You know all that shit I wrote earlier about making progress and whatnot? Yeah, you can throw that shit right out the window. I am constantly spiraling down my vortex of self-loathing, and I am pretty much going along for the ride. Remember the sitting of the kids I did Friday night? Yeah, well,… 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…. Continue Reading
Losing It
Goddamn it. God the fucking damn it. My NANCY SMASH! high has subsided (although I still greatly admire Madame Speaker of the House), and now, I am back to being frustrated with an issue that seems to plague me. Rather, a series of issues as they are all interrelated. I thought I could do it… Continue Reading
My 2010 Fantasy Wish List
I don’t make NY Resolutions, so this is not going to be about that. Instead, this is going to be about…well, you’ll see. As I was driving back from the airport to my house, I felt some relief to be getting away from my family and the pernicious insidiousness of Taiwanese beliefs about women, family,… Continue Reading
Losing My Body Parts One By One
I can’t feel my feet! I wish I couldn’t feel my ankles, knees, or neck. Today, my bro, my niece, and I started with a leisurely breakfast. It’s cool when it’s just the three of us. We can take our time and just talk about whatever. There is no tension there. Plus, I… Continue Reading
Flash Flickr Food Blogging
Hiya. I have been informed that people who are not on FB cannot view the photo albums I have been posting with each entry. I have been bugging my bro to upload the pics to Flickr, and he has finally done just that. Today, I am linking to the food photo set. It does not… Continue Reading
Just Like Old Times
Today was a pretty damn good day for the most part. Got up around six-thirty and had time to myself until nine. I’ve always been a solitary kind of person, but I didn’t fully realize how much I needed my alone time until I got so much of it taken away from me. Now that… Continue Reading
I KNOW I’m Fucking Fat!
So. I went to the family dinner tonight (mini, mom’s side). It was at an Italian-like food place named Morita’s. Don’t ask because I don’t know why an Italian place has a Japanese name. Anyway, I was pretty much defeated by the rest of the day, so I just went (I had originally told my… Continue Reading
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
