Late at night, I drink tea. And wear my grandpa sweater. I am so unhip I’m cool.
Seriously, every night - very late - I drink tea. And I’m usually wearing this sweater that is so old I no longer remember when or where I got it. (It cost about $1.95 or even […]

If an open wound had a voice it would be Bettye LaVette’s. This disc is all about the voice and the voice is all about how it feels to be alive and to love and to hurt. It’s soul music, R&B, but somehow that seems far too limiting a description.
How is it I didn’t […]

Not having posted in a few days and in my own way having dropped out of sight for a wee bit, I feel this is a time for questioning.
Fall approaches. What shall I do?
I hate the fall. I believe I suffer from S.A.D. I certainly feel grumpy once the light starts fading, […]

I usually let my laptop shuffle through whatever it feels inclined to play but, though there’s a lot to choose from, I eventually want some new music. And so I go out and get some.
I use the term “new” very loosely, by the way. It is new to me and in some cases not even […]

The sky tossed and turned last night as if experiencing a troubled sleep. What’s to do but photograph it?
I like taking shots of wires and sky. Go figure.
The week has been busy so it seems the “to do” list just gets longer despite efforts to make it shorter. (Maybe if I did […]

No matter what I do, my place always looks like it’s been hit by a shit storm. It always looks as if frat boys have had a go at being the assholes that rest firmly entrenched in their essential natures.
My place looks like hell with a hangover.
I’m not sure why this is. But my place […]

I’ve been into the wine and traversing the Internet and realized that one of the worst things a person can do when they are in their cups is to comment on blogs. Shame compounds upon shame and there is just no end to it.
I realized that the more pie-eyed I am, the longer my comments […]

Would someone please tell me - I mean, please, tell me - what on earth was I thinking when I bought these shoes?
It occurs to me I may have had comfort in mind. But how comfortable can you be when you can’t even leave your home without debilitating self-consciousness about your freakin’ […]

I returned to work this week. That’s the only explanation I have for this post’s accompanying picture. Although I’m only a few days into it, on the whole I think I prefer vacation. I’ve just never cared for work.
My last vacation day was spent in a friend’s backyard. We encountered an itinerant cat who […]

I’ve actually been blogging yesterday and today, but since I’ve been watching movies I’ve been over on my other blog, The Burble.
For what it’s worth, I posted:
- Some regard for human frailty
and
- The little tramp and the flower girl
Of course, if you’re not into old movies these will be of no interest to you. But […]
