Yes, I’ve been notably absent. Struggling thru work, making things, trying to keep Thing 2 from eating ally possessions. Ain’t easy! But now that the Con is done and I can breathe for a bit, I’m back. I’m buried under a lot of debt, so I can’t say how many more Cons are in myContinue reading “What A Long, Strange Trip…”

I used to say it was stupidity. But I was wrong. It’s douchebaggery. It’s treating others like crap. It’s jumping all over someone without hearing them. This is borne of my experience at Hannaford yesterday. It was pretty packed, but I finished shopping, found the most reasonable line, and got in it. With a cart,Continue reading “The Real Pandemic”

For real, where the hell did August, September, and October go? For that matter, where did the beginning of November go? I guess time flies when you’re having fun, and Halloween and my birthday in Texas were both awesome fun. I suppose now, time is going to FLY towards the holidays, which will be hereContinue reading “Quick…It’s November”

I originally didn’t want to be on Instagram, but was told that as an author and an artist, it would be better to increase an online presence. Sure, it happens on all the apps, but damn, I’m really tired of it. I’m talking about stalking. Men who follow me who I don’t know. They usuallyContinue reading “How Not To Win Someone Over”

I know there are a few animal lovers who follow me, so I’m putting out a call to help home a pupper. Meet Harper. He’s a handsome boy, about 8 years old, and Lab/Mastiff mix. Sadly, he’s aggressive with children and other male dogs. He’s fine with female dogs and with cats, and looks toContinue reading “Rescue Alert”

So my sugar has been pretty bad now for nearly 3 weeks. I don’t eat the best, but I certainly am careful. Oh, wait. Maybe it’s because Blue Cross is holding my health hostage. They literally will not pay for my scrips now unless I switch to the Magellan mail pharmacy. One of my diabetesContinue reading “Health Don’t-Care”

This is a new project I dreamed up because frankly, without Cons happening, I need some kind of fuel. You’ve seen my takes on the Tarot, and while I enjoyed doing them, I wanted a little more. I want my own deck, similar to the Tarot, but not the Tarot. Something I know how toContinue reading “Cards Fortuna”

So with 2 friends, I went to the socially-distant Lights in the Park. For those not in the area, Washington Park is set up with light displays, courtesy of several businesses. They’re colorful, and a bit uplifting, and you don’t have to leave your car. Add appropriate music, and it’s a nice (heated) way toContinue reading “O The Lights”

Half of me is ready for the holidays. Half of me isn’t. Which isn’t that unusual, since the holidays usually trigger a lot of depression. This time, though, Covid is in the equation. And it’s getting worse, not better. Because people just can’t get their shit together. For example, I was in a diner gettingContinue reading “December”

Ok, I did my Halloween favorites, so now it’s time for the Christmas movie list. HAHAHAHAHA! Did you fall for that? I DON’T WATCH THEM! HAH! GOTCHA! There are a very few Christmas things I watch. VERY few. Rudolph. Just Rudolph. Not his shiny New Year. And I like the Grinch. The animated one. TheContinue reading “Now The Other List”
