I have left the posts that were not password-protected on here, and will keep them up for a week or so…
But after that, this blog is gone. Comment/message/email me for the new link.

A few weeks ago I went to eat at Pap’s in Ackerman for the first time. My kids were with me and the place was plastered with Elvis and Jesus. Dawg didn’t mention Jesus, but pointed to a picture and said, “Elvis!!” and I thought that was funny. So I thought it was neat and [...]

LMFAO this is the town where my husband went to high school (but not the school; he went to the academy there).

Superbowl Sunday has always been an okay day for me. I think it’s because I remember many many years ago that Superbowl Sunday was the day I learned I could have an orgasm with a man. You girls totally know what I’m talking about. Like, when you started having sex, wasn’t it like you could [...]

love is not concerned
with whom you pray
or where you slept
the night you ran away
from home
love is concerned
that the beating of your heart
should kill no one.

This year I will:
* write a short story about zombies.
* make every book under my roof a Finished Book – read all the ones I never finished.
* throw away something I like. Kill my darlings.
* write the opening sentence of my first novel.
* show my appreciation to those who have earned it.

I like being alone at work. I keep the lobby dark and I play music and sing while I work, talk to myself like I’m am completely and totally insane. Lorrie is the counselor who came in. She’s new this semester and I like her best out of the rest, but she’s still older than me. I wish there were more people like me around here. Anyway, she scares the shit out of me when she gets here. See, I was going to play some music on the computer, I went to deezer.com (the latest music streaming site I’m using at work since they have now blocked pandora and rhapsody, assholes), and I realize I took my speakers home for Jade over xmas. Oh I was pissed, but I had the mp3 player. I briefly considered “what if someone sneaks up on me?” but I can’t work without music, so an hour later I’m in here singing along with Jewel “cute boys with crew cuts and … day glow surf boooooooooooards!!!” and I get up to get some more paper out of the lobby copier and scream!! Lorrie is right there and she scared the ever livin shit outta me. She says, “I’ve tried to talk to you a couple times, but you were singin’…” LOL. Hey, it could have been worse. Once in the middle of the day Jeremy walked in with the entire FIC crew with him and I was cooking and jamming to some Regina Spektor, actually attempting the Russian part of “Apres Moi”. You should have seen the look on Tommy’s face, almost like he was scared of me.

I want to write lately but just can’t seem to make myself. In two weeks I’ll be moved out. I feel lonely but oh well, that’s all just part of it. It’s scary but staying is scarier. This song is fitting:
A Better Wife
Erin McKeown
i’m just something else he tried
a catalogue of interests in a catalogue [...]

I started two different blogs earlier. First, I have a lot to say about Sarah Palin. As a woman, as a voter, as an American, an intellectual… there is just a lot to say. I will try to have that done by the end of the weekend, but for now I just have so much [...]
