Ode to Tea

I scratched this out quite a few years ago. But since I can’t seem to think up any worthwhile blogging contribution to make right now, I thought I’d post this, my Ode to Tea:
There is no better thing than teawhen asexualityinsinuates into your lifeits dull and dreary knife.Try passing a drab little whilewith a sip […]

The real me?

I think these results make me sound like a good candidate for a schoolyard ass-kicking:

Bill took the free ColorQuiz.com personality test!
“Longs for a tender and sympathetic bond and for a …”

Thanks to Brooke I ended up at Purgatorian and saw the post for FFF #9 (Flash Fiction Friday). Well, I didn’t see it till Sunday and here’s my contribution:
“It’s raining.”
“Yes.”
“Will it stop?”
“Eventually.”
“When?”
“Dunno.”
“Shit. So why do you like this town so much? All it ever freakin’ does is rain.”
“There are places in Africa where this would […]

Arriving where we started

It has not been the best of years for quite a few people I know. I’ve been struck by how many of them have lost someone in their lives, in most cases a parent.
To some extent, I’ve had a difficult time relating to it because in my case my parents have been gone quite a […]

I’m sorry, these brains are offline

If life’s got you down, if you’re feeling despondent about your life, if you’re thinking this grey morass of humdrum day to day activity could not possibly get worse … Go for a walk.
Take public transit.
From the sidewalk, view the street.
See the people around you, look at the ones in cars, and remind yourself that, […]

Fashion, bloody fashion!

This weekend I stunned myself, my neighbours and almost everyone who knows me by finally venturing from my condo in search of new clothing.
You would think, looking at me, that I care nothing for my appearance. That I’m one of those clowns who will wear anything because … well, in the absence of pride there […]

Women as bloggers - a follow up

Yesterday, I mused about Are women better bloggers? Today, while muddling around from blog to blog, I came upon I’m not a girl, not yet a wino and what do I find?
They are organized!
- Blogs by Women
They even have a blog about blogs by women!
I thought, surely men have something like this too? But a […]

Are women better bloggers?

I’ve been visiting sites for so damn long I’ve lost track. Of course, sites come in all forms. I’m not talking about commercial sites, the Amazons and so on, but personal sites. You know, some schmo like me just tapping out his or her life for the world to take a gander at.
While not scientific […]

Disrespect

I live with it every day. Like so:

What cat, other than Gonzo, sticks out her tongue when you ask her to move? Good grief. Anyway, that’s my life …
