I’m in a wonderfully good mood today. It boggles me because insomnia and kidney pain have been my best friends all week, I’m exhausted, but happy. It’s weird. This morning I got up early and had breakfast with a good friend. We used to work together and she was laid off a few months ago. [...]

It’s just icky how many hits I get on this website from people looking for some combination of black, daughter, and sex. ick ick ick. Boy did you come to the wrong place if that’s what you’re looking for. I don’t mind your average run of the mill kink, but incest is hurtful, immoral, and [...]

It’s the end of the month at work. I put in 11 hours at the office and another 2 hours at home today. Tomorrow will be long too. Blogging will resume when number crunching stops making my brain mushy. I’m aiming for the weekend. I scheduled a dentist appt today. I’ve got a cruchy tooth [...]

I’m about to throw out an entire stack of unread magazines. My mother would consider this a sinful waste if she were still around. She’s not, but she’s still in my head. Dammit. At least I know where my magazine neuroses comes from. Mom was a depression child. When she died, my stepdad took twentysome [...]

Snow, perfectly timed to make the weekend pretty but also so I don’t have to drive to work in it on Monday YAY! Giving a good hug to a good friend and smelling his cologne on my shoulder for the rest of the day. It’s a nice reminder of the warmth that started the day. [...]

Forgive me for the rambling. I need to do some free writing to see where it takes me. There’s a lesson trying to come out and this is the only way I know how to do that… I got a call from an old friend last night. His name is Steve and he’s an artist, [...]

OK. I’ll admit it. Things really suck right now. *commence whine* My job used to be handled by 5 separate people. Through downsizing, it’s up to two of us now.
