Washer and Dryer

In: Did I forget to mention?

Sometimes it’s the mundane things that matter.

I love the sound of rain falling down on the porch. It’s musical, the random cadence of nature. I’m very lucky, very.

The State of my Onion

In: Did I forget to mention?

I think it is my new favorite. You can slice ‘em. You can saute ‘em. I just don’t like them raw.

The Ongoing

In: Did I forget to mention?

So after day 3 I realize that this may not necessarily be the right thing for me…everyone there is so damn young. It’s almost embarrassing….

First Day

I don’t look good in kahki’s and a hawiian shirt…that’s for damn sure.

Remember

In: Did I forget to mention?

A sunrise in Miami, when it all began. It’s been over for months now. I realize I’m missing nothing, for you couldn’t give me the necesseties, much less amenities.

Grrrowl

In: Did I forget to mention?

Well, I think the little beagle is here to stay. We have named him: Loki. Appropriate, I think. Loki was the god of trickery, but also the god of change. Maybe his coming heralds a new chapter in our lives, maybe we just lucked out and now have a damn cute friend for Puck, who [...]

Wonder for Her

In: Did I forget to mention?

She smiles at me from a wall in the living room and I remember that she was born with gray eyes. I don’t know her father anymore. We have not spoken for years. And sometimes I wonder if he still believes he was crazy when he signed away his rights to her. I know I [...]

Burning Fog

In: Did I forget to mention?

Scooted home for some lunch and I saw the most disturbing thing: an accident. I didn’t see it happen, but I must have missed it by minutes. Two white cars, one older Buick, the other a Lexus and two bloodied people crying on the side of the road. There were several cop cars there [...]

Last night was nice and mellow. A huge departure from my feelings on Thursday night. What did we do? I immersed myself in my favorite dish ever: mole pablano (I swear to god they put drugs in it - it makes me happy just smelling the stuff!) at Margartia’s Grill. Their salsa is the best [...]

Freaking Out

I don’t know why it happened, but I had a slight case of raging insanity last night. It doesn’t make any sense. I had eaten, run, and taken a nap before we got there. I was upbeat about hanging out for his birthday. I bought him the present I thought he could use, and would [...]

Le Sigh

In: Did I forget to mention?

I had an interview today with Tews. I interviewed with them a few months ago but I royally fucked it up. When asked “What would your co-workers say about you” I replied ” They would say that I’m moody.” Brilliant, no? So, this time I my intelligent reply was “They would say I can get [...]
