i thought i wrote about my boobs a lot before…

Tonight at play rehearsal (ah yes, I’m in a play), there was a box sitting on a table that said ENTERTAINING CRACKERS and I should’ve taken a photo of it because… what? The commentary writes itself, I’m sure, so I can leave it alone. I’m lazy that way. In other news, Friday I get the … Continue reading »

of david sedaris, babies and boobs (not in that order)

So, with the job I got in November came health insurance. Since I had health insurance, I figured I might as well find a primary care doctor, because having a primary care doctor is a useful thing for those times when you need antibiotics for this or that thing, or something like that. So I … Continue reading »

thirty three

Well. It’s birthday time again. I’m usually fairly surprised when that happens, because it often feels like, hey, didn’t I just do this? But the truth is, 32 felt like it was a year long. So, no surprises here. It’s time for 33. I always used to say that I was surprised by my age … Continue reading »

i think it would take longer than five minutes

This is me when I was 21. I look a lot different now. I mean, for one thing, since then I’ve managed to have the obelisk removed from my head. If you could go back in time and have a 5 minute conversation with yourself ten years ago, what would you say? Hi there, 21-year-old … Continue reading »

i never can just answer a question

Right, I said I was writing more. So, hi. From The Daily Post today: Are you an optimist, a pessimist, or something else? I am something else. At least that’s what I hear. “That Jamelah,” they say, “she is something else.” Yeah. In the case of being an optimist or a pessimist, I am both … Continue reading »

farewell, 2010

The end of every year always feels like a weird week of suspended animation. December comes, it’s all, oh snap! Christmas! and then Christmas happens and it’s everything you hoped and dreamed it would be or it’s moderately alright or it’s nothing close (personally I was mostly alone on Christmas and spent part of the … Continue reading »

brilliant ideas i have

Sometimes I get an idea in my head and I have to do it right then. I guess that means I’m impulsive, which is kind of funny, because anybody who has ever been with me in a bookstore knows that I can take over an hour to make a decision. So I’m not impulsive. Except … Continue reading »

thirty one

Well here it is, time once again for the annual introspective birthday post. I’m not sure how it got here already; didn’t I just have one of these birthday things a couple of months ago or something? It feels like it, but here I am, no longer 30 but instead 31. I am — oh … Continue reading »

of tomatoes, memory, and broken computers (not in that order)

Well. I’ve been having an interesting summer. I sometimes catch myself in the middle of a moment — I’m outside at night, say, and the sky, not yet quite black, perhaps instead a dark velvety blue, is awash with stars, and there are fireflies twinkling in the grass, in the trees, and I look around … Continue reading »

now with more boobs

I thought maybe when I finally decided to update my blog once again, it might be about something deep or important, but this is me we’re dealing with, so… really. Boobs. Of course. So, okay. I have boobs. Two of them. I’m mostly indifferent to them, because I’ve had them since I was 10, which … Continue reading »
