Other dimensions fascinate me. I admit to believing in the possibility that perhaps we live parallel lives. One of us is on this plane, living according to the decisions we made throughout our life, and our doppelganger is somewhere else entirely, a product of the choices we might have made, but didn’t. Rather, I’m not…Continue Reading

The Courage Campaign
Invalidate Prop 8! Please go over to Blog This Mom’s! blog and read about Cheri’s friends. They are one of many, many families and hundreds of reasons why Prop 8 is completely bogus.
Butt, Of Course
(The man on the right is the reason I think butts are funny.) Toots: My name is Iliana. Booger: My name is Iliana. Toots: I’M Iliana. Booger: No, I’M Iliana! Toots: I thought of it first! You didn’t even know Iliana could be a name! Booger: Yes, I…Continue Reading
Our Song
This happened so fast, every last bit (it started when?) and now you’re dying, you are dying. A Saturday night and it comes down to this: a cough, rattled breath, and love you don’t hear. We’re next to you, we circle you, we avoid you, we sleep on the floor to be near. Because you…Continue Reading
PROMPTuesday #42: Remember When?
Music — such lyrical salve. My cell nuclei thrums to beautiful, raw words set to pounding — or rolling — melody, and my white light positively beams at live shows, where I sit somewhere close to the amplifier, each piece of skin, bone, plasma, pulsing, exploding. I bear witness to a singer’s true face, soul…Continue Reading
What I Like About You
Do you have one of those friends who go on and on about something — the same thing — over and over and over until you just want to stick them in a hole and fill it with dirt? Just shovel ’em over and release them only when they promise to shut up about the…Continue Reading
Funky Town
I’ve got a great idea. Not only do I think it’d be an interesting social experiment, but I also believe it’d make a lot of people happy. In fact, that’s my idea’s first purpose: make happier people. My idea’s second purpose(s) are to cure cancer, terrorism, and obesity. Here’s what I’m thinking: I want…Continue Reading
Love this Website
Mmm, mmm, THIS is delicious goodness.
What Came Next
It may interest you to know that my period came today. And this is especially riveting because I am happy about it. Happy. Happy! Do you know what that means? My dark descent into depression is reversed. Why, I feel positively alive. And no longer desirous of wading into the San Diego Bay. Despite…Continue Reading
PROMPTuesday #41: Mashed Potatoes
This week (all exhausting day-and-a-half of it) has been rife with ups and downs, bumps and glitches, despair and redemption, so I’m making this PROMPTuesday akin to comfort food. That means I’m returning to a traditional prompty set-up, where I issue a situation and a word and you go to writer town. Yes sir, I…Continue Reading
Am I Alone Here
I’ve pretty much resisted writing what I’m about to post, because I don’t want to bring anyone down, but I’ve got to tell you, I’m having a very difficult time. Maybe as some of you know, when you are low, it’s not so easy to blog because you worry about your readers’ reactions or that…Continue Reading
