The Last Snowfall*

Sunday morning, we’re up at the break of dawn.  An ungodly hour.  Actually, Rose got up first because she actually had to be presentable for her job.  The rest of us could just roll out of bed, throw on a t-shirt and shorts and go.  We were out of the room and on the road… Continue Reading

Homecoming*

OK.  Back to the travelogue.  After the thoroughly enjoyable Paper Raincoats (with Alex Wong and Ward the cellist, both of whom play with Vienna as well), on came Vienna.  The first thing that struck me (besides how utterly gorgeous she is, but what ugly boots) was how down-to-earth she was.  The theatre was intimate (maybe… Continue Reading

Big Gals Are Sexy, Too

Important Note:  I would like to thank Rubo for the birthday box she sent me.  I am touched by how carefully she chose the items for me.  In one case, the bracelet, she made it herself.  She included writing journals (including a wicked awesome black one), calligraphy pens, newspapers she wrote/edited, and other thoughtful gifts….

Blue Caravan*

On with my travelogue!  And yes, Alan Rickman will figure into it eventually.  I am not just pimping his name to inflate his cloud, I promise you. OK.  Saturday morning.  Soccer Boy woke me up at ungodly o’clock.  I got ready, and then I gave the puzzle to Soccer Boy so he could reset it…. Continue Reading

Consider My Mind Blown

OK.  I have to share with you how my mind was blown by visiting Kel.  As is my wont, it’s going to take some time, so sit back and relax.  Yes, grab your favorite beverage as I don’t want you to get dehydrated. First, I have to give you some background on my family–specifically, my… Continue Reading

We Are Family

Welcome back, bitchez. Grab your favorite beverage, sit back and relax while I tell you about the wild goings-on that happened over the weekend. I finally got to meet my twin, Kel, in person, and boy did we have a ball. I got to lick her bunny and watch her strip her chicken! I was… Continue Reading

Late Night Grumblings

My idea of perfection is Alan Rickman, chocolate, pizza, and sex (though not necessarily all at the same time.  That could get a bit messy). I am in a down mood; I have been since my birthday, actually. First of all, I am stoked to meet Kel, her sister, and her brood.  I cannot wait… Continue Reading

HP #6, 2 Disc DVD Set

I got the 2 DVD Special Edition–note, why not just make them all 2 DVD sets?  Seriously.  I hate all this Special Edition shit–Set of the 6th Harry Potter movie.  Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.  I reviewed it here.   I started with the second DVD, the one with the special features, because we… Continue Reading

Not-So-Happy Birthday

It’s my birthday.  39th.  3 x 13.  I wrote this post last year about how I am birthday neutral after hating my birthday most of my life.  I was satisfied with being birthday neutral, and I hoped that it would continue. Well, it hasn’t.  This year, the blues hit me hard over the weekend.  I… Continue Reading

This and That and Alan Rickman, Too

I’ve been hearing mixed reviews of AIW–terribly mixed.  I am going to see it, but I’m wondering if I should wait until it’s on Netflix.  Then again, Alan Rickman, enough said.  On with the blog entry. As I was cleaning the bathroom a few days ago as part of my plan to set a schedule… Continue Reading
