...when even though you're surrounded by people, you feel utterly alone. Ever feel like that? It's been almost 20 years since I've been without a dog in the house. Twenty. Fucking. Years. I can't even really begin to describe how it feels aside from the statement above. I miss my Moonbug, my K'Lar, my MacLeod,… Continue reading That Feeling…

My Moonbug
Most of you know that I had to euthanize Moon last Friday, June 29th, only two months before her 12th birthday. Sadly, this is my reality. The other reality is that this post may make you tear up. I'm tearing up just writing it, which is why I likely subconsciously put it off until now. What you… Continue reading My Moonbug
Birthday Wish List
"It's my birthday and I'll sing if I want to..." I've had a few people ask me what I want for my birthday. My first response is, of course, to sell LOTS of books. That's a given any day of the year, though, so I decided that since tomorrow is my birthday, I'd make a… Continue reading Birthday Wish List
Silence
Within words Within gestures Within expressions It says nothing ... Without words Without gestures Without expressions It says everything ... Between the lines All silence portrays Words left unsaid ... A picture An action A reaction ... Hidden beneath Unruly waters Into the deep abyss ... Unspoken Unbidden Forbidden ... Silence is a beacon… Continue reading Silence
Conversations with Umi – Part II
Last May, I posted Conversations with Umi, right before Umi's birthday, which is May 6th (remember that, folks). One of the conversations involved Palm Sunday (look below post), which just passed last week. Since I had a complete JinxieFail on posting about Palm Sunday being on April Fool's Day *snorts* (and I totally wouldn't have… Continue reading Conversations with Umi – Part II
Worst Wednesday
Oh, where to begin with this one . . . A lot of you wondered just what in the hell happened last Wednesday to upset me so. A few of you figured it out without my telling you. Some of you I talked to on the phone, some in messages. And others got to see… Continue reading Worst Wednesday
Focus
I know I'm not alone when I say that last week was just a fucking shitty week any way you look at it. And if you've been following my Twitter timeline, you know two-thirds of the reason my week was so shitty—two sprained feet, lots of pain. There was another reason, but I can't remember… Continue reading Focus
2012 . . . The Year of Karma?
Over the past five years, I've seen a lot of shit happen and have had a lot of shit happen to me. You may have read my posts about some of it, or this may be the first time you're hearing about it. Either way, a LOT of shit has happened, and when shit happens,… Continue reading 2012 . . . The Year of Karma?
What I Want for Christmas
Good evening! I know, this post is a tad late today. I had an appointment with the neurologist this morning, which means I stayed up all night, which also means I just woke up from a 4-hour nap. I also spent a good portion of this morning before and after my doctor appointment working on… Continue reading What I Want for Christmas
Move On, Move Forward
I've been thinking about a lot of things lately, good and bad things, stupid things, things that annoy me, and I've had several posts running through my mind about each of those things. Then, the other day, I pretty much realized something that negates it all. I'd like to share that with you today, and… Continue reading Move On, Move Forward
