Monday, April 28th, 2008Okay, if you can think of something more horrifying than this that’s made the news in the last five years, please let me know, because I’m fully prepared to spend the next several weeks being exclusively horrified by this.
Shuffling on bloody stumps through Roscoe Village
Thursday, March 27th, 2008Yesterday I had my Lady Professional interview, so I got all gussied up and, after getting some useless advice from my neighbor on which sweater to wear, I set off looking great. I felt great too, that is, until I had gotten four steps out of my front door. My stylish new shoes were agony [...]
No, this was different from when I saw “Armageddon”
Tuesday, February 5th, 2008I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned that time I made my sister go see Armageddon. It was Oklahoma brand August and we didn’t have a/c. The theater allowed us to sit in the cold for a while. We’d run home, take freezing cold showers, and jump into our beds soaking wet. But the time I made [...]
Gold crown legacy
Tuesday, December 18th, 2007So, this year we got a Christmas tree for the first time ever. Not when we were dating did we have one, not when we had our “both of us funk of food service jobs and we’re livin’ on love” apartment. We didn’t even get one when HGB was born.

Thursday, July 26th, 2007“Did you eat all the lasagna again?”
Wednesday, February 21st, 2007So after I read this post of Sarah’s, I started thinking about Garfield — specifically how obsessive I was about him as a kid, and how I’d read book after book from cover to cover, over and over, even spending hours drawing every character with different expressions, in different poses. What’s strange, though, is that [...]
HUGE ENTRY STARTS HERE
Thursday, May 12th, 2005Two days ago, my dear amigo k tapped me to follow through on this High Fidelity listamajigger doohickey. It’s all about music. I finally finished, and let me apologize to Sarah, Thomas, and Scott for the hours out of your work schedule this list will deduct. As I may have the retardedest musical tastes of [...]
Comma, misty watercolor
Saturday, May 7th, 2005When I was a kid there was this crazy old lady who lived somehwere in the neighborhood and had a tiny skittery dog named Polka. I couldn’t tell whether she was constantly losing this dog or if she just felt a need to keep a constant rapport with it, but for whatever reason I now [...]
