I may be slow, but I just noticed that my iTunes software knows what color my iPod mini is! This is, like, the fucking CUTEST little programming detail ever. I bet it would know if I plugged in a pink iPod mini. (Just thinking about it makes me all geeked out!) It knows what color […]

If you haven’t eaten peanuts in a very long time, you might have forgotten how weird they are. Some peanuts are perfect examples of peanuthood, and they look just like an infinity sign and they have two perfect nuts inside. Other peanuts make you wonder if you shouldn’t stop eating all this obviously genetically-damaged material: […]

I love everybody who reads my blog. I love everybody who posts sweet nothings to me in the comments. I love that half of you are almost as whacked as I’ve become; it makes me feel like less of a total freak and more like I’m quasi-normal. I mostly want to say, “I’m not worthy.” […]

I just had an hour-long panic attack, right here in my own office. IN THE MORNING. (I usually enjoy adrenaline hell in the evening, in the privacy of my own home.) I had to leave my desk and walk around the block. I poured out almost a whole latte and filled my water bottle instead. […]

Today sucked. Today my body stopped being in crisis mode from blood loss, and decided it was time to acknowledge pregnancy loss. AF is here and with her comes all her attending CRAP. I’m a big purple bruise emotionally. I really need a fucking shower. And… and… and I just feel bad. Oh, and my […]

NOTE: This is a story about bleeding, a LOT of bleeding, and two hospitals. It’s pretty graphic. There’s an OBGYN in it and an exam and everything. YHBW. So yesterday my body finally decided to have that long-awaited miscarriage. I woke up early, bleeding. Had cramps, then had worse cramps, then had pain. I asked […]

I have one! I have one! OH MY GOD I have one! And it’s blue, and it’s wonderful, and Mr. Brett gave it to me because he’s totally superior in every way, and I love it! It’s my brand new Apple iPod mini, and YES IT IS every bit as tiny and geeky and cute […]
