Bankruptcy Court: Survival of the Fittest!
I survived the Trustee’s Meeting today. Survived, but still am dissatisfied with my counsel – It’s pretty sad when I seemingly know more about what’s going on than the guy I just paid $1500 to represent me to the Federal Bankruptcy Court.
My Confession to You…
Sometimes, at night, I wait for you.. as if you’d come…
I think of your face, your eyes… Your lips. The way your voice sounds or how you smell…
Impotence
I can’t model for shit these days. I’ve tried a couple times, but I feel so fucking undesirable I just don’t know what to do. It’s my own fault, I suppose. I just try to fantasize about something, someone, some place… that I want, desire, long for and I’ve got nothing lately. I start, but it always turns badly and I end up feeling worse than when I started. (You know something’s wrong when even your fantasies reject you!
Passing Thoughts Spoken, Penned, Thought Throughout the Past Few Days
Thoughts About Insanity (Written in an email): In my head I’m an 80 pound freak with twitchy, birdlike movements and tangled hair. I slink, head down… tilted to the side, like I’m listening for you.. waiting for you to call. You never do… That’s the beast in my head… dark and ugly, scared, scarred and […]
Around the World & Home Again…
Just a quick update After I dyed my hair pink, it faded… badly. In fact, the color was almost all gone in 3 washings… No fun! But, after much soul searching (and the discovery of a hopefully much better dye), I’ve returned to my pink roots. A picture: And a few more! Have a great […]

Perfectly Random: A Reflection
Words from the past: I stand on the edge, looking down over the pavement below. The sky is blue, but gray clouds hover on the horizon and some nearly imperceptible voice whines in the wind. A warning maybe. A sorrowful cry of those who have stood here before me longing for death or life. Longing […]
Thirsty Thursday: Tituba (pronounced Tichiba)
What better name for this eastern witches' brew, than the first accused in the Salem Witch trials? Tituba, a slave and social outcast, was singled out along with two others as the first of Salem's witches. After severe beatings and a promise of freedom upon cooperation, Tituba confessed of practicing witchcraft. She was then put […]

Wacky Video Wednesday: Munchkins?
Everything you really wanted to know about the munchkins from The Wizard of Oz, as it celebrates its 70th anniversary. Hey! I thought it was interesting, anyway! I mean, no, they aren't as cute as they were 70 years ago, but neither is that weird old guy down the street that everyone suspects is a […]

The Great Hair Debacle
I’ve had a rough few days. Ok, a rough couple months, but the last week or so has been, shall we say, less than pleasant. Between allergic skin reactions, general meanness from people I trusted, being dumped (via text, I might add), a tremendously laughable arts fair and country music fest, and the odd insult, I […]
Piercing?
I can remember the day: I was 5 and we were going to the doctor for my immunizations and health check prior to the first day of school. I was soooo excited. Not because I was getting a shot, but because months prior my mother had promised the next time we went to the doctor, […]
Runner
I love to drive fast. Really fast …. 100 mph or more. The grey ghost and I blazing past everything that would hold us back, radio blaring, tires squealing, windows open … not bad for a wagon, eh Ahh, but she’s not just any wagon. She’s a 2003 Pontiac Vibe GT … the first one […]
Tattoo Torrent
Most of my life has been painted with longing … Always telling myself that I’d have all the things I wanted, go the places I wanted, do what I wanted … eventually … when I was older … when I was prettier … when I was better … Well, screw that! I AM OLDER, I […]
Where my head’s at most days …
Right Where It Belongsby Trent Reznor See the animal in his cage that you built, Are you sure what side you're on? Better not look him too closely in the eye, Are you sure what side of the glass you are on? See the safety of the life you have built, Everything where it belongs […]
Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Delight!
Last night, the girls and I decided it was time to make cookies … So, we pulled out the trusty Kitchenaid and got to work! Although the cookies were good, I was afraid we'd have no dough left for baking them as the girls were avid cookie dough eaters and had taken out quite a […]
I Can Think of Much Worse …
Dirtiest 4-Letter Word written by Naomi Shihab Nye The Dirtiest 4-Letter Word is "self" says the sign on a churchand I almost run off the road. What about Kill? Hate? Rape?Even "whip" sounds worse than "self" or might we trie "lies"? Now I remember whySunday School gave me a stomach ache.
In Memory of Dr. Seuss …
Because the girls love the story so much and because Miranda declared that she would not eat them, we decided to make green eggs and ham this morning (recipe follows).
