Everything totally went right yesterday.
Apparently today is going to even things out.
I wanted to try and post something making my terrible, awful, no-good, very bad morning seem like a really hilarious series of events (even though I’ve almost cried numerous times already today), but it’s like past the point of me even wanting to joke about it. It’s just totally ridiculous...

She said, You cannot hide forever, though you may try. I’ve seen you in the kitchen, in the garden. I’ve seen the things you have sewn—certains of dawn, twilight blankets and dresses for the sisters like a garden of stars. I have heard the stories you tell. You are the one who transforms, who creates. You can go out into the world and show others. They will feel less alone because...

Obama Sighting
Obama just drove by my house and waved! I was carrying my laundry to the main house and I saw cop car after cop car after cop car going past, and I was like, ohmygosh, this totally has to be Obama, and sure enough, it was! He had his girls in the back seat with him, very friendly, smiling and waving. Even cooler looking in person!

WatchSo, I was all set to come here and write about how Robert Ballard was pretty much my new hero. He’s all about exciting kids about learning, plus he’s investigating the creepy abyss that is the ocean, then, in his closing remarks, he has to go and talk about LIVING in the ocean. Like, colonizing it.
FUCK THAT.

The experience is usually accompanied by a strong sense of familiarity and a sense of eeriness, strangeness, or weirdness. The...

Blind Item
Word on the streets of K-town is that there have been a swarm of “strong white guys” cleaning up the beach and landscaping the areas around my house…apparently someone very important is coming to town tomorrow for a little R&R before they start a very important new job.
Even though I’m feeling the sickness coming on, I plan on sitting my ass on the beach all day...

And then I felt sad because I realized that once people are broken in certain ways, they can’t ever be fixed, and this is something nobody ever tells you when you are young and it never fails to surprise you as you grow older as you see the people in your life break one by one. You wonder when your turn is going to be, or if it’s already happened.
