Weird —

Being in my late twenties, my mother has come to view me more like a friend.  Or, at least, she speaks to me that way.  Unfortunately, or hilariously, depending on the situation, this leads to interesting conversations. Today we had one that made me nauseous. In brief: my mother almost married my elementary school principle, […]

Politics & Prom —

I just finished reading an article on USAToday about an 18 year old Mississippi lesbian who, after being denied the right to bring her girlfriend to prom, contacted her ACLU chapter for help, only for the school board to find the pussy/asshole way around the situation: they canceled the prom for the school and suggested […]

Metro Moment —

Today I witnessed my first crime in progress. Actually witnessed might be too strong a term. I saw the direct aftermath of someone’s really bad day. I sat on the Red Line around 1pm, reading a submission for Writers’ Group, when I heard a young woman a few rows behind me yell, “Hey!” The warning […]

The Bill Bomb —

The Rachel Maddow Show, in order to raise awareness, interest, and passion for the legislative process, is currently running an online contest, asking viewers to re-brand the filibuster, because, as she notes, it’s just so boring. Here is my entry, along with a link so you can vote for it, or any other suggestions you […]

She Lives —

I’m sorry, my few though quite loyal, followers for my absence. Damn, I missed the entire month of December. The 30+ days I’ve spent, sans blog, were a mixture of awesome and awful. I was at times angry or overjoyed, calm or worried, okay or not okay. Today, though, I’m good. It took the entire […]

Bad Day —

I had hoped my next post would be a wrap up of my Turkey Day Vaca (actual title of soon-to-be entry), but life has once again spoiled my plans. As of January 1st, or sooner if I so choose, my job position will be eliminated. That’s right folks: I’ve been laid off. The economy sucker […]

Crush —

Yes, it is 2am. No, I do not have tomorrow off and am thereby sacrificing sleep to write this post. Why, you might ask? Because, in yet another reason why I want to loose weight, there is this chic at work I seriously want to bone. No, I shouldn’t call her a chic, especially because […]

Photo Friday Delayed —

Sorry folks, you awesome few who actually read my musings. Photo Friday will have to wait a few days. I seem to have misplaced my memory card reader. Therefore, I have no way to actually post the photos I have taken. But, be brave; I think I know where it is. However, I have to […]

FYI —

There is this saying when one is in a relationship: Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy? I chose to be happy. We hugged. I apologized for being bitchy. He told me it was no big deal. And then we sat and talked about politics for about 30 minutes, […]

Elbow Photos —

Here is a close up of my first sling configuration and a shot of the offending elbow. Here is a shot of the second, and frankly better, sling currently in use. I knotted the rope, making a large loop, and placed it over my head. The knot is below my right arm while the top […]
