That sort of day…

on September 27, 2019

What sort of day? Well, to start with, I sleep with my phone–my alarm is on it, and I’ve gotten texts or calls in the morning more times than I can count. We don’t have chargers in the bedroom, so it goes under my pillow. Which is how you drool-dial your buddy and get awakened… Read More


An Extra Cup of Coffee

on September 25, 2019

So usually I only have one cup of coffee. Part of that is that I get so much sugar and cream in it, I’m practically drinking an iced Michael Scott (yes, we’re watching The Office, still. Apparently all he drinks is CREAM AND SUGAR, and if you’re not careful, that’s what McDonalds gives you–it’s happened… Read More


A Tad Unstable

on September 24, 2019

So, Squish and I were driving home today when we noticed something odd about the really pricey SUV in front of us. First, there was the mattress and box spring on top–but that wasn’t the odd part. I mean, you don’t often see mattresses and a box spring on top of a white Navigator–but you… Read More


The “Fuck me!” list

on September 23, 2019

Ugh– every now and then even the best intentioned person can be a graceless asshole. Sometimes it’s ordering the wrong food when someone told you they were allergic and you misheard. (Been there.) Sometimes it’s insisting on a movie that’s a trigger and you were blind to that possibility. (Done that.) Sometimes it’s using a… Read More


The Motivation of Murderers

on September 19, 2019

I remember MacBeth. In fact, I’m still pissed Chicken’s senior teacher sucked balls, because I’d built this play up to be glorious and that twit spent a week on it and made the kids “explore it in groups”. Chicken had to come home and get the mom-notes version. Dear God. What assholes these mortals be…. Read More

Some moments from travel…

on September 18, 2019

Okay– I’m going to add the big post from FB at the end so it’s in the blog because it’s funny. After a brief stop in Detroit for reasons known only to Delta airlines (see my last entry) I spent this weekend in Orlando, at the Dreamspinner Press conference, and it was really lovely. One… Read More


Me and Layovers

on September 11, 2019

So, I have learned. There is toothpaste, a toothbrush, and a change of underwear this time around. There’s even deodorant. I have yarn and my laptop. I made it to a hotel. There’s been food. Good food, in fact–but I forgot dessert and the need for chocolate is gonna haunt me, can’t lie. It wasn’t… Read More


The Cat is Upset

on September 11, 2019

Me: I’m almost done packing, hooray! Cat: *Climbs on top of the suitcase, spreads all four feet out, and extends claws*  You’ll never take me alive, copper! Me: Get off my suitcase you furry freak! I’m trying to get ready to leave! Cat: Fuck you! Nobody leaves me! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Me: *pets* You gonna miss me?… Read More
