Well, y’all, this is more or less what I’ve looked at all day long. It’s just been me and Fay, or maybe Fay’s bitchy little sister, not sure which, flirting for hours and hours along Highway 64. Sunshine, rain, sunshine, rain. Then mostly rain. And while I would have perhaps preferred a blue afternoon sky filled with nothing but those overweight clouds we enjoyed in abundance back in June, I can’t really complain about the…
My cousin Jay: Man, they all had some pretty handwriting.
I’ll tell you how I know I’m getting old. Sunday night I spent some quality time with a magnum of pinot grigio and several episodes of My So-Called Life in the company of some of the funniest (and silliest-dressed) people I’ve ever met. There were rules. There were amendments. There was plaid and impossibly tall combat boots. There was angst. And I remembered how when that show aired, Jordan Catalano was the hotness. And yes,…
This is my oldest friend, Palm Tree. Tonight, we’ve been conducting what may be the world’s longest ongoing chat/Scramble match/conversation, involving Orc blood, bitch-goblins, Stadium Pals, grumpy exes, astrology, vibrators, and so much more, often in misspelled allcaps. And I have laughed my ass off the whole time. Heavy guffaws, my head thrown back to my shoulders. All without uttering a single word, since she’s hours and hours away, in Buffalo, NY, a whimsical place…
My vacation starts in just a little more than two days. I’m doing mental fist pumps right now just thinking about it. I suppose I could do actual fist pumps, but I rarely have the gumption to follow through on a good fist pump once I’ve started it. They’re always better in theory, or when other people do them. That’s my thinking, at least. This vacation should be pretty interesting, I think. I’m taking it…
Well, butter my biscuit and call me a clogged artery! Someecards.com now lets you make your own cards. Has this feature always been available? Because I just noticed it. Back when I made these things, I just aped the design and used whatever weird clipart I could find by Googling. I felt a marked sense of accomplishment cobbling those cards together, but the lazy part of me (roughly 94 percent of me) appreciates Someecards taking…
This morning I find myself awake freakishly early (7 for me is like 3 a.m. to most normal people especially when I’ve been out late the night before; it’s just insane), the limits of my itch tolerance being pushed by the 49 mosquito bites I procured over the weekend. I am not exaggerating; I just counted. Sloppily; concentrating on each bite long enough was painful because bites start to itch once they remember that they…
The turnout at the Elvis vigil was pretty abysmal this year. There was a decent number of people walking the tribute line, but when we got there after midnight, there were just three or four shrines left, and that was it. The rain surely knocked a lot of people out of coming or, if they did come, sticking around very long. But that shower sure did clear the way for some nice outdoor boozin’ weather…
