Leftovers: The other Georgetown

Wednesday, June 3rd, 2009

Forgot to post these the other night, so here they are–shots of Georgetown, CO, an old mining town off I-70 you might recognize from the terrible 1998 Ben Affleck thriller Phantoms.

Slideshow: Los Angeles to Denver

Tuesday, June 2nd, 2009

Did you know there are places in America that are not cities, suburbs or trailer parks? It’s true! And I took some pictures of them, presented here in handy slideshow format. Fancy!

Day Two: Cedar City to Denver

Monday, June 1st, 2009

After a very long day that included seeing an *actual* lizard, getting snowed on in June and laughing maniacally to myself while listening to at least seven hours of David Sedaris on CD, I am much, much too tired to write the clever post I intended to write tonight. Instead, I am going to post these photos, finish off this juice glass of white zin and shuffle off to bed. Like last time, click the photo to see the whole set.

Somewhere off I-70 in Utah:

This tree is actually Mormon.

Green River, Utah:

Lizard People will be shot on sight.

Eagle, Colorado:

$300/month. But you have to live in Eagle.

Vail Pass, Summit, Elevation 10,660 ft.:

Definitive proof global warming is a myth.

Putting things in Zip-Loc bags is very soothing.

besides drugs.

Turns out, moving across the country in a Nissan goddam Sentra every few years is a really good way to cut down on clutter. Also to drive your self fucking insane. In any case, Henry and I are departing tomorrow for our great eastward journey, which will look a lot like the great westward journey I made two years ago, except with more dog farts, and hopefully a much better idea. Keep an eye on Urbzen.com for updates.

pfft.

Henry sez: “Where did everything go?”

I’m BACK, world!

Friday, May 29th, 2009

Keep your eyeballs on Urbzen starting Sunday for photos and updates from the Great Urbzen Road Trip, which will basically be a bunch of shots of Henry at various rest stops, refusing to pee until he’s sniffed every goddam blade of grass in the county.

Fun!

Hello, Internet!

Saturday, April 18th, 2009

I’m sorry I abandoned you for so long, Internet! See, a Very Important Thing happened last week, and that thing was teabagging. You might have heard about it. In any case, your editor was busy chronicling the insanitea (see what I did there?) over at Teablogging.net.

Honestly everything over at Teablogging is worth a look, for freedom, but here’s a sampling of some of our best work from the past few days:

Teabags Across America: The Day in Photos

Teabagged: The Morning After

Hitting all their historical marks

AmSpec: Scenes from the DC Tea Party

Grassroots!

Teabaggers: We want revolution so long as revolution will not get us into trouble (redux)

And my personal favorite: Michelle Malkin will disembowel you, just like she did to this pig

ALSO: Teablogging.net, a very important internet web site, has been featured on The Huffington PostWonketteTalking Points MemoBurnt Orange,The Daily Angry LiberalShortsandPants and RonPaulForums.com.

Regular Urbzen posting will resume Monday.

Urbzen’s 100th Post!

Thursday, April 9th, 2009

When I started this blog back in the halcyon days of October 2008, my goal was simply to amass a small following, horrify my parents and possibly score some free shit. Now, after 100 posts, I have to say I’ve been amazed at the response and, more than anything, am completely blown away about how fucking awesome I am.

For a girl to achieve as much as I have as a political/humor blogger is truly a testament to you all and your willingness humor me as I pen feisty rants about serious topics that are clearly beyond the grasp of my hormonal ladybrain. More than anything, your support and generosity have taught me an important lesson that I hope to one day apply to my true calling as a faithful and obedient wife to a bright and powerful man.

In the meantime, keep checking back at Urbzen.com for your daily (?) dose of vice, virtue and, of course, sex jokes. And if you can’t get enough here, your lame ass should follow me on Twitter.

Love,

Stephanie
