…but the irony is I’m not. So what’s the point? Why take abuse for pennies? Sorry for the brief post. It’s just the day before Thanksgiving. Will post more tomorrow evening.

…oh Christmas tree, how thorny are thy fricken branches that cut me and made me bleed and now itch from the thousand and two microscopic fleshwounds covering my arms and legs. Yep, you guessed it. I put up my Christmas tree today, breaking one of my own cardinal rules–NO CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS BEFORE THANKSGIVING! Alas, the…

Jessica Lang will forever be the beauty that tamed Kong. Lately, though, she seems to have stumbled into the realm of ‘crazy beautiful spurned chick who goes psycho’, a path that other great beauties have followed as well.

I sat there today, watching the Washington Spin Machine as they tried to solidify some image of the President’s resent trip into insanity (also known as Great Britain).

I don’t envy the people suffering through the blackout. Especially considering that I’m under not one but two deadlines. A book review for a new online magazine is wooshing by, and the deadline for the next chapter of Tuscany was on Friday. Neither are completed quite yet. So this blog will be brief. I have…

Three times. That’s the number of times I threw up yesterday morning. I wouldn’t mention it, except that it corresponds to the number of times people have, in the last week, asked me to qualify for the October primary against a certain state representative. The money’s there, the people are there, but I’m not. Aparently,…
