Star Warrrrrrrs.

Before I get started on Star Wars, here is the new hair:

Doubtless looking a little fried, but still as tough as nails (and I do mean that in the proper sense of the word). If I could give my hair a Purple Heart for all the bleaching and crap it has withstood for the […]

I’m An Asshole…

Yesterday our church arranged a hayride and bonfire out at a farm out in Upper Butt Crack, Indiana; so off to Upper Butt Crack, Indiana we drove with my sister and her kids following.
(I unfortunately don’t have any photos of this event because my camera battery crapped out - I thought I’d recharged it, but […]

Mom Shoots Up.

Last night my mom did her first shot of Forteo, the drug that is supposed to help rebuild her bone density.
Why she enlisted me to help with this process is anyone’s guess.
We sat on the couch with the voluminous instructions, alcohol wipes, needles, and the pen. I imagined that the pen, which carries a […]

I Haven’t Had Nearly Enough Coffee.

I will never get used to these laptop mini-keys.  My typing speed has decreased exponentially while I’ve tried to grow accustomed to tip-taps rather than click-clacks.  It’s really disconcerting.
I’ve been putting off making an appointment at the Indianapolis hospital and I really can’t say why.  It’s partially because the sting of the whole Cleveland Clinic […]

I Now Remember Why School Was So Darn Much Fun.

I did bleach my hair and it actually turned out pretty good.  It’s a little gold, but another bleaching with some toner in a couple weeks when my hair has had a little time to recover will cure that.
The J-Man has a two-page report on the Gret Stet of Illinois due on Monday complete with […]

Got My Hair Did.

Laura, who is a family friend and works at the local swanky salon, came over and cut my hair short yesterday; and it looks soooo much better than that ratty black animal I have been carrying around on my head.
It’s sort of an angled bob, super short in the back and almost chin-length in […]

Be Prepared, Damn It!

Kids have no vomit warning.  They lack that adult five-second time lapse that we luckily normally possess when it comes time to puke, except in instances of extreme drunkenness or severe flu.
My poor kid has currently barfed all over:  the school, his legs, his socks, his Crocs (no big loss there, as far as I’m […]

For Kim.

I think of you in the fall
when the wind gets unstable
perhaps you’d kick my ass now when I need it
perhaps you’d just leave
I think of us laughing on the kitchen floor
breathless and spent, ridiculous
and I ache with the lack of the love of a roommate
It’s damned hard to replace a roommate
I go to bed at […]

Sloth.

I know I’m not feeling well, but someone needs to come to my home and physically drag me away from the Lifetime movies, because it is getting Out Of Control.
The plots are inane, the acting is horrible, the commercials are horrifically frequent (or perhaps not) and horribly mom-oriented, and yet I CANNOT TURN AWAY.
Obviously I […]
