Being a running list: exiguious manque approbation ratiocenation
In which I share the story of my 2010 pilgrimage to Mother’s feet. Guru brahma gurur visnuh gurudevo mahesvarah guru saksat parambrahma tasmai srigurave namah (I prostrate to that Sri Guru who is Brahma, Vishnu, and God Maheshwara, and who is verily the Supreme Absolute Itself.) At the very front of the archana book, there […]
In which I’ve completed phase one of the Back To School project. A week ago I went to a training benefits meeting at WorkSource, and they gave me an application to fill out. In the last week I did just that, then attached about 17 pages of appendices, applied to WWCC and for financial aid, […]
In which I heartily approve. Yes. Yes, yes, yes. Yes. If you’re not familiar with the details of the good doctor’s story, Dr. Wakefield is the guy who published the shoddy research that led thousands of people to believe that there was a link between certain vaccinations and autism. I say ‘shoddy’ because The Lancet […]
In which I’m torn between really liking a device that works well, and feeling like I should never use it again. Last December, I bought myself an Amazon Kindle as a Christmas-slash-layoff present. I bought it not because I didn’t already have a way to read ebooks (I have four separate ebook apps on my […]
In which we take a look at the blue dog for a sec. Best dog ever, scowling at me for making her sit while I snap her picture with my cell phone.
In which I’ve chosen a plan of action. I’ve been unemployed for six months now. I’ve determined that there is no work for me here: I’m either overqualified or under-qualified for everything. To continue living here in the valley, I either have to find a minimum-wage job that doesn’t have thirty other applicants who are […]
In which I recap my madcap, whirlwind, SUPERfun trip to the cit-ay! By 8:30 Friday morning I was in Sheila‘s van, heading west. Her awesome daughters let me ride shotgun, which was supercool of them. The ride was lovely – watching the land change from desert to rain forest is beautiful every single time I […]
In which there’s about to be a wee bit o’ travel. I’m going to Portland this weekend! My girl from the paper saw my tweet about wanting to go see Cory Doctorow sign books at Powell’s and offered me a place in her van! I’ve got a ride up the Gorge and back! Squee! I […]
In which I tell you about my weekend. And the crazy fluctuations in my state of mind. (Seriously, watching your mind do whatever it does is EVER an exercise in weird.) Friday night I went out and got drunk for no good reason. I hadn’t intended to get drunk, but I was sitting at the […]
