In my last post, I mentioned the piles of stuff I’ve had to deal with lately. Here are photos of the state of my front room, taken a couple of days ago. I finally got up the gumption to straighten up the room. I took down the tree, organized the ornaments, and wound the lights… Continue Reading

Let’s Go to the Snow!
Gryphon immediately began to wail the moment his hands touched the snow. I guess he hadn’t been prepared for its cold sting on his soft baby skin. My dad and I couldn’t help but laugh at this as I brushed the snow dust off of Gryphy’s icy little hands and slipped a pair of socks, the makeshift mittens I’d brought, onto them. As you can see from the photos, we don’t own much gear to properly outfit us for snowy environments.… Continue Reading

My Gradual Recovery! (or, Keep Off the Gluten)
A dear friend recently brought over one of those green bottled beverages that resemble pond scum. Once I got past the way it looked, I discovered that I loved it. I wanted to marry it. But since I am already married, I at least wanted to have it in my life on a regular basis.… Continue Reading

Christmas: A Simple Explanation
We shall be the gracious hosts of our family’s Christmas day and dinner this year. Yipee. Actually, I am very happy to provide a venue, even if our white-walled, ugly vinyl-floored, seating-deprived rental is a shitty one. I don’t really care, as long as my family has a place to gather and share in the… Continue Reading
