Have you ever suddenly realized that the way you saw yourself, the way you explained yourself and your actions to yourself… isn’t accurate anymore. I don’t mean you look in the mirror and think “Wow, when did I get so old?” or eat cabbage for the first time since you were force fed it asContinue reading “Color of Preference”

Alone! (well, sort of)
We are now alone. Well, sort of. There are four of us. One who fights epic battles with flies and takes up very little space…. Olive: Protector of the house! One who is tiny and makes her presence known mostly through kicks and by jumping on my bladder. Matt, Me, and Fishy makes three! But still. WeContinue reading “Alone! (well, sort of)”

How Not To BBQ
How hard can it be? I asked myself. Turns out, harder than I thought. I know I am a bit behind the curve on learning to do some things. I was 27 before I did my own taxes. I was 28 before I made my first omelet. Seriously. I still haven’t managed to cook aContinue reading “How Not To BBQ”

LONDON!
A year and a half ago, The wonderful Maifan-San (aka The Man aka Anthroslug aka my partner aka Super Sweet Boyfriend Extraordinaire) took me to Tokyo. It was amazing.

Snacking For the Sake of Art
Every now and then you get invited to do something cool simply because you happen to know the right person. This weekend, the person was David. I have known David since high school… and that story can be told some other time. Suffice it to say, we were close friends, we haven’t seen each otherContinue reading “Snacking For the Sake of Art”

Greetings! Welcome to October: month of birthdays, gatherings, costumes, candy, changes, goals, a much anticipated book debut, and much much more! First things first. As some of you know, I am occasionally active in what is sometimes called The Skeptical Movement. I don’t call it that, but others have been known to do so. IContinue reading “Skeptics, eh?”
