The Old is New Again

Edited to Add: Day Three pictures, bitchez! So.  Today.  Bro knocked at the door this morning to ask if I wanted to go with him and my niece to grab a bun.   I’m always up for some bun-grabbin’, so I said yes.  Hey, he knocked and asked if I wanted to go.  That’s a… Continue Reading

Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes, and, the Anatomy of a Taiwanese Woman

I couldn’t sleep last night (surprise surprise).  I got up in the middle of the night to do some online stuff before trying to sleep a bit more.  When I finally got out of bed, it was eight-thirty.  To my mild surprise, no brother barging into my room.  Nothing.  Fifteen minutes later, I heard a… Continue Reading

Goddamn It, I was So Fucking Close

I almost made it through the day without snapping.  I was sofuckingclose.  Five more minutes, and I would have made it through the day without snapping at my family.  I had tucked myself pretty much away for the day, and I had made it through the family reunion dinner as best as possible, and…. I… Continue Reading

One Hour

I leave for my bro’s in an hour.  My throat is tight, and I’ve forgotten how to breathe.  I will get in touch when I can.  Hope everybody else is having a good holiday season.

The Thread, It is Open

I’m packed except what can’t be packed until tomorrow morning.  I have my cell phone unlocked for international calls.  I have my toiletries and earrings packed.  Oh.  Forgot the feminine protection in case.  Will have to toss that in.  And one more pair of shoes.  I got all the clothes packed in approximately half an… Continue Reading

Worst Daughter in the World

My parents called tonight.  I considered not answering, but I decided to bite the bullet and be a woman about it.  I picked up when I heard my mom’s voice.  She immediately started saying how she and my father are so excited about us going (my bro, my niece, and me).  Then she paused and… Continue Reading

Alex Fucking Rocks

Alex fucking rocks.  He found a totally gorgeous version of my favorite song as done by the Dublin Gospel Choir.  It gave me chills. And, he also linked this very cute takeoff of Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody.  The video is crap, but the song is worth a listen. Merry Xmas.

Two Days

I can’t do it.  I can’t go.  I am listening to Apocalyptica (from the entry below), and I am freaking the fuck out.  Not only am I thinking about all the things I need to do before I go (clean, laundry, pack, freak the fuck out more); I am thinking about the actual trip. I… Continue Reading

New Favorite Version

Courtesy of Alex in the comments for the previous post.  A punk version of my favorite Christmas song. LOVE it.  Thanks, Alex. One more.  Apocalyptica.  It’s gorgeous.

Merry Xmas, Bitchez!

All right.  You all know that I am not a religious person in the least or at all holiday-inclined.  My crazy twin, Kel, has been singing carols on my VM, usually with her own lyrics.  She is cracking me the fuck up, and that’s not easy to do with Christmas shit. I don’t know when… Continue Reading
