I like to write about life when you have a job, some kids, a fixer upper and a fatal disease.

  • do i LOOK like a doormat?

    jesus but people are clueless. does no one have feelings anymore? and don't give me that "you're too sensitive" crap…i'm just wanting consideration! normal, polite consideration for how i might feel. sometimes, human beings are just crap. and then my 'doormat' side says, "oh, but they probably just don't know they are being insensitive/rude/over the…

  • no reason in particular

    i wish there was a punctuation mark that fell somewhere in-between the exclamation point and the period. you know, one that conveyed the 'eyebrows up' expression of surprise or amusement. the exclamation point is too "oh my god!" or "yippee!" (and the multiple !!! is unforgiveable, though i too fall victim to the usage)…and the…

  • tomaaato tomahtoe

    if one more ENGLISH person corrects my ENGLISH pronunciation i am going to scream…in AMERICAN interesting thing, not a single FRENCH person has ever corrected my FRENCH pronunciation unless i asked for help….

  • lonely heart

    seriously, i really do need to meet a boy. that little italian number the other night (whether or not a certain someone thinks he was a geek..hey, geeks have incomes!) got me thinking… sorry, pervs, i'm not going to tell you WHAT i'm thinking!…

  • two done, three appointments to go

    ok, Aunt Anna, these are special just for you. pic one, not the most attractive, but i'm not used to doing teethy pics..had a hard time even finding one for this project. pic two: after this mornings work..the middle front two are done. and they hurt like the dickens. feels like i've had a mac…

  • i thought a Brazilian was a nut

    i have decided that the clean, un-marred bikini line is a feat i am incapable of achieving, a test of my womanhood and sexiness that i have failed miserably. (how did those poor indian, um, native american boys feel when they returned from the right of passage hunt empty-handed? less native american?) shave, wax, depil…

  • same shit, different country

    just got back from a big party on the Cap D'Antibes…lots of twelve year old girls in next to nothing talking to fifteen year old yachtie boys who know next to nothing. where the hell are all my peers? (especially of the opposite sex) oh, yeah right…having jobs and babies and lives. without me. thank…

  • Euro-problems

    i said awhile back (October 2002 archives) that i knew moving (again) wouldn't solve my problems, that they always come with you..they'd just become "Euro-problems". well, i was right. its not the end of the world, but i'm feeling frustrated tonight. i know i can do this art thing, and i'm loving every minute of…

  • disclaimer for previous harsh entry

    turns out i'm not a good listener. no patience for whiny bullshit. i highly recommend that everyone has a run-in with the big C by age 30, it puts some perspective on things right off. by the way, its coming up on my six month clear date….girls, have you had your SMEAR yet this year?…

  • get over it

    ok folks…there comes a time in ones life that you realize that everyone (EVERY SINGLE PERSON IN THE UNIVERSE) has/had undesirable childhood/parent/partner relationship issues….GET OVER IT…hopefully by a certain age (lets just say 28-30) you can see that A) people in Calcutta have it far worse B) you can't choose your relatives for a reason…
