Happy snooze year
I am waiting for Anne to arrive. I made stuffed pablano peppers. I haven’t eaten a real meal today and I made the mistake of adjusting my septum ring right after I cut habaneros. It still smarts.
Hope you have a safe and happy new year and all that shit. I plan on getting smashed [...]
Honest patchwork
Half written posts clog up a section of Wordpress - the “manage” section. This probably doesn’t mean a damn thing to you, but I save some sites there, or story ideas and whatnot. The problem is, there are a lot of half-finished posts just sitting in digital purgatory. Some are rants. Others, just incomplete thoughts. [...]
In the west
Since I am on a bellydancing kick… I thought I would do some research about Portland and see if they had anything to offer. They do! This studio looks amazing. So, I will get a job, find a house, bike, run, laugh and belly dance. It’s going to be a good life out there.
Wine, women and naps.
I don’t nap often. I can’t slow down enough to get my mind to rest without the help of my meds. If you are curious, and I know you are, I don’t take sleeping pills. But sleep without chemical help remains an impossibility unless I am very exhausted. I was tired yesterday. I took a [...]
Noodle bowl
This looks nice. I would like 2. One for me and one for D. I also like the pot rack. Good stuff.
Books in audio…online
I am going to listen to a few of these while I’m at work. Distractions are wonderful.
One iPod isn’t enough
Oh my. This article could be about me. I think I have 3 iPods, and I proposed to D with one. It’s become a part of our everyday culture. Each morning I start my day with a cup of coffee and the soothing sounds of my iPod video. For a while, I even had movies [...]
Head in the shell
Christmas passed. I kept my phone on silent on purpose. No offense to anyone, but I didn’t feel like talking. This happens every year. I quietly mourn the loss of my idealistic Christmas memorys as they fade further, losing their sharp edges, becoming nothing more than a blurry light in the shadow of my mind. [...]
Because I’m tired
Since the end of the week I’ve …. well…yes… this is another list…
been hung over at work
remembered how much I love Orange Blossom Pilsner
missed a friends gathering (Sorry ginny and amanda)
rediscovered my love for the in laws
snored
cried
sat on the couch while D did homework
sung at the top of my lungs
manage to make it to target [...]

What would you do if someone gave you a jar of home made salsa for Christmas?
Dum deeee dum…
It’s another list day:
Plans overwhelm the “break”
Three family engagements
Two friend engagements
Need to walk the dogs
I slept in
I stayed up too late reading my Final Fantasy Guide
Yes, I am a dork
Yes, I’m thirty.
Yes, I’m still a kid.
No, I don’t care.
My wrists still hurt.
Want to see a couple movies on the break.
Pissy because D gets the week [...]
Dead Can…yeah…make me dance
So, I am working late (5 is late for me) and I am listening to Dead Can Dance. I am playing through all of the albums and I have decided that this is perfect belly dancing music — except the acapella pieces. Some of it is fast enough to do the sharp moves, but much [...]
I have breasts
I am still plagued with cramps and a bad attitude about work. The cure? Coffee and NPR. Then there will be podcasts and a little Love and Rockets and later a trip to Target to return those nifty pants I bought last night. And I lost the receipt. I look forward to arguing with them [...]
So………
Wrote this long post about belly dancing and birthdaughters and Wordpress ate it.
Such is life.
Frack this! I need a nap
Belly good
We are having a chili cook off at work, and I needed 5 bucks to eat.
This will meander, but go with me.
I could have run to the credit union down the road, but I went to Target instead. Retail therapy, my friends. I wanted a belly dancing outfit -something comfy, but fitted. For almost a [...]
It’s almost a holiday, but still Monday
I only have energy for a list.
Our vet takes too long on a Sunday night.
The visit for Pip kept me up way past my bedtime.
I appreciate the night appointments, bug damn.
Bellydancing - tonight (right Anne?!?!?!)
I have cramps.
And that thing that comes with cramps….got that too.
I think men should have periods and cramps.
It’s only fair.
My tires [...]
The sound of falling rain
For almost 10 minutes, while I contemplated the sensation of my last cloves in my chest, I listened to the tap-tap of rain on my sycamore. His leaves changed suddenly this year. For two weeks he has rained brown, crunchy leaves. Some cling to nearly naked branches. My camera longs to document this fall, but [...]
