Hair Gone
My hair is gone. And I’m sore. Saturday morning I thought I’d try out a more advanced yoga class. Muscles? Somehow, it hurts to cough and sneeze. I threw three bowls on Friday at pottery class and had indian food with my sweet boy. Saturday, we went out with a bunch of nice, pretty people…

Due west please
Do western people think of the east and say, Wow, the mountains through Pennsylvania and West Virginia sound beautiful! I wish I could travel out that way to see it!

Space Heaters in Summer
I love how it’s like 80 degrees outside and I have the friggin space heater on at my feet. People are sort of stupid that way. In my opinion. It’s finally nice out, so what do they do? They crank the fucking air conditioner. Stupid.

Taxes Driver
Last evening I had a tiny, Indian man do my taxes. It’s interesting how the having of a full-time job pays the taxes on my freelance work. In other words, the amount of money I’m supposed to get back from the government goes straight back to the government and I break nearly even. I was…
