In which I’m on vacation next week. This week, we upgraded the POP server at work and I’ve been busy as fuck. Next week I’m flying to California to see Mother and get my head on straight. I love getting on planes.
In which I wonder what my old age will be like. Yesterday, I read an opinion piece in the New York Times. It was a good man’s story: older, loyal, secure; then his company “restructured.” Now he’s been unemployed for years. He’s too old to get a job; he has a preexisting condition so he’s […]
In which I had a dental appointment today. Okay, so, all I wanted to do was pee the entire second hour I was in the chair. Really badly. But I couldn’t, because I was getting a fucking root canal. 1. Two and a half hours at the dentist. 2. DENTAL. Motherfucking. DAM. 3. Temporary filling: […]
In which I need a fucking root canal?! My appointment was at two o’clock. I naively expected to be out of there in about an hour, but I didn’t get back to my desk until a quarter past four. First of all, nobody told me about the smell. The drill wasn’t that loud nor did […]

In which I don’t know where to see Mother this year. The US Tour schedule just came out, and wouldn’t you know that a friend is getting married during the Seattle dates and I’ve already committed to singing at her ceremony? Meaning, of course, that if I see Mother in Seattle, I’ll have to leave […]
In which I’m feeling bitchy, so I’m going to bitch. 1.) First of all, that rain? Isn’t just rain. There’s fucking snow in it. I know this because I just rode my bike to work in it, and now I’m cold and wet and my space heater died so I’m going to stay this way […]
In which I get some bad news u guise! I have to get holes drilled in one of my teeth!!!!1! [dropcap]I[/dropcap] have never had a cavity IN MY LIFE*. I’m that one person who can say, “I have never had a filling. Ever!” (I have bad skin and have to wear glasses, not to mention […]
In which I’m so boring I did laundry AND cleaned my room AND went to bed early last night. [dropcap]L[/dropcap]ast weekend was the first annual Walla Walla Guitar Festival. It was a raging success, especially considering this was its first year; we sold out and everything! I had a fantastic time, and seriously loved having […]
