I want to be Sarah Palin for a day. No, wait. Stick with me on this, ok? I promise you that I have a point here. Sort of. No, no, I really do. Ready? This is it. When McCain plucked Palin out of relative obscurity, she was raw and unformed. Sure, she was governor of… Continue Reading

Techno Difficulties
As some of you noticed (and let me know), my blog was offline for the past two days. I first noticed it when I tried to log on Wednesday night that the site was down. No biggie, I thought. I’ll just give it a few minutes, and it’ll be back up. An hour later, it… Continue Reading
Bittersweet Regrets
My niece turned 11 today. She looks like she’s fifteen or sixteen, and she’s already asking when she can start dating. She will be taller than me by my next birthday (April), and her hands and feet are already bigger than mine. She is wearing lipgloss and eye…stuff, and she wants to get her ears… Continue Reading
The Death Membrane
I spent much of my life convinced that I wasn’t meant to live at this time on this earth. I have detailed before why this is so, so I’m not going to go through the whole list again. Instead, I’m just going to highlight a few before moving on to today’s post. I have never… Continue Reading

Fuck You! No, Fuck You!
Do you ever have one of those days when you want to say to someone, “Gaaaah! Get the fuck away from me, you piece of shit. I can’t stand the way you breathe, the way you eat, the way you talk, the way you sing, or the way you are just THERE! You have a… Continue Reading
Survivor, Minnesota Style
Day Three of bunkering down. Or is it Day Four? I don’t know any more. The days are long, and so bloody hot. I don’t know how long I will survive down here with just my bottle of ice water at my side. Plus, my two intrepid kittehs who keep stern watch over me.… Continue Reading
Curiouser and Curiouser
One of the weirdest political stories in some time is so bizarre, not because it’s political (it’s not), I am somewhat gobsmacked at how it’s unfolding. The story is the disappearance of the South Carolina Mark Sanford, one of the most ardent opponent of the stimulus bill. This weird-ass story sounds like it’s straight out… Continue Reading
I’m in My Basement and I’m Blogging
I am not wearing my pajamas, however, as there is still light out–and I sleep nude. I’m all for nekkid blogging when I can’t be seen. As it is, I am wearing South Park boxer shorts and a gray tank top. In other words, as little as I can. It’s kind of odd to be… Continue Reading
