In which I check in. I wrote this really long, boring entry about how the oil pressure gauge in the jeep no longer works, but decided to spare you it and say instead that it’s awesome to be at my mom’s house! So relaxing. Driving is tedious and boring and I do not understand why […]
In which I now consider myself to be a resident of the Left Coast, visiting Iowa for a week. I’m baaaaaaaaaaaaack! Back online and back in Iowa, that is. The captain of my flight out of Portland said that we could listen in to the air traffic control chatter on channel 9 if we wanted […]
In which I’ve made it! I took a commuter flight from CID (Cedar Rapids, IA) to ORD (Chicago O’hare). Then I took a big ass jet from ORD to PDX (Portland, OR) where my kick-ass baby brother picked me up and promptly took me to a dive bar so I could decompress over a few […]
In which I must be part bear or something. It’s warming up to birthday time! I can tell because I’ve been getting gifts already. (I love gifts.) Someone emailed me an entire Ben Folds album, and someone else bought me lunch via Paypal. (Fear of Pop, Vol. I rocks, by the way. I’d already had […]
In which I say hi. (“Hi!”) Greetings from Oak Brook, Illinois, where I live in a hotel room at a Marriott with NLW, who came down with a sinus infection and hasn’t left the room in 30 hours! I watched fireworks from the parking lot on the 4th and it was good. I have eaten […]
In which I’m quite recovered from my melancholy. I’ve known for awhile that The Ex has himself a new squeeze, though folks have been trying to hide it from me. (No need to, I’m glad to hear it.) I’ve put a few clues together from various things I was told at the party and things […]
In which it was the best time I’ve ever had outdoors in the Midwest! Yesterday I traveled the Mississippi on a pontoon boat with some friends. I got a sunburn. I’d been wearing sunglasses all day, so today I look like a raccoon. The skin on my cheeks, forehead, and nose is bright red and […]
In which it’s good to be home. In other words: I’m back, bitches! Oh, people, I had so much fun in Vail! It was, on the surface, a really lovely little jaunt. The surroundings were awesome, the gig went well, I did some knitting, I bonded with the other players in the band, we pre-sold […]
In which I’m on musician time. We were supposed to leave at four. Now we’re leaving at seven. And these boys are clean, if you catch my drift, nothing to blame it on but musician time. With the hope that I will be able to use a pool, whirlpool, or sauna at the hotel this […]
In which I’m rather looking forward to leaving town. I finished my laundry last night, and found a piece of luggage, and threw the stuff I’ll be taking into a pile in the middle of my room. Then I cooked for an hour, because I felt like cooking. Chana chole. Rice with cumin and peas. […]
