A crash from off the wagon

Tonight’s the night I’m stumped.

Things worth waiting for

1. The first big winter snowfall

2. Cider donuts

3. Opening up a new bottle of shampoo

Things worth waiting for

Worth their wait in gold

I’ve been thinking of things worth waiting for.

I have front burner goals for my life, but they’re nebulous. I guess they’re more like stuff in the kitchen cabinets that flows onto the counter. Then on the floor, down the hall…

They don’t fit in one place.

Blame it on the fumes

Today my friend Jeremy helped me paint part of my living room.

Painting called for apartment origami, as there’s no adequately-sized place to put all the furniture that needed to be moved.

Actually, doing most anything at home in NYC involves apartment origami. I know people who store clothes in their kitchens and wash dishes in the bathtub.

One of those weeks

This last week has been busy. Lemme sum it up all easy-like.

One of those weeks

Another innovative domestic solution*!

Tonight I got home and immediately prepared to sit down with the rotisserie half-chicken I’d just purchased.

It’s been a long week. And what do adults drink with their dinner after a tiring day? Wine.

And what do I want to drink with my dinner after a tiring day?

Grapefruit soda. The good Italian stuff, not Fresca.

Because I keep it classy.

‘Cause we done been fell apart

A few of you have reached out to tell me that my blog isn’t working, yet you are still trying to read it to get things back to how they used to be when you first fell in love.

Those were the good times, right? Back when my blog didn’t roll its eyes and sigh at everything you did? Back when you still went nice places?

Guys, I’m working on it. Bear with me.

Hang on just a little longer

Great news: I’m not dead, and neither is my Internet.

The Time-Warner guy came yesterday to bring wireless back into my life. Giddiness ensued. Have you ever seen a cable guy smile genuinely? It’s magical and available for a limited time only.

I have some stuff to blog. Tonight I’ll be busy with week two of my fiction class, though. So in the meantime, please enjoy the photograph my friend Mike took a few weekends ago.

Hang on just a little longer

Technical difficulties

I got home from comedy practice last week to discover that the wireless network  I’ve “borrowed” for the last year is now password-protected. So are the weaker ones I never used, including the network mysteriously called “GrandmotherLikesThat.”

A few days later, lemme tell you: Granddaughter Doesn’t Like This.
