Just a Few (Totally Unrelated) Things

Every few months I add a “new” letter to my handwriting. If I see your hand writing and I like the way you make your ‘a’, I’ll steal it. I’ll practice writing for hours a day… slow and steady, focusing on making that letter ‘a’ just like yours. Eventually I’ll start writing faster until it’s [...]

I have a problem. I’ve always had a problem. I’m pretty sure that this problem will never go away. I suck with money. Like… really suck. (I know. Duh. Crickets. Whatever.) Tonight, I ventured out with the intention of going to Powell’s to buy a replacement copy of Badass (I felt like a badass when [...]

Millions of Blueberries, Millions for Me

Last Friday morning I went with 75% of the Lucky Girls (Mrs., Bug, and Monkey) to pick blueberries. Up until a few months ago, I was sure that blueberries tasted like ants. Yeah. Ants. Growing up, our old house would get completely ambushed by flying ants. No matter what we did, they always showed up. [...]

There’s A Hole In The Bucket: Dental Responsiblity and The Inherent Need For Travel

Last April I had a temporary filling put in one of my molars. It’s a tooth that’s been giving me trouble for years (it’s had 3 fillings in it already … prior to the one in question) and this was a last resort before either pulling the tooth or a root canal. This temporary filling [...]

Conscious Altering Epiphanies

I just read a post about follow-through (or lack thereof) and I had a Brain Shattering Epiphany. Appropriately enough, I didn’t finish the post but I’m sure it was good. I think this BSE planted itself in my head last night when Princess Ballerina asked me to tell her a Steinbeck story. I didn’t feel [...]

I Hear The Train A Comin

Yesterday Lady Love and I had a good mini-talk about Shit We’re Working On. She wants to be more accepting of herself in a way that she doesn’t feel bad about things she shouldn’t (for example, she falls in love almost as easily as I do… while it’s a pain in the ass, we shouldn’t– [...]

Dainty Wrists And The Trouble With Being A Galdarned Lady

There are a few things that I’m pretty good at. I am relatively athletic (though I don’t ever do SHIT about it) but I can typically pick up sports pretty easily and be semi-decent at them… I guess maybe that’s co-ordination? Whatever. You all know about my reproductive talents wherein I can reproduce things that [...]

Peter Petrelli > Billy Loomis

Originally, for this post, I wanted a picture of Skeet Ulrich. Once I started looking at his greasy hair and snarky face, I realized that I don’t WANT Skeet Ulrich’s greasy snarky picture here. I don’t like him. I don’t like him one bit. Then, for some reason, “Peter Petrelli” came up (I didn’t care [...]

Everything But SQ3R

I hate studying. I always have. I’m no good at it. I’ve tried learning… I remember in high school we had to learn how to study… it was ridiculous… It was so ineffective that I had to look it up… How To Read More Effectively.  Ahhhh yes…. SQ3R: Survey, Question, Read, Recall, Review. I remember [...]

I Want To Tickle Your Belly Button… From The Inside

I am a very uninspired person. No… really. Right now I’m sitting on the couch still fully clothed in my work gear bouncing among facebook, iTunes, pictures of Michael Cera as Francois Dillinger, and other blogs looking for non-obvious prompts and… well… inspiration. Nothing. Just now I was gone from this post for roughly 10 [...]
