Sometimes there aren’t words adequate to communicate one’s feelings, sentiment, reaction. For instance, “fuck” is sometimes the only appropriate response that encompasses the passionate feeling that needs both a sound and emotion. “Oh, no!” just doesn’t even begin to capture the feeling of “no, no way, are you kidding me, or you serious, that canContinue reading “Just…ugh”

So. We are under a winter storm warning, or watch, or something telling us to look out. Supposed to have ice and/or snow late tonight and into tomorrow morning. I would be ecstatic if it was snow, but I would be pissed if it was ice. Either way, it is going to be deliciously cold,Continue reading “Can’t get over it”

So, there was a Town Hall with the President last night. I didn’t watch the whole thing, but what I saw illustrated, at the very least, a return to civility. There was no name calling, no childish posturing, no poking out of the chin or puffing of the chest that has been trypical of theContinue reading “You comin’, or not?”

So. I signed up for this writing course, on an impulse. It’s supposed to provide prompts for writing, guide a writer to connect with authenticity, and help release blocks and obstacles to both. I can’t bitch and kvetch about current affairs and Q-Anon for the rest of my life, so I thought maybe that wouldContinue reading “Get to it”

So. They’ve acquitted the same President in his impeachment again. Second time around. If I could stomach the thought, I almost wish he could stay long enough to go for a trifecta of impeachment…and see if third time really is the charm. I don’t know if it would do any good, though; it would justContinue reading “So now what?”

Seriously…are we there yet? How much further? I have to go to the bathroom, and I want a snack. We probably need gas…wait…no more gas. Electric charge. There has to be a charging station around here somewhere. What happens if you can’t find a charge? Does your really expensive and really quiet car just dieContinue reading “Are we there yet?”

The childishness and hypocrisy of the far right knows no bounds. They cannot get past the reality of the Presidential election, and cannot admit, even to themselves, that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are the President and Vice-President. Of the entire United States. Not just a piece of the country, the whole thing. Perhaps theyContinue reading “Jezebel, is that you?”

Apparently the word of the day yesterday was “pussy”. The word was uttered at some point during the impeachment trial, and the interwebz are buzzing. Not sure anybody remembers why the word came up, or whether it had anything to do with the substantive business of the proceedings, but…don’t say “pussy” over the airwaves. UnlessContinue reading “I am not a cat”

This is a weird place to be, in my head. Had an MRI on Monday, and the report came back in a flash…they must have read the scans while I was still walking to my truck. Nothing remarkable, it said. No active lesions. Nothing to see here. Alrighty then. The neurologist hasn’t called, or messaged,Continue reading “Yes, and no”

Posted to FaceBook earlier: So. The beginning of the impeachment trial is done. It was…challenging for most observers. People are still trying to figure out exactly where Mr. Castro was trying to go in his long journey through far away lands of illogic and pointlessness, doubling back on itself at points, and never arriving. neverContinue reading “I see the light”
