So today was a horrible day. First of all, a friend of mine brought me an old book of his and told me that he saw it on his shelf and thought of me. It’s a book about Native American women. The title is Mankiller. This comes after a discussion this summer where I was [...]

My projects from work are exceedingly mind-numbing. For example, right now I’m supposed to be updating a tabulation sheet, which has to rival Moby Dick in size. I am not exaggerating. I’ve wisely decided to put it off. I described something as “ghetto” to one of my co-workers (I am, undoubtedly, [...]

Too tired to be witty. But still amused. Fire alarm says “Woop woop!”

I still get inexplicably gloomy sometimes around this time of the year. Not the constant, unbearable pervasive sadness that used to follow me around, but rather a small, condensed form of unsettled uncomfortableness that manifests itself as annoyance or withdrawal, sometimes. Just at this time of year, typically. How weird is it [...]

I am an idiot for varying reasons, the two most glaring being that self-deprecation is horribly tacky, but more importantly, I’m full of what feels like green bile set in my stomach, heart, throat, and head and am blogging when I should be hurrying up and finishing a paper for class so I can return [...]

I’ve been having a series of weird dreams lately, all consisting of needing to evacuate to avoid an impeding disaster, natural or otherwise. Last night I strapped my essential belongings to my back and camped in a park in preparation of an oncoming tornado of biblical proportions. Those who stayed in stable shelter [...]

Yesterday I went to a departmental picnic for work. It was fun. I actually stayed for a couple of hours. Usually I just make an appearance and then leave because I am completely unsociable. I’ve been trying to be more friendly. Anyway, yesterday at the picnic I noticed that I am no longer one of [...]

I’ve been bad about not blogging lately, probably as a result of Working, Plurking, and Dot. Oops. Luckily now we’ve gathered others to the website to alleviate some of our guilt about laziness in posting.
If you’re not in Lubbock, you may not be aware of the mosquito absurdity taking place here. I’m convinced it’s one [...]

If I don’t tell someone about this I am going to explode. So I’m telling you. I think that every few years of my life since I graduated high school something has happened to turn my world upside down. First of all, two years after I graduated I got married. Then two years later I [...]
