TV, Old Style
I’m not a fan of sitcoms, not anymore. This may come across snobby or arrogant, and it’s not meant to be, but I find them all to be so contrived. Maybe I’ve lost my sense of humor (it’s very possible), or maybe real life has left me so damn jaded that I’m immune to any…

My Platform
Let me start by stating what I really hope should be obvious: this is a joke. I’m kidding. But, if I ever were to run for public office, here are a few pet peeves I have, that I think maybe others share. I doubt any of them are actually addressable. Spammers and scammers. Not so…

The Annual Vent
Maybe not annual….I dunno, I haven’t done it in a couple years, maybe, and it’s not really a vent. More a reminder of where I stand on social media stuff. 1. The “If you hate cancer”. Don’t be stupid. No one LOVES cancer…or any other illness thrown into this ridiculous post. Repost…why? To increase awareness?…

Defining Loneliness
Here I am again, after a long absence. Right now I’m having one of those lives where things conspire to nickel and dime away your time. Contractors working on the kitchen and bathroom (since Oct 29th…but let’s not go there). Making art. Writing (book 3, which has a couple titles on the shelf). Dealing with…

New Things
First off, yes, the site looks different. No, I don’t particularly like it but not sure how to fix it. But…it’ll get there. Second off…up? On? New stuff: cards. I like this concept. Whether other people do remains to be seen. And I’m still sort of messing about with price points. But basically, cards. Sort…

In The Loop
Upcoming events! Niskayuna Farmers Market!!!! Ok, overall, I’m a bit leery of outdoor events, because all my product is paper. Even if it doesn’t rain, damp or humidity can do a job on the books, but I need to be outside, and I love farmer’s markets, and I’m about summer, so I’ll take the risk. …

Enough Already
With the hate. No wonder so many of us have anxiety and depression and want nothing to do with people. Every single encounter has a chance to erupt into an argument, and possibly escalate to violence. Everyone is on the edge, everyone is insanely opinionated, and a lot of someones are self-absorbed and entitled. I…

What Am I?
I am an artist. It is always hard to say that. It is hard to accept myself as such. I often consider myself mediocre, or inferior, but I’ve sold artwork for money. People like my artwork, strangers included. I have been complimented frequently on my line work. My work has been called “creepy but cool”. …

Touching Base
So, updating for those out of the loop. Or for those who simply haven’t talked to me in a while. (What happened to all those “check in on a friend” posts everyone puts up all the time? I guess my anxiety/depression isn’t really bad enough for me to merit that.) 55 days left on the…

An Apology
For what’s to come. Nothing major, but it’s almost February, which means I will disappear. Because if I stick around, it’s not pretty. February is everything horrific in my life. My mother and grandmother died 3 days apart in 1985, and while my relationship with my mother was absolutely rotten, I adored my grandmother, and…
