I was led to believe there would be punch and pie. I’m not the only one. I was led to believe there would be punch and pie, and not just for those who showed up, because ultimately, everyone would show up in the sense that they were able. I was led to believe that people had […]
Category: Intentionally Paving the Road to Hell
Four years ago I saw a person with a bumpersticker that said “Hindsight 2020” and I thought, yeah, pretty much. I also remember the first Trump/Pence bumpersticker I saw on a car. It was parked a few cars down from us at the parking garage in Chinatown. We were there for the Taiwan 10/10 day […]
Nothing like a big face full of pollen to make you rethink how cool those cherry blossoms are… Allergies have always been my hell to bear, because I am the sort of person who found out that Easter lilies make me violently, hit the floor ill when I walked into the library one spring day […]
It was funny when we were buying the house because… well, nothing was funny because I really didn’t want to move, so I was a fucking ray of sunshine about it really. But it came to pass that I found two streets that seemed to rarely have houses go up for sale (these streets connect) […]

Whenever I open my browser it shows me the recent links (so yeah, Chrome, I know) and I feel like if I keep the link to this up at the top, I will see that fucker every time I go on to do something else and feel guilt and keep updating. On the one hand, […]
If you’re looking at the title of this post and think “Holy shit, that escalated quickly…” yeah, well, life comes at you fast. Heh heh heh. This is how my brain works now. I don’t know as it always did. Probably. I think I had more fucks to give about hiding the fact back in […]
I know, that’s not the saying, right? Hear me out… Being resistant to something is not a guarantee. I think the only exception to this is… remember the old Saturn sedans? Like many people of a certain age, this was the first new car Paul and I bought. It was the first car we owned […]
I had something else I was going to say today, and if I manage to remember what exactly it was, maybe I’ll start to put it down. Our oldest pug, Walt, has seizures. Not horrible ones, like our first peke, Monster, did… they’re subtle as they happen, but they result in his clearly not being […]
