Mythological Birdshit: A History
I've never really clicked on the "writer's block" question. But tonight, I just couldn't refuse. Part of it is because I'm blank. Mostly, it's because the answer is glaringly obvious...at least to me. Then again, lots of things are usually obvious to me and no one else. Maybe it's because I tell myself something is true and never waiver from ( Read more... ) -
Ewe Are Baaad (Like This Title)
There's this word in the gay community that sometimes doesn't make sense. Well, it's not just in the gay community, but I'm not fluent in the vocabulary used amongst "breeders." I suppose I'm probably not very fluent in "gay" either. I'm mean, I'm Cherokee and I can only speak dirty words, some animals names and, of course, the names for various ( Read more... ) -
The President, Some Queens, a Prince and All Things In-between
As stated previously, last night was Matt's birthday celebration. Everyone knows it's no fun getting older so, after watching football, Tommie and I decided we should go to Kansas City to be good, supportive friends. We picked up Matt and Larry (who had just finished kicking in their door, but that's not my blog entry to make), exchanged hellos, ( Read more... ) -
Exhaling and Trying to Decipher
Officially the weekend started tonight. After my eight hour shift of indentured servitude, I rushed to the store in my beautiful silver jet. Sometimes driving my car is like flying (or piloting) a huge 747 SST. I'm sure part of it is because I zip past the other cars so rapidly I almost break the sound barrier. Who knew a Grand Prix could be so ( Read more... ) -
Kids Blowing Rainbows Out their Ass(es)
Some of you saw that one of my readers (who just happens to be a cousin I spent a lot of time with in my childhood) asked how I come up with some of my blog entries. Of course, the smart aleck in me told her that I pulled them out of my ass. But the more I think about the question, the more I realize that was probably most accurate. I mean, all ( Read more... ) -
Drunkenly Hunting for Spirituality
For some strange reason, the past few posts have had something to do with my Native American background (or, at the least, I have mentioned my cultural upbringing somewhere in the past few posts). But when I start typing about the subject, I've noticed that I begin to feel nervous about it. I'm scared my words are going to be taking as ( Read more... ) -
In Plain Sight (with the Lights Off), Waiting to Be Discovered
The nice thing about working for a company that provides contract labor for the the government (Department of Education, to be exact) is that most of the time, you have Federal holidays off....with pay. Yesterday was no different, even though it was a meaningless holiday like Columbus Day. I mean, everyone knows that Columbus didn't "discover" ( Read more... ) -
I'm Sick
But at least I can say I live in Kansas . . . -
A Silent Killer (and Not a Fart)
Since I'm fat and old, my local clinic wanted me to get some blood work done to make sure my cholesterol is fine.....and that I'm not a sugar-betic. Of course, the doctor told me I would need to fast for 12-hours. I think it was just a test (nevermind the fact food would affect the reading). Doctors seem to always tell fat people to starve ( Read more... ) -
Today
Last night, I made homemade mac and cheese for the first time. I put milk in the pan, added some spices and some butter and sliced up the cheese to throw in the pan. I put the pot of macaroni on to boil and stood there stirring the cheese. Like a good pot of gooey goodness, the cheese started melting. Then something went wrong and the cheese ( Read more... )
