I have WORK ON THE BRAIN and it WON’T GET OFF.

Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe I’m NOT all that. Maybe I’ve been fooling myself all along. Once I thought I might set the world on fire somehow, in some small way, but right now I’m just flagging; fatigued. Maybe I need to take a closer look and face the facts: I might be neither as young nor as good as I think I am. Thought I was. Thunk. If I were a leaf I’d be spiraling down through the air toward the long decay on the forest floor. Drained of suppleness but bright in color, my deciduous heart. Anger comes first,...

What is the point of having a husband around when he won’t let you put your really cold hands inside his shirt to warm them UP?!

I still sound verrrry sexy, but I actually felt worse today, compounded by unexpected project loads dropped on head at work.

My cheekbones feel like sharp glass. My throat keeps surprising me with...

Maybe the only way to stop this horrifying trend is to put HUMANS on the list as well. Because we will be. At the rate we’re going. Read more

There’s nothing as aggravating as having a completely perfect blue-sky sunshine day marred by a horrible pissy mood. It was brought on by the flies, which is par for the course this time of year, waking us up before 5 a.m…I couldn’t get back to sleep after the bloodbath because it was so bright in the room. The first really sunny day we’ve had in weeks and I grumped through the first half of it like a bear roused too early from hibernation, finally kicking aside the covers and getting up with a headache that settled in the back of...
