There are two meanings to scrappy and I qualified for both. “Made up of scraps or of odds and ends; fragmented: disconnected.” “Fond of fighting, arguing, or competing.” These are the days I’m not fit for human companionship. I put myself in time-out and […]

Hi friends. Since before the election I felt myself slipping deep into anger, despair, depression and a general heaviness.

I Danced

Right after hell froze over I felt like I had been rocketed back into my career. However, it was more like being shot out of one of those circus cannons. You know ….. they shoot a woman out of a clown cannon and she lands on a trampoline or something and keeps on bouncing. Here is […]

Since the “Blizzard of Oz” I look at thinks in terms of B.B. and A.B. Before Blizzard and After Blizzard. This blog post is in the B.B. category. Definitely B.B. I was working on it with the “B” hit. During the “B” I was busy looking for my pony so I didn’t finish it …. until […]
