Big N, Little Y, Big F–ing Q…

on March 11, 2016

Okay– tomorrow, I swear. I will do Kermit Flail tomorrow. I’m getting close to better–fever’s down a little, and I actually managed to run an errand and cook dinner without completely disintegrating. I needed a nap, but I didn’t disintegrate. So, for today’s blog, two things. A. The results of the errand: Were frickin’ adorable!… Read More


Mostly dead all day…

on March 9, 2016

Ugh! You know that thing when you get home from a trip and every airborne virus in  the airplane has attacked your lungs and you’re spiking a fever and at 102 you don’t make any sense but at 100.2 you can’t stand your own stench but you know if you get in the shower and… Read More


Not Dead Yet!

on March 8, 2016

Heya… So, uh, yeah. I ran away to Florida, and I brought my computer, but I did NOT bring my keyboard.  And I sat down to write at one point, and what I got was ” he uic rown ox ump over he azy o.”  Which should be “The quick brown fox jumps over the… Read More


A brief running away…

on March 3, 2016

Okay– so leaving for Florida in a few hours, and while I’ll have some downtime to blog etc, we all know the vagaries of travel.  My next chance to say hello or goodbye may be a few days away. Anyway– few things: A. My computer crashed last night. As in, complete reboot. As in Mate… Read More


The Blurting Thing

on March 2, 2016

Those of us with ADHD know this thing– the blurting thing. The urge to just open up our mouths and charge on through any social situation with a THING WE MUST SAY. Most of the time, this thing is not so socially appropriate. I remember being thirteen years old in church when suddenly I knew… Read More


George Orwell, Donald Drumpf, and American Politics

on March 1, 2016

*Note– I’m getting political, and I’m getting very very personally political about one particular candidate. If this offends you, by all means skip it, tomorrow I’ll talk about kids or housecleaning or knitting or my writing schedule or something innocuous and non-irritating, I hope. Today, I’m getting mouthy about politics–and I apologize. I try to… Read More


Busy

on February 29, 2016

Okay– so busy. Friday: Trip to the Crocker Art Museum as a chaperone–and hey, don’t think I didn’t almost get drafted as an Art Docent for the Crocker, because I shit you not, our actual docent offered Squish a job in jest, and then turned around and asked me why I hadn’t volunteered yet because… Read More


When you run out of words…

on February 26, 2016

Knit! Seriously– All of my stresses at the moment feel sort of private–or things of which I must speak at length, and I have no time. All of my happies are small.  Maybe just small enough to list… *  I finished this pair of fingerless mitts. They probably need blocking, but right now, they’re perfect…. Read More


A Thing

on February 25, 2016

So I am knitting–like I do. I am mak ing a thing. It’s one of my favorite things to make, and I use variations on the theme almost every time I make it. It’s a pair of fingerless gloves. It was originally a sock–but I screwed up.  I mean, socks– I’ve made a zillion of… Read More


Shh… be vewy vewy quiet… I’m hunting typwos…

So, I’m doing the edits for Rampant at the moment. They’re going fairly well, but I also have a deadline coming up in March, and in a week, I’m headed to Florida for the DSP event. Oh! And trying to figure out swag and my RT schedule so I can have s hit ordered when… Read More
