Bestest Pre-Birthday Birthday Weekend EVER!
I like: Shopping, sunshine, being the center of attention, mimosa, my friends, fried chicken and waffle, copulating, going on trips, laughing, soaking, gossiping, drinking, exploring, and mexican food. And my weekend contained all of this.
Oh, yes, that hat? It says birthday princess. Hells yeah.Had my birthday brunch at Meriwether’s on Saturday with all of my [...]

True ‘dat
How hard it is, sometimes, to trust the evidence of one’s senses! How reluctantly the mind consents to reality. - Norman Douglas

New job + straight eyes = hooray!
So after months and months of frustration and looking, I finally found a job. And it’s a pretty good one too. I’ll be doing mostly administrative stuff, but some admitting and patient screening that will hopefully strengthen my nursing school application.
Plus, most fortuitously, the job is in an Optometric clinic. And, one of the doctors [...]

The Halloween Hoodlum or The Purloined Pumpkin
Ahh family fun!
We went out to the haunted fantasy trail last night. We were treated to dry weather of moderate temperature and a waxing moon to set the spooky-ness at full blast. We got out to Wenzel Farm after dark and the whole place was lit up. Aria has expressed some trepidation about going after [...]

The Songs in Sleep
So, occasionally I will have this weird, but basically cool thing happen: I will fall asleep, sometimes dream, though not always, and wake up with a song-fully formed-written in my head. I have learned to keep paper and writing utensils handy so as to make record of these sleep-songs, because if I just go back [...]

Not to mention the ensuing pleasures of the flesh.Your tastes have been called decadent and bizarre. You usually [...]

All we can do is keep breathing…
Which is supposed to help, but sometimes doesn’t. No amount of breathing is going to change the fact that things are scary and sad. It might change the intensity of the scary or sad feelings, but they don’t go away.
If only, like Hansel and Gretel in reverse, I could follow my own breath forward to [...]

Nostalgic Goopery
I am a sentimental sap. I cry at movies, and t.v. and songs about Michigan. I don’t know why, but it has always been so. I become unaccountably attached to inanimate objects, like my 1980 Datsun 510 Station Wagon which I WEPT over having towed away many many months after its practical purpose as a [...]
