Update
I have officially hit the F*&!? It button.
rethink: Soon
Soon adv. (sūn) in the near future; shortly; without hesitation; promptly I’m gonna sneak “soon” and beat it like it stole my last two dollars. My nails are clipped—well the truth is they split, tear, anddddddd—well look: I got a fresh jar of Vaseline. Or I can make it look like an accident. For nearly [...]
Getting There
*** Full Disclosure Addendum: This is a Debbie Downer post. *** I keep falling asleep which is never good in my world. The quick version: when I sleep a lot it’s usually a sign of a mental exhaustion not a physical one. I woke up this morning with sore knees. There is no long version [...]
Some Rules
I found an old disk today--from, like, 2002 to 2005. Apparently, this was my modus operandi at the time which would explain some of the other treats I found on the disk. Maybe I'll write an updated version. (But today won't be that day because I'm all kinds of pissed, frustrated, fugged up, and downright [...]

It was in the Year [...]

Blueberry muffins, banana nut muffins, and crust-less broccoli quiche (which I guess means it's not really quiche; maybe a baked omelet...whatevs). And check this: the muffins are vegan! Just a challenge to make the victory (which you will note [...]
Doubt It
"Agggggggggg. I have no neck!" I look at a picture of myself and begin to pick it apart beginning with that quip. I am wonderfully flawed and able to see my shortcomings and make something like sense of them. We, my flaws and I, have been involved in this common-law, make-do relationship for more years [...]
Under the Radar: A Blog About Stuff
Only your mama really reads your blog. And if you’re lucky, one or two of your friends and maybe somebody in your family who secretly wonders what the hell you mean when they ask, “So how’s it going,” and you of little words are like, “Cool.” My blog tells of no secret love-chile with Mr. [...]
