How long has it been since I sat down and committed to... 23 June 20129206.23 How long has it been since I sat down and committed to paper from so very volatile memory the names of those I’ve liked? Never, you say? Good. I woke up this morning with strange visions and Elvis’s Burning Love washing over. So here I go. They’ll be arranged in chronological order, so please bear with the sloppiness. 2nd Grade (K-1st, I was 6 and 7, […]

Geesh. We had to go to the store twice today; y'see, the alarm sounded just after we left the first time, which was after Dad was dropped off at SFCC and we effected a car switch in order that we could offload all the grocer […]

I’ve just gotta tell you about the dream I just... 21 June 20129206.21 I’ve just gotta tell you about the dream I just had. I was back in school (oh, the horrors!), and the most strange thing of all was the fact that I was wearing Rollerblades, but I was getting around pretty good without them. It was fourth period, and I’d been gone for some time, as there were many books that I needed to turn in. Mrs. McDermott gave m […]

And even if YOU didn’t like it, I do. The Silence... 20 June 20129206.20 And even if YOU didn’t like it, I do. The Silence of the Lambs actually does justice to the book. Of course, what that generally means is that there was much greatness in the book to begin with … I spent this, the longest day of the year, in the store. And so now you tell me that Orion Pictures is bankrupt? It’s probably the Media’s fault. Okay. Ther […]

Tomorrow’s the longest day of the year, and besides wasting it on/in the store, I have to be faced with the conclusion that everything merely goes downhill from there; the days will only get shorter until late December. Yeesh. The entire year (it seems) has been spent building up for the climax of tomorrow, and it se […]

I really shouldn’t be feeling this way (but I am, and there’s little I can do about it). Oy vey, indeed. Well, today the really big news (I guess) is that we went to the Wu’s after closing the store; there, not only did we watch a movie – Edward Scissor […]

Once again, I find myself in the unenviable position of having to catch up; I still need to start/finish up these damned thank-yous. Well, now that I’m finally through all that (except for addressing the envelopes) I guess I can start to really write. Sure. Was there any meat to this day? So far, nope. Please please meoh yeahLi […]

Y'do know that I thought that all of this is/was going to stop as soon as Lawrence went off to college, but the thing is that, as before, I seem to be caught in the crossfire. I guess that all of these difficulties are life’s little ways of telling us that yes, we still are tied down by these earthly bonds. The whole idea b […]

I still need to finish up with these thank-you notes, though. At the very least, I got to Rollerblade today, even if, coming back from the parking lot, I was unable to brake effectively and so I lost control […]

Thunderous weather, ponderous doings. It’s really been a quiet day thus far. And you do know that Paul (my man) McCartney will be fifty on the 18th – that’s what – Thursday. Do you want to be a paperback writer? It does sound like fun. […]

Hmmm, just spoke to Spouse, who’s been doing the shopping today, and she tells me she’s bringing home some frozen yogurt. I am considerably less excited about that now that I have read this entry.

If there’s one thing the Shrek movies have taught me ti’s that you are what you eat, ergo ogres are grubs and eyeballs. Wait, that came out wrong. Ogres are like onions — they’re stinky and they make you cry. Have fun with the frozen tear-inducing trats!
