When daydreams become nightmares. White walls surround my office workspace that gives way to a gaping hole, opening to a corridor. If I turn 360 degrees in my chair, I see nothing but a wall calendar that is always a month behind. To the right of my office, lies a faux reception area with no… Continue reading

A 100-Post Milestone or a Blogging Century.

I got sick while watching Hannity on Fox. Really!
Sick as a dog, while the dogs played. I’ll get back to Sean Hannity later. I didn’t post yesterday because I spent most of the afternoon situated within sprinting distance of a toilet. God’s way of getting back at me for posting the previous toilet piece. As you may or may not know, I am… Continue reading
My mutt, Jenny, connoisseur of crap.
Not to be confused with Sado, although her teeth are rather sharp. Things my dog has eaten or has attempted to eat: • 10 Pillows and counting • 2 Meat loafs • A frozen chicken breast • 3 sneakers (each from a different pair) • 1 water shoe • 4 slippers (each from… Continue reading

Cook’s Crypt: The cooking will kill you, unless the food gets you first
Food Fright For me, the kitchen is a scary place with sharp, jagged knives, fire-breathing stove top burners, and a refrigerator door that beeps incessantly when open, driving the most rational person insane. Even the sink is a slippery slope with a maniacal soap spout that kills innocent bacteria spores frolicking in an ocean of… Continue reading
Off on a Head Trip . . .
Be back in a day or two, as soon as I can find a way through the clouds.
Word de jour: Leaves or that which has left the trees
They’re everywhere http://www.flickr.com/photos/mmmazzoni/ / CC BY-NC-SA 2.0 . . . on roofs, in gutters, on driveways, on lawns hiding dog poop. In the fall, a poop-finding expedition can be quite hazardous to your shoes, as well as your olfactory hardware. In a shoe-to-poop situation, having deciduous leaf wipes within reach can save your sole…. Continue reading
Anyone for a Perimenopausal Cocktail? – Dark rum with a hot estrogen blend
These are the dark days, followed by even darker nights. Maybe I should remove the lens shields from my rose-colored glasses. Damn it! I’m moody. This gloomy wet weather and gray drippy sky doesn’t help. I want to be five years old again and find a mud puddle to jump in and ruin my new black patent leather shoes…. Continue reading
