I don't know much about astrology except that they sell little rolled up scrolls of them at Safeway in the checkout line. But today in my magazine, I read my love forecast for the hell of it. Because it's there and so am I.It said that Pisces are dreamy, artistic and sensitive. And it said... Continue Reading →
restaurant hostess
Today, someone found by blog by googling, "is it hard to be a first time hostess at applebees" {sic}. Now I haven't been a hostess at Applebee's, but I have bitched about that establishment and worked as a hostess at other establishments, which in my eyes makes me an expert. So let me tell you...

white elephant
What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. ~Ecclesiastes 1:9There is nothing new on this blog. Nearly two years ago, while unemployed, I made this blog. I had a lot of time between employers not calling me and walking the dog. I... Continue Reading →
army of tweaked mes
There are very few people who I can always be completely myself around. There are a handful of people who accept me and like me for who I already am. They don't expect me to be more like them or to agree with them or to act more pious or politically correct. But with everyone... Continue Reading →

Sexless appeal
I noticed my legs were a bit grizzly yesterday before hopping into the shower. So I thought to myself, well maybe I should shave. But it's January and we have about a foot of freshly fallen snow I need to shovel and then I thought of the legs, really, why bother? And don't give me... Continue Reading →
so long, farewell
Last Friday I said "goodbye" to someone very dear to me. Only now am I able to talk about it, after having a week to process the departure. I was always comforted and offered a hot meal when I was there. I was given gifts even when it wasn't my birthday. We got tipsy from... Continue Reading →
ID for dogs
Look what came in the mail today:Apparently dogs have ID cards now. I know actual humans who can't board airplanes because they don't have identification, but my DOG has a laminated card with all his essential stats on it. What is he supposed to do with it? Put it in his dog wallet in his... Continue Reading →
I won’t correct you, but know I’m thinking it
If Steve didn't already hold the title, I'd take words as my lover.I find both the curve of the "s" and the loops of the uppercase cursive "L" very seductive.I love the way letters form words, and the same letters can make thirty words. I love how syllables tumble on top of each other or... Continue Reading →
moldy cheese
I'm not much of a cook in the kitchen. So my job to help out is shredding cheese. And occasionally slicing tomatoes. Today, I was about to grate our cheese block when I saw mold. Just one little spot. I made the mistake of saying something to Steve. Now to understand this blog post, you'll... Continue Reading →
