Operation: Organize

Alright everyone. We have reached the final frontier. Today it's time to go deep into my studio.  What it lacks in size, it makes up for in volume. I've had bags and boxes Tetris'ed in here for years, and I've just hauled everything out and now you can't see the living room anymore. Cover me, I'm goin' in...∎ 🎮 Here, let me Google that for you.....

We're overdue for a body-swap movie

Throwback Thursday: 1990

"OH DEAR GOD. Never Google yourself."  That's what I wrote under "Write a Review" on an archive site I discovered this week. On this site, someone had posted the Spring 1990 issue of our college Honors newsletter, a quarterly called Femmes d'esprit. Spring '90 was the second issue after I became the Editor. The previous editor, Stacy, had gone off to Europe on a semester abroad. While I was envious of all the girls who got to do things like that, I was thrilled to take over. And today I'm equally thrilled and mortified that this PDF has...

Chunky Gold Necklace

Please excuse the boob shot on a Saturday morning. Not tryin' to be fresh. But this is another necklace that people stop me on the street to inquire after, and they're always surprised to hear that I got it from a dude selling tchotchkes from a cart in Vegas....

Let Them Wear Buns

If you're a card-carrying feminist and you're mocking the so-called "man bun," then you can turn in your card. Right now, no feminist card if you're mocking his bun. What? Why? One more time for the bitches in the back of the room, here's the bold type. The Bold Type We will never reach true equity until men have the same access, without mockery, to feminine tropes as women do for the masculine ones. The "man bun" is just a bun, the same...

early

Doctor's Office I assumed a 6:45am alarm would be a "before work" thing. If I'd known I'd still be job-less in September, I'd have made this doc appointment for later in the day. I cropped my eye bags out of this photo. I'm not good in the morning. Not good.   ...

Throwback Thursday: 1999?

Somerville, MA This photo is on a CD labeled "Stuff from old drive" and it says "1999...?" Let's see...can I do any better pinpointing this selfie? Well, it's before the term "selfie" was coined, and that's my office in the Somerville apartment, way back when I lived with Hub. My hair was red for awhile in the 90s, but not here, though I see some reddish undertone. No, I can't narrow it down any further: 1999ish. I had a webcam. Early webcam. Sometimes...

"Lights please!"

🎅 Parents believe their kid believes  in Santa  approximately *3.7 years longer than the kid actually believes in Santa.  The kid keeps it going,  but only because they just can't bear  to ruin the fun for their parents.  This is not bad news, it's good news,  because it means they understand  the real joy of Christmas. 💟 *Not an actual statistic...

These Are Some People I Don't Understand

Brad is dead. There is no more Brad. You Named It Brad, and I Don't Know What To Do With That. Could you please not introduce me to your car? Because unless it's Greased Lightning or something similarly non-anthro, I don't want to meet him. Tell your car that I'm a warm person usually, it's just that I would be more comfortable if we remain strangers while I'm sitting in him and twiddling his knobs. I'm not judging you for naming...

I'm a Tag Sale Fiend On My Mother's Side

Hey, I found some fun stuff at a tag sale today over on Appian Way. Tag sales are like Vegas. Bring only what you are willing to spend. I brought ten bucks. Here's my haul. Left to Right: Black ribbed hat, a little beat up guitar, a top hat, a court jester ornament that's definitely getting made into a doll. Bottom left: A jeweled pewter spider, a little red glass candle holder, and a box of broken-in pastels (perfect). Tag Sale ...
