Blogger. Ever.I have attempted many times over the last year to ressurect this wee site. <br /><br />I write the haikus, that's no problem. It's the making of the pictures, the scanning, saving, colouring, resizing, positioning, uploading, writing HTML...I mean it's not like that's all HARD, it's just not FUN, and I am lazy at heart. <br /><br />Which is why I write haikus, the shortest poems ever, and not Odes to Josephine and Other Fine Ladies of Moral Repute (fyi any people out there who write odes - that is an ode that is just begging to be written).<br /><br />So, lets look at the facts. I am lazy, and want to post short things. I guess you can see where this is going - I am moving to Twitter for some text-only action.<br /><br />If you would like to follow me that would be nice, if you don't, then that is fine too and I am sure we can still remain friends.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;"><a href="http://twitter.com/katehaikus">http://twitter.com/katehaikus</a></span>Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00414682008916698708noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5573330760722247802.post-32916757595071508362008-01-29T23:38:00.000-08:002010-05-21T14:51:39.128-07:00Working Girl - a haiku<table cellpadding="10"><tbody><tr><td bgcolor="#2985ff"><img src="http://i1040.photobucket.com/albums/b403/soysaucecarnival/working_girl.png" /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-style: italic;font-family:trebuchet ms;font-size:100%;" ><span style="font-weight: bold;">Working Girl - a haiku. </span><br />I went through my pad<br />I cut out all my doodles<br />I was just that bored</span>Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00414682008916698708noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5573330760722247802.post-31074298706606546672008-01-23T16:35:00.000-08:002010-05-22T17:30:43.082-07:00Team Meeting - a haiku<span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;">This is a little something I like to call "haiku'ing at work".</span><br /><br /><table style="font-family: trebuchet ms;" cellpadding="10"><tbody><tr><td bgcolor="#2985ff"><br /><img src="http://i1040.photobucket.com/albums/b403/soysaucecarnival/team_meeting.png" /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><span style="font-family: trebuchet ms;"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Team Meeting - a haiku. </span><br />Urgent note to self: <br />Keep your bottom in your chair. <br />Don't flee the building</span>Katehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00414682008916698708noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5573330760722247802.post-77579062987393544482007-12-11T11:51:00.000-08:002010-05-22T17:32:03.603-07:00Destruction - a haiku<table cellpadding="10"><tbody><tr><td bgcolor="#2985ff"><img src="http://i1040.photobucket.com/albums/b403/soysaucecarnival/destruction.png" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"></td></tr></tbody></table><br /><span style="font-size:2%;"><span style="color:#b9d7ff;">Destruction - a haiku.
