Hi again all!  Thanks for your lovely comments.  I thought that I was a bit more explanatory about what was going on in my life before I dropped out of existence, but apparently I was not.  Here's the deal:
Rob and I had not been happy for a little while, and things were not fun in my house.  Dark, oppressive, sad.  For both of us.  I started seeing ( Read more... )

Hi everyone!  Sorry, I know I've been LJ lame.  I posted this entry at MySpace and then decided to make it private out of respect for Rob.  So I thought I'd put it here.  Life is good, amazing even.  I'm completely smitten with this Pakistani comedian I recently started dating, someone I started hanging out with because I felt more comfortable ( Read more... )

...........I haven't posted in forever.  Don't yell at me!  I have been sporadically checking up on people, but not commenting.  I'm lurking in my own LJ
Life has been pretty good, and I post at MySpace a lot, so go there if you want a blow-by-blow.  I'm doing well, I miss you NC folks, and I've just added some great Chicago folks, so maybe I'll ( Read more... )

I could post about all the growing, healing, messiness, ugliness, pontification, and drunkenness, but instead, I feel like posting this:

In short, you take two peeps, lick them each on one side, stick a toothpick on the licked side of each peep, face them towards each other, microwave, and whoever doesn't get stabbed WINS.

Happy Easter.  PS, David Sedaris was AWESOME.  I just wanted to put him in my pocket. 

I was going to just paraphrase this, but it's too good. I have to reprint the whole thing. This is from the RedEye, the daily free paper here ( Read more... )

Unabashedly, with no shame or hesitation, I ordered two tickets today to go and see David Sedaris speak in Elgin IL in April.  It's my birthday present to myself, and I don't know who is going with me, because Rob could care less about Sedaris.  So if you live in Chicago, will be visiting Chicago, or are now planning on visiting Chicago if there's ( Read more... )

This day has been charmingly strange.  Consider the evidence:

1---- I was walking out the door this morning, wearing one of my new longer shirts (bought due to my freakishly long torso that makes every shirt look too short on me), when I thankfully looked in the mirror.  The white shirt, which I didn't try on because the green, black, purple, and ( Read more... )

If so, have I got the document for you!  Check out this "Contract of Wifely Expectations" over at The Smoking Gun, discovered when the moron who wrote it actually tried to kidnap his own wife.  It outlines expectations for her body hair, clothing choices, and sleeping arrangements, among other things.  And how could you not fall for a man who ( Read more... )
