Keep smiling. It makes them wonder what you're up to.

Out of used furniture I made a tree. ~ Anne Sexton

i checked for his breathing while they called 911

March 2, 2012
Last night was a night of many firsts all of which have blended and churned in the part of my stomach that violently wants to vomit everything away, but can't because I haven't eaten anything since Friday morning. It's that nagging weight that cycles between my gag reflex and my stomach that...

  • My crusade to prove Neville was the Chosen One.
    July 13, 2011
    Seriously? How am  I the in the minority here to realize that Neville Longbottom is one of the most mistreated, underappreciated, underdeveloped characters of all popular fiction? Let's face it. Harry Potter was a whiny bitch. His father was a bullying asshat that inexplicably gets the girl ...

  • WHY ARE FROGS SO DIFFICULT
    May 23, 2011
    You might remember THIS entry: my first attempt at frogs. (Although that drawing is originally from March 2009). Well, I decided, enough is enough. I'm 21. I should be able to draw a frog that doesn't look like a scary robot or lizard hybrid. So at work I asked Elaine to draw a frog for me,&...

  • Left with life’s scraps.
    May 5, 2011
    I've started my venture into blackout poetry. It's a lot harder that it initially sounds. My mother: "How is that poetry, just taking words?" Me: "Poetry is words. I'm just choosing someone else's words and putting them back together my way." My mother: ".....&q...

  • my personality is setting me up to be life’s bitch
    April 29, 2011
    The new thing in child rearing is to do away with telling kids "good job". Good Job conditions a child to search for approval and it discourages them in trying something that might get less praise. It creates "praise junkies". A study took two groups of students and gave them ...

  • real life is parching.
    April 27, 2011
    As much bitching that we all like to do about school, it does have something going for it: opportunity. It asks (or should ask) us to be creative. Write a paper. Learn. Draw. Do a project. Join a science fair, a school play, a garden club. Mostly, if we're willing, it keeps us thinking and…
