At Home
PDX Transit
Recent text thread between S and me – he was supposed to take me to a doctor appointment, but Agreement #3 says “Don’t Make Assumptions”. Well….I assumed he was taking me, once I got home and he assumed he was picking me up from work and taking me to the doctor. S: I’m on my […]
MoreYin and Yang
Last weekend I woke up groggy from two days straight of all grey clouds with no rain to speak of. What the hell is the point of clouds without rain anyway, I ask?! Who knows, but it left me dragging ass all damn day. Fortunately, or unfortunately, we had to go to the grocery store. Once […]
MoreFeelin’ Good
Video from one of the last ArtWalks I went to before we moved from JAX. And, of course, I can’t remember the band’s name, but they were fabulous!
MoreJazz for Jesus
S and I have been trying to explore the city as much as possible since we moved. He’s much better at it than I am, however. He’s still not working – because they want people to have a Masters Degree to qualify for jobs like waiting tables. Wouldn’t your parents be so happy to know […]
MoreOpportunity Knocks
Opportunity is all around us – we just have to be willing to see it…or have the balls to grab it. Ooorrrrr…sometimes, you just need to admit you’re kind of an unscrupulous a$$hole.
MoreWalgreens, NYC Style
I’m wondering what one really needs an At Home Drug Test kit for anyway….wouldn’t you know if you were high? And if you were high, wouldn’t you kind of already know how you got that way to begin with? I’m really curious.
MoreJesus and Betty
After I parked next to this vehicle and got out, I was assaulted with a plethora of bad window decals. Immediately, I wondered “Does this mean Jesus loves Betty Boop?” According to the stickers this giant SUV he does…although it kind of looks like maybe he’s just looking down on old Betty and thinking to himself “Jesus […]
MoreA Horse? Of course!
I have no idea if his name is Ed, or Mr. Crazy Pants McGhee, but I am going with the latter….
MoreMy pee got scared!
A few weeks ago, I had to take a pee test to check for drugs in my system. No, I’m not on probation (to some of you and yours surprise, I am sure). Rather, I recently received a stellar offer to relocate to Portland and part of the company’s pre-employment screening process involves a background check […]
MoreTem-uh-COOL-uh!
Recently, my baby brother got married. His partner is a lovely woman – smart, sassy, good taste, beautiful, and gives my brother a solid run for his money. She possesses all of the qualities one could hope for when being an overly judgmental sister, 10 years his elder, and I really like her alot! They […]
MoreDon’t cats groom themselves?
This was the first question I asked myself when a friend of mine told me she was taking her cat to the groomer. Of course, it would make more sense that the cat needed to go if it were a long-hair Persian or Himalayan that was covered with knots and balls of matted up fur. […]
MoreMy bike is more famous than I am…..
Sometime back, a friend of mine and I liberated a bike from the horrors of decomposition on Atlantic Beach. Since then, she has lived a lovely life in the Urban Core, spending her days within the confines of our loft, or out schmoozing with rock stars….literally. Last Sunday, my friend Carlos was volunteering to sell […]
MoreFair Trade
Poor S got conned into dog sitting again this weekend….by me…..HA! Our friends went out of town, so we watched their obnoxious little terrier-mix, named Riley. Okay, truthfully….Riley’s not really that obnoxious….only when the doorbell rings and he barks his head off, or he has to walk outside, on a leash and he tries to kick […]
MoreSouthern “Charm”
Wheels down – and not a moment too soon: Me: I am seriously being subjected to a sermon on the plane by the two people in the row behind me right now. Mom: Southern bible thumpers? Me: YES Mom: Ugh Me: Talking about how the devil is alive and well because there are “witch doctors” […]
