T-Minus 10

This is grim. I had a grim little epiphany sometime this weekend. My grandmother Lucille (Granceil) had three children, Jimmy, Delores, and Mom. Jimmy I could post a photo of Jimmy, but you wouldn’t believe it – he was a perfect, curly- haired tow-headed boy. The photo of him as a toddler in the thirties…

The Title, Were I to Use it, Is NSFW

So, I wasn’t sure what to expect over Thanksgiving. The KC contingent (Sandy, Arzanna-fay and Arhan-fay) joined the Wonderfuls and the S_____s for the enormous turkey / dressing / cranberry / potato / pasta con broccoli / vegan tofurkey buffet. Afterward, while we were working through our various issues with flatulence (Sandy), eructation (Karen), diarrhea…

We played the run of typical office jokes (switch key caps, change settings to the Dvorak keyboard, toilet paper a cube, all the classics). They…

In Which I Actually Enjoy A Guy Movie

Usually I hate dick flicks. Stuff blows up … then there’s a fight … then a car chase … I yawn … more stuff blows up… all of which takes up twenty minutes and advances the plot by about twenty seconds. However, it seems I do like Philip K. Dick flicks, like Blade Runner, Total…

When I Was First Married

I had a wretched sinus infection today. Last week Marcia3 scored a headache-free sinus infection that made itself known when her uvula touched the back of her tongue. The headache for this one is unfazed by Sudafed, Advil, and saline spray. So of course, my initial biological reaction to pain is to have sex. (It…
