Extra Days

Today’s the 29. I can’t believe it’s the end of February already. “At least you got an extra day this semester,” my mom said. I’m guessing she meant “to do work.”
Because that makes so much difference.
In two weeks, I’ll be on Spring Break, and after blinking about three times, the semester will be over. I’ll [...]

Grr

The header isn’t doing what I want it to do. It almost hurts to look at.
I’ll deal with it later.

Happy Ayyam-i-Ha

With my eyebrows raised.

Adieu, Carpe Diem Girls

I miss Sherry.
With all of the hubbabaloo about the feminist paper — especially that feminist paper, I’ve been thinking about her more often than not for the past few days.
This paper, the jalepeno-cheese paper, offending people in the pizzaria while we’re talking about BDSM, submission, and feminism. This paper that caused her to crow “I [...]

Sunday Something

I was going to write about spirituality today. I was going to write about my “Keys to the Kingdom” class and the impact its commitment has had on me. I was write as smoothly as I’d ever written, connecting my kitty commitment to self-commitment to spiritual commitment to whatever-commitment.
But I can’t. I’m too excited. In [...]

Monkey Killer

So it’s 2:04 am, and I finished my second draft. I’m 4 whole hours early.
It’s powerful, I think, much more powerful this time around, but I don’t think I’ll be able to enter it into competition because it has lyrics in it.
I’m not sure how that works. I could take them out, but the way [...]

Oh Cymbaline

It’s a little too soon to say. Er. Okay, so it’s so-very-too-soon to say, considering I haven’t read any of the play yet.
But I sniff potential. Cymbaline might be my all-time favorite Shakespeare play yet, judging by the article “Misperception in Cymabline” by Cynthia Lewis.
The article ends thusly:
No play appears sloppier at first, [...]

Don’t Lose It

… give it away.I heard that the other day, and it stuck with me. Don’t talk about weight as if you’re losing it. If you lose something, there’s always the chance that you’ll find it again. Talk about it like you’re giving it away, fat like second hand goods that served [...]

And Now for the Ubiquitous Penis Joke

…I’m not sure that’s what I meant to say, but it sure does sound cool.
I had my first story workshopped last week (week before that? I have no sense of time these days), and to be honest, I am really, really into this story. It’s called “Monkey Killer,” and it’s about a woman who goes [...]

Sunday Something: Weird Places

I think I’ve managed to come up with yet another temporary solution to a temporary problem. The problem is my not attending church as regularly as I’d like due to extreme fatigue by the time Sunday morning rolls around. I’d either stay awake during the space between work and church, only to fall asleep during [...]
