Like Christmas...yippee! This too will surely pass.
I don't usually wake up at 5AM on Christmas any longer, but when finally do crack open my little hazel microscopes to the world I still get that sense of wonder. I usually can guess most of what I will recieve, but I'm always surprised by something. When I was growing up, Christmas was the only day that was never sullied by flying knick-knacks, ( Read more... ) -
Scary Experience
Yesterday I went to the mall to buy a halloween costume. Normally I try to avoid the mall 'cuz it's really scary. Imagine this cary scene. All of the teenagers look light dirty stupid clones. The employee behind the counter and the customer she is serving both have completely black teeth and Ani Difranco is playing ove the intercom. -
Good evening, my fellow Vermont voters...
I am sure I am not the only person to listen to the Sanders/Tarrant debate last night. And I doubt that anyone I know would even vote for Tarrant so I'm probably preaching to the choir with this post but here goes anyhow.

I was messing around with my front storm door trying to put up a little sign that says, ( Read more... ) -

Today is the second anniversary of the day that Rachel and I were unionized. We just say were married 'cuz we actually are, if you read the civil union law it basically gives us the same rights and privileges of marriage here in the fine state of Vermont. They just called it something else to appease the homophobic bigots ( Read more... ) -
Exorcising ghosts
I had a great visit to Bennington this past weekend. Part of the visit was spent visiting my mother's best friend. She was like a 2nd mother to me growing up and I was best friends with one of her daughters since we were in diapers. I say "was" friends because in middle school she met the love of her life and abandoned our friendship, or least that ( Read more... ) -
A new addiction caused by butt pain...
Holy shit, I had such pain yesterday I was in tears. The evening before I ate chinese food that I knew would be a problem but didn't figure it would be that bad that I'd have to stay home from work nursing my ass. It was so bad! It felt like someone had shoved a flaming stake uo my ass and started twisting. Thank god I had valium and plenty of weed ( Read more... ) -
What!
The other day as I was changing into clothes to leave the house and I thought, Oh my god! I've turned into Mr. Rogers. I guess that makes Mr. Rogers very cool since he was like me, my next thought. -
A Major Shift
There is something soothing about the color of our new dish drainer, a periwinkle blue. Change is good.
