Lately at the Zoo

Boo slept with me last night for the first time since the kittens came out of their box in April. She’s been hiding out, coming up a couple of times a week to be seen. She may have been coming in to eat when I was gone, I dunno. She’s managed to stay healthy, so [...]

There’s Something About a Nip

Oh, my. I just realized Google will have fun with that one.
Naw, peeps. I’m not hittin’ the bottle. I’d LIKE to, but drinking alone makes me weepy, and God knows I don’t need anymore weeps. I’m talkin’ about the nip in the AIR. It’s windy here, 65 degrees (feels like 50), and the leaves falling [...]

Need

How do you beg a body to stay, to not leave you alone when you desperately need someone to just BE THERE? How do you reach out to people who don’t want to know, who don’t want to hear how much you hurt inside? How do you stop being strong long enough to be vulnerable, [...]

On the Road Again

Every now and then, a girl’s gotta hit the road. I took off for Hotlanta today to see Wicked at the Fabulous Fox Theater. Lemme give ya the rundown.

My Apologies

It has been a busy week, so I haven’t posted in … wow… 4 days. I’ve gotten into that habit lately, but I don’t realize it has been so long, honestly. I just get busy, you know… watching tv, reading the comics. Heh. Anyway, this week could have gone better.

Ease on Down the Road

It hasn’t been very long ago that I was guaranteed to ride a charter bus at least three times a year. I hated it then, only because I wasn’t on it alone: I was usually joined by 40-200 students, depending on the trip, and that is just not my ideal way to travel. I still [...]

Parenthood Is for Everybody Else, Thank Goodness!

I sat across the lunch table watching the young mother interact with her 18-month-old boy. “Put it on your plate, Joe.” Blank stare. “Joe, put the chip down.” Joe put the chip on his plate. “Good job,” she told him, and he promptly picked up the chip and threw it on the floor. “Put the [...]

Walter for President

This pretty much speaks for itself. I must warn you: it’s not for those with delicate sensibilities. Heh. I love Jeff Dunham because he doesn’t apologize to ANYbody.
Go here, cuz WordPress apparently doesn’t want to embed it. OR, go to Walter’s home page here. There are more vids on his page.
Later!

Things That Wake Me at 3 a.m.

*Iddnit (say it out loud, peeps) kinda gruesome that roses, the bearers of blood-letting thorns, thrive when planted with  BONE MEAL? Mine are doing well survive at all, given the lack of attention they get from me. They’re purty, tho. Heh.
*CRAP. I have no clean pants to wear to work in 4 hours.
*CRAP AGAIN. I [...]

Heads Up

Yeah, I changed the header, see? That’s the Leo pic I wanted to use a while ago, but I have a tiny little problem with CHANGE. Not so you’d know, of course, since, you know, I’ve done SO WELL with putting things behind me. Ahem.
