Sinuses part deux

Last time I’ll complain, I promise!
It got so bad that I had to stay home yesterday. I hated doing it, because we have very little time to take off at my job, and to use up one of those precious days so early in the year…. But I was already in agony when I woke [...]

Sinus problems again

I’ve been having a lot of pain again.  Last week, it was as bad as a migraine.  This week started to feel better, but got worse again by Thurs.   Last night, I was in agony.  It got so bad that by midnight, I actually considered going to the ER because I was desperate for some [...]

When the moon is in the Seventh House…!

First of all:

Last night, the song “Aquarius” was on the radio. Every time I hear it, I remember going to a show in Philadelphia that featured the song and dance styles of each decade. The second act started with the 60s. The cast was artfully arranged in sihloutte and started to sing [...]

Teachers

Last night, I started thinking of some teachers that really touched my life, where meeting them was a significant milestone and changed me for the better. I guess you can say that about any teacher to some degree — some bad ones strongly affected the rest of my life too, for the worst — [...]

Kleenex kittens and Cap Puppy

When you’re feeling down, take the time to go awwwwwwwwwwwww!!

Story rejected

I got another rejection letter.  Sigh.  I’ll have to find another place to submit it to, but for now, I’m just bummed.
I’ve had a bad streak this whole month and I’ve felt all along that 2008 wasn’t going to be a good year.  So far, that’s holding true and I just hope it’s not an [...]

Trying to find an art print

Years ago, I saw a print that I fell in love with, but I couldn’t afford it then. I wrote down its title and artist, but lost it. I thought it was a John Waterhouse piece, but so far, I’ve never seen it in any of his collections. It [...]

Miscarriage milestone

It was 5 years ago today that I had my miscarriage.  It’s such an odd anniversary.  I’ve made peace with it, I don’t have the pain I suffered with before, but it’s like everything else about.  I think about what might have been, a little wistfully, a little surprise.  To think I’d have a child [...]

Lousy day

I’m twenty pounds overweight.  I haven’t been this heavy since high school when I lost 45 pounds.  I blew an audition for a part I really wanted.  My Cain story fell flat with readers.   And I’ve had a sinus headache that’s reached migraine levels this whole week.
Sigh….

To all our pets….

Dear Dogs and Cats,
The dishes with the paw print are yours and contain your food. The other dishes are mine and contain my food. Please note, placing a paw print in the middle of my plate [...]
