curled up where in the summer there would be sun shivering but not from winter's nip as limbs stray reaching for long gone warmth not caring that they'd be warmer tucked in curled up protected from the hazy light that will never be a sunbeam
reduce, reuse, you know…
It's that time again. Time to clean out the "Recent Drafts" section. That's just what WordPress calls them. Some of these aren't so recent so let's grab a few titles, shall we? No. Not really asking you. Just a nice transitional phrase. We're doing it. I'm pulling up titles, sharing them with you and then … Continue reading reduce, reuse, you know…

I don't know if you're aware of this or not. It could come as a total shock to you, but it's Tuesday. Yep. Tuesday. The second day of the week (if you start the week counting on Monday. Which is how I do it. Monday is the beginning of the WEEK. Sunday is the WEEKEND). … Continue reading shorts…
now that’s pressure…
I'm making potato salad. I am. I'm doing it and none of you can stop me. Mostly because I've already made the potato salad. Yeah. Stressful. Don't you get it? That it's stressful? Because it is. Because I don't make potato salad. I make a lot of things. I make a fucking lot of things … Continue reading now that’s pressure…
the snow that was not, again…
I love snow. I love snow in a way that only a girl raised in various parts of California and Texas far away from snowy places can. Let's add to that. I reside in Portland. People who don't live here might think we get snow. We don't. Every year or two we get a little … Continue reading the snow that was not, again…

I'm nearing my mid 30's and the less I eat of you the more I seem to eat of other … Continue reading dear carrots…
birds do it, bees do it, but mermaids apparently don’t…
Mermaids are sirens of the sea. Beautiful creatures that some want to posses and others want to be. 40 years ago when Starbucks became a company they had a logo oh so very different than the one they have today. It was a mermaid with tits, midriff and tail. You know. The mermaid trinity. Over … Continue reading birds do it, bees do it, but mermaids apparently don’t…
poetry time again…
words softly spoken but audible for no one to hear whispered as they appear on screen with more feeling than the clack of keys can muster beneath shaking fingers a shaking head and stillborn breaths.
examining the cheese ball…
This post was going to be called "may the cheese ball be with you..." because as I type this up I'm in bed with a bad cold snuggling with my kiddo and watching Star Wars Episode V. But Cheese Ball and Star Wars in a blog post title, frankly seems like overkill. How much goodness … Continue reading examining the cheese ball…

Okay facebook. I get that you want to keep me informed. I get that you want me to know what's going on and that when my likeness is tagged, like in a photo of me, you think I should know about it. And thank you. That's considerate of you and I do love me some … Continue reading 44 emails later…
