The most useless thing you’ll ever need

because i should write something

Today I called in sick because when I got out of bed this morning, I was convinced that I had died sometime during the night and I was awake and walking around my house only because I wasn’t ready to admit that I was actually dead.  So, something like Keith Richards must go through every […]

beads on a wire

I didn’t make anything this week.  It all works out though, because I made this last week and didn’t post about it.  How fortuitous.  This is a 22″ necklace made of agate, carnelian and silver and I know I’m biased because I made it and all, but it’s really really pretty.  Especially when light hits […]

the result of fever-induced delerium

For the love of God, could I please stop getting sick?  I’m really quite tired of it, and furthermore, I don’t even understand what the deal is.  I mean, when I used to work with kids I was sick all the time and I understood it because, well, let’s face it — children are disease-mongering […]

how to rock: a guide

Yesterday, I was thinking about that Van Halen song which claims that there’s only one way… there’s only one way… to ROCK!  To my regular readers, I’m sure this comes as no surprise.  The thing is, I think Van Halen needs to shut up (for many reasons, really), because there are obviously myriad methods of […]

9 in 10 think i’m witty, and other observations

Yo.  I have a post planned for tomorrow (or the next day, depending) that should be up to my usual standard of tear-inducing brilliance.  Really.   But I’m in a weird mood today, not a bad one, just a weird one, so I don’t think I can do it justice.
So, thanks to those of you who […]

no, tell me what you really think

See, I had written this other post, and then my modem decided it wanted to play its favorite game, a little something called “I’m only pretending to be connected to the internet. Go ahead, hit save!” Oh, how I love my cable modem.  We have this kind of fun together all the time.
Anyway, since I’m […]

things i do when i get bored

Make a new banner for the ol’ website.
Choreograph my “I don’t have to work on Presidents’ Day la la la” dance.
Eat a cookie. It’s okay because I worked out this afternoon.
Contemplate Pilates DVDs and decide that there should be a market for non-perky, sarcastic exercise gurus who say things like “Yeah, just think about how sore […]

everything you were ever looking for

All day today I’ve been feeling as though my head might explode, which has nothing to do with an actual headache, but everything to do with people who are annoying and/or patronizing and need to shut up.  But then I looked out of my window and noticed two cats across the street getting it on, and […]

dr. phil wears eyeliner, and other stories

Last night, I was so glad that I was not in a relationship, so I wouldn’t feel obligated to go out on Valentine’s Day.  Because if I had gone out, I would’ve missed the Dr. Phil Love Smart prime time special.  Now, as I’ve established before, I hate Dr. Phil, but I do these things […]

reveling in my singlehood

So, tomorrow is Valentine’s Day.  It’s a holiday I don’t care much about one way or the other, but then, some holidays interest me and some don’t.  Never met an Arbor Day I didn’t like, though.  Whenever I mention that I’m not into Valentine’s Day, people make patronizig comments about how I’m just bitter because […]
