do YOU ROCK, but you also have the biggest heart of anyone I know! : )

    Your portfolio looks wonderful……..whoooo. And 143 vistis…….goodness…what a day it was…That was such a good idea…………….

    Hee hee. Perhaps you can ask people whom you’ve worked for to help you with the donations, since we all know you AREN’T rolling in it?

    Just thinking you deserve some help of your own, since you do so much out of love. ;)

    Thanks for donating the tsunami relief money for us delurkers. That totally rocks!

    Your Zoot Designs are awesome. You are a genius.

  8. Laura says:

    If we are getting married……does that mean I have to buy you a ring too?

  9. junkie says:

    Beautiful job on the portfolio, Zoot!

  10. Whew! That was hard work posting under 135 different aliases. :D

  11. bluepoppy says:

    Zoot? What is your e-mail address– or IM for yahoo is it misszoot.com or do I actually write out the DOT COM– don’t mean to sound like a dumb ass– am dumb ass– but want to ask you a question if I could. Thx.

  12. MIchelle says:

    Love you blog desings page. I think you should add a line somewhere about how even though you don’t charge dontions are welcome and check out my wish list. Really you should get something for your hard work. Cheers!

  13. keepergirl says:

    Miss Zoot … you are awesome. I’ve already made a donation to tsunami relief, but you’ve inspired to me to donate more.

    Oh, and as long as you’re fielding marriage offers, keep in mind that I make rockin’ lasagna and I do laundry! ;-)

  14. ben says:

    I figured you spent the last couple weeks procreating. Or at least practicing. (“practice makes perfect!”)

    And yeah, put up a paypal button or something, and let’s see how all your Zootfans can help contribute to the cause.

    Or are we ZootGroupies? I forget.

  15. Kitty says:

    Your porfolio is AWESOME. You know, if you do get bored with your current job, you could easily switch to website design. I know lots of people that would hire you! (And can I take an internship under you? Cause I want to learn all that stuff too.) ;)

    I agree with the Paypal account – the Zootfans/Zootgroupies will stand behind you! Keep up the great work!

    Hey, great design site! I too love web design (and drawing graphics), so much so that it seems like I’m changing my own design every other week. I’ve had to start offering to do other people’s sites so I have an outlet for all that creative energy. You do good work!

  17. Jay says:

    Hi Zoot – I’m late to the De-Lurker party But I just wanted to say how great your blog designs are. I’m always so impressed by the fact that you’re learning this on your own. I dont have that much patience!

    So cool! I’m so proud to know ya!

Hi. I’m Kim.

This is my blog that I've been writing on since January, 2004. I call myself Zoot as it's a derivative of an old childhood nickname. I used to write about my struggles to have children, but eventually I succeeded and now, I write a lot about those kids. I don't use my kid's exact names simply because if someone Googles their very unique names in the future, I don't want them stumbling upon my entries about boobsweat. I mean, would you hire someone whose Mom writes openly about such topics? NO. YOU WOULD NOT.

I love taking pictures and carry my camera (almost) everywhere I go. This means you'll see a lot of photos on this site. I also periodically post recipes I like as I've been slowly (but surely) learning to cook and I like to share my discoveries. Finally? I'm an annoying pop culture fanatic so I'll periodically ramble about Hunger Games or the latest Parks and Recreation.

I hope you like it here. If not? Please don't tell me. I cry easily.
