Sunday comes in with the dawn, and I ignore it anyway. Sunday means Monday is round the corner. The waves keep coming, the years come and go in a tsunami of Sundays that disappear with the tide. Watch out! I dream of being in charge of a small army of children: small and in strollers, […]
MoreWe stayed in Medora overnight. He refused to let us stay longer, despite my begging. It is my favorite place on earth. I never got to visit very often, but he wanted to get back to Oregon. I woke up early and walked off alone while he snored, and the kids huddled snoozing in the […]
MoreMinnsota. 2017. No virus. Boy and Girl greeting me every morning with a kiss and a smile. Billy fit-ish, and kind-er. Mid summer. The shadows are playing across the grass and the concrete and the water and the rocks of Stony Point. The humidity hits you every time you take a breath, the heat on […]
MoreI can’t deny it. I love Kurt. I love him in the same way I love Lou Reed. Here is a perfect grungy, rain soaked Seattle grey version of Where did you sleep last night by Leadbelly. I’ve shivered under pines, the whole night through, winter to summer to winter again, the drip drop sounding […]
MoreMy husband didn’t hit me because I fed him pasta, despite what his aunties said. My husband didn’t beat me almost to death because I didn’t clean the house well enough. He didn’t beat me because I refused to sleep with him – that wasn’t an issue, he just raped me anyway. My husband didn’t […]
MoreOne of the small joys of the last year has been the home recorded concerts by loved artists. Tallest Man on Earth did some lovely ones, which felt like he was playing the guitar for some close friends, doing covers that people requested, and being generally charming. It was intimate and sweet and felt like […]
MoreAs a follow-on from “Why am I Sushi” cats, I picked up a Nekko no Panyasan mystery box…um…lets see Honorable Cat Bread Shop Vendor. The lure of kawaii has got me bad, but only if it involves cats, and possibly hamsters with eggs on their head. I have to admit to wanting the one holding […]
More201 actually! Can’t forget the 1, because everyone that has read and responded has taken time out of their day to do so, and I am grateful for every single one of you. I hope I have amused and entertained as well as the less fun stuff, and will continue to do so. It has […]
MoreSun’s out! Blossom bloom! The lure of Matcha ice is Universal! Peace! Fat white boys wield swords! Girl’s in cat ears roar cutely! Manga reigns supreme. Tyrant says “this way!” Woman follows quietly: Dragon bides her time.
MoreI keep hearing the total bullshit about the Mayor of SF not doing anything about crime. It is a pandemic, we do not want prisons full of minor offenders spreading disease: a minor offense does not warrant the death sentence of covid in a jail. There is no point in imprisoning drug users, it fixes […]
