There's something about the look of those stark black letters on white cotton paper being pulled from the typewriter. There's no way to duplicate it.

The indentation of the letters perfectly in … Continue reading the typewritten word…

My hair babies. My hair my hair my hair has gotten long. Like... long. It's all past my shoulders and stuff.

Not that I … Continue reading a vapid post about my hair…
derailed…
Some days don't really go the way you expect them to and despite our best efforts things get derailed. It happens with weeks, months, years and lifetimes too. It also happens with blog posts.

Further mental examination caused me to ponder what it is that I should be writing about. Not just … Continue reading nothing like a meta post to save your ass…

I know how to restart things and back things up and smash them against the wall when need be... but there are some things that I am just not equipped to handle. At all. In any way … Continue reading panic on the streets of portland…
an underlying issue
You know what we haven't talked about in a while babies? Underwear. That's right. Undies. Panties. Undergarments. They're a big deal. A really big deal. They're a fundamental part of your everyday life, whether you think about them or not. Wait, do you think about them? Is that just me? Do you have any idea … Continue reading an underlying issue
