Filtered: Offline Due to Illness

I've even activated my vacation email auto-responder. I have no idea what's up with me but every day brings a new variation of seemingly unrelated yuck: fever ~101, eyes that itch intensely but only while I'm lying down, one side of my head running like a faucet, severe night sweats ...

Kitties Rule, Except For That Awful Smell

Hey folks, long time no anything! I thought you might like to see a couple of pictures of the new kittens, who are 8 weeks and 1 day old. We have four, all males, and they've officially entered the cute overload stage. They do little hopping attacks and leaps, graceful ...

Things Are Definitely Moving

You know how it goes when you're trying to, for example, clean out a closet or garage or other area that's very disorganized – you make a much bigger mess before you actually create anything like order from the chaos. Yeah. That's my life for the last two months, and ...

Filtered: Pet Doubt

My heart is really breaking over giving up the animals. Aki was only here three months and really needed to find an owner who can give him a lot of attention, but he was so scared when I put him in the display cage. And I can't help but feel ...

Filtered: Changing of the Guard

Very quickly: I am swamped again, as we're getting new siding on the building and I have a magazine due in 9 days, but I wanted to touch base and tell you all some news that I've waited to tell until things actually worked out. First of all, we re-homed ...

Do You Need Positive Energy (aka Blessings), Too?

In my traditional shameless (if increasingly rare) fashion, I'm here to beg you kind people to please send positive energy or blessing my way. As so many of us are now, I'm in temporary financial crisis and will need some good luck to get through this unscathed. I am willing ...

Filtered: Fear and Loathing en Las Noches

Why am I afraid to bleed on my own blog? I fear I have been too heavy lately, and that I will drive people away. But I have been in a lot of emotional pain, and blogging is the only form of verbally processing it I know of that doesn't ...

A Break, For a Dream

My birds were being so loud for so long that I had to take an Ativan. Sheesh. Now I have headphones on so as to gain some control over what noise I'm exposed to. It reminded me of my dream this morning. The dream seemed important so I want to ...

Filtered: Insomnia Sux, and Other Complaints

I'm deeply and profoundly exhausted, snarling at my daughter and needing a vacation. I can't sleep, but I am so tired I could cry. I worked almost nonstop for several days (I lost count) getting the zine together, finally wrapping up the last bit of code in the last article ...

Bird Stories

One of my Quaker Parrots, Kiwi, said her first words a week or so ago. I was covering their cage for the night with a large sheet which has a softball-sized hole in it. They like to peek out of the hole when saying goodnight. I put the sheet on ...
