It’s a typical San Diego Sunday: mid-70′s, light breeze, strains of music floating through the neighborhood. The curtains are all drawn back and the house is getting a nice airing out. There’s been a light winter cleaning – sorted out a drawer of canned goods, cleaned off the random debris on top of the fridge [...]

Cuff! Of! Doooom!
Hey there! Hi. It’s Friday. What’s up with you? Doing good? Okay, that’s cool. Oh, what’s that? On my ear? Nothing. Wait, my *other* ear? Oh. Oh that’s just MY AWESOME OCTO-EARCUFF OF DOOM. He’s magic. No biggie. So if anybody wants to buy me an Octopus Ring (also from Marty Magic) to make me [...]

Phasing It In Slowly
Hey! So. It’s been an interesting week. First off can I just say I looked at my blog and saw that it said 397 FOLLOWERS, which I have to research because…. holy crap, where did that come from?!?! Maybe it’s a glitch. Not sure. But if it’s true… thank you!!! I chopped some more hair [...]

There Are Other Worlds Than These
It all started with a box of books. My mom shipped a care package to me in late winter 2011. Despite having just turned the corner into 2012, it would be an injustice to pretend that we are still in the past year. It’s difficult to really grasp that, since both I and the husband [...]
