In which there are germs.
I have a rotten chest cold. It sucks. I don’t like it.
I’m also pretty sure that nearly everyone is way cooler than me because goblinbox.com is gonna be nine in two weeks and I still don’t have a book deal.
That is all.

November 24th, 2009

In which it was too much to hope I could go two entire winters without catching something.
When my alarm went off at nine this morning, I didn’t notice that I felt bad or anything, but I did pass right the fuck back out until 11:30. Hard. Like, lights-out.
I got up and had breakfast and packed [...]

November 23rd, 2009

In which I share a little something I’ve been thinking about.
I try to shield myself from too much media (because American media is, as you know, ON FUCKING CRACK) but one can’t be alive and totally ignorant of the issues. One does, after all, read the New York Times and listen to NPR on occasion.
In [...]

In which I bitch about my current work schedule, but find some stuff to be excited about.
I had yesterday off, which made it my Saturday. I have today off too, which means it’s my Sunday even though it’s your hump day.
I hate my new work schedule, I really do. Let’s look at the monstrosity [...]

In which I’m going to go on and on about “women’s troubles,” so depending on who you are you may just want to stop reading right… about… HERE.
This morning I felt noticeably better than I did yesterday.
At first I attributed my calmness and clarity to my recent daily intake of Vata tea, but then The [...]

October 2nd, 2009

In which I write about a topic that is probably only interesting to me.
I really dig smoking.
A lot.
But I’ve done a great deal of it, and for the past year or so it’s been becoming less and less fun. I’m a judgmental bitch, so let me inform you here and now that I’ve always [...]

September 10th, 2009

In which I’m a little worried about my instrument.
I’m playing the Rally In The Valley – a biker rally, natch – tomorrow night. Outside. At night. It will most likely be both damp and chilly: not good conditions for a weak voice.
Then I’m supposed to play a chichi benefit gig on Saturday afternoon in the [...]

In which I make a list.
Since I’m in the second half now, I should start establishing baselines. Don’t you think that’s wise? I haven’t had a regular doctor since I had a pediatrician, so no one really knows what typical or normal readings are for me.
I’ve decided to choose a GP more or less at [...]

In which I want the whole Intarwebz to know how good those folks are over at Valley Vision.
Last month, I acknowledged that I really could not see anything clearly any more. I know what traffic signs say because of their shape and color, but I had to admit I really could no longer truly see [...]

In which it’s winter. And slow at work. And I can walk! (Oh, wait, I already could walk. Yeah. It’s that I can see! Yeah, I can see! It’s a miracle! A five hundred dollar miracle!)
I overheard the moms in the office saying that the schools will be closed tomorrow… due to the weather.
The [...]

July 18th, 2008

In which there was an unexpected overnight package.
Since I have a gig tonight immediately after work, I had Kaje drive me home on our lunch hour so I could do my hair and face and change clothes. (I straightened my hair, but blew off the clothes-changing and merely packed my makeup into my purse. Lazy [...]

July 16th, 2008

In which I bitch and moan.
The best thing about blogging is that one can complain all she wants. Which is exactly what I’m going to do. You probably should not read this:
My neck and upper back are totally fucked up. I can’t turn my neck, and have to rotate my entire upper body to look [...]
