Awkward Is The New Black

Whoa. Yesterday I fell and hit my cranky bone. Hard. But today’s a new day and all that. It helps that I watched some Farscape before bed last night. The show seems to be filling my Netflix queue these days. I blame some friends who sent me the Season 1 Starburst Edition DVD. They [...]

Cognitive Displaysia And The Chronically Angry

Kvetchfest coming at ya. It’s been a long frustrating day. Nothing terrible has happened, just a gradual build-up of one minor nuisance atop another until I felt like my brain was going to asplode. It started out well enough. Saw the little man off at the bus stop and decided to take care of [...]

Everything Is An Object

Still feeling shaky and weak, but generally better today. Well enough to consume some coffee, at any rate, and throw together an obnoxiously upbeat playlist…including the likes of The Flaming Lips, General Public, The Get Up Kids, Le Tigre, Madonna, Manitoba, Metric and Superchunk.

This year’s Geek Prom is moving from Duluth…to my own backyard. I can almost see the Science Museum from my house.
Last week I started drinking coffee again, regularly, for the first time in months. Stopped by [...]

An Instance Of Gluttonous Eating

This morning I was up early, bathed and dressed even, testing out the “Fronch” toast recipe from my new Vegan with a Vengeance cookbook…all before 10am. After breakfast I offered to take the little man to the Walker’s family day festivities. But it was a no-go. And who can blame him, after rushing off [...]

Completely Sack Of Hammers

It’s safe to say that last month saw the absolute worst start to the new year possible. But it’s a fresh month now, with a clean slate, right? And I’m not on the drugs anymore…but you’d be hard-pressed to tell, judging by some of my behaviors. The other day a considerate neighbor came to [...]
