an open letter to my neighbor’s horrifying halloween decorations

Dear My Neighbor’s Horrifying Halloween Decorations,
Last Christmas I gave you my heart and the very next day, you gave it away I wrote to your cousins, the horrifying Christmas decorations, yet your presence on the lawn in front of my neighbor’s house leads me to believe that my epistle did no good. Call it […]

welly well well

Here it is, Sunday evening. I really meant to update before now, but I didn’t feel like writing anything, and how I chose to handle that situation should be fairly obvious. I’m over it now, so here’s some disjointed randomness.
It’s been an okay weekend here in Jamelah land. Really. […]

three things i am not writing about

Over the course of a single day, I come up with a lot of potential topics for website fodder. I discard most of them, and this is best for everyone. Sometimes I start a post as a way of noting my idea and then save it as a draft to be finished at a later […]

uh

I think that meme killed my desire to update this thing ever again, so congratulations. Or maybe it just killed my desire to update this thing, like, today. It’s hard to say. Fish fillet. Do you know the way to San Jose?
I’m going to stop rhyming now.
Of course, I don’t have much of anything to […]

a meme, sandwiched by random

Random, Part the First
Shostakovich and Ryan Adams. It’s been that kind of weekend.
Meme
Okay, people. You asked for it. And though I could’ve done this as a comment, it involved so much writing and thinking that I figured I might as well go ahead and make it a post of its own. So, without further ado, […]

no, but this one is actually interesting, i swear

I promise that I haven’t been bitten by the meme bug and that I am still capable of coming up with ideas for posts. It’s just that I’m still sick (I think maybe I have the consumption) and I have very little energy for things that don’t involve sleeping or watching TV. Be that as […]

thirty questions

I didn’t feel like coming up with original material today, but fortunately, I encountered this meme so I can just answer the questions and call it good. Ta-da:
1. Name someone with the same birthday as you.
D.H. Lawrence, who is dead.
2. Where was your first kiss?
I was 5 (yes, 5) and dancing at a wedding with […]

a quick observation for wednesday morning

Ahem:
Cinnamon Roll Pop Tarts — food of the gods. I guess. I mean, I’m not a god, but I really enjoy this particular Pop Tart variety, so I’m not sure what that does to my theory. In any case, they are the best kind of Pop Tart ever.
Except for Britney Spears.
There […]

at the window (a retrospective)

So I decided that since I couldn’t smoke anyway, I might as well quit smoking. I’m reticent to say that I’m a non-smoker now, however, because I know how I am. This may be a self-defeating attitude, but really, other than that three-week stretch in 1997, and despite good intentions, I’ve basically been […]

oh, and because i like to pimp things…

Utata did a weekend project called Verbiage, which is a collection of photographs of verbs. Who doesn’t like verbs? Everybody likes verbs, because without them, we’d just be completely inactive. Except we couldn’t even be, because being is a verb.
Ow, my head.
Anyway, it’s really very fun to click that “luck of the […]
