Yes, I deserve to be punched in the neck but don’t because I kinda have some excuses.

August 6, 2012

I know, I know.  Get off my back.  It’s been ages. Somebody punch me in the neck or something.  Where have I been?  What is wrong with me?!? I know. I’ve been…well, busy. Good busy…but busy. I’m just gonna throw out a random sampling of things that have either been going on, happening, making me [...]

LUX: Since I’m not over here, I must be over there. Vol. 07272012

July 27, 2012

I’m a total heartbreaker.  Oh, yes I am. And I don’t even have to be dating the guy.  I will just crush his world and stomp all over his dreams. I’m rattling about it over at Lux Magazine this week. I show no mercy.  Simply ruthless, I tell you. This all happened back in February so you might remember [...]

Sometimes funny just happens. But this ain’t funny.

July 24, 2012

I don’t ever really try for funny.  More than anything I just do my best to keep it real. Just keep it real as best I can. Today?  There’s no funny.  At least not for me.  There really hasn’t been since that midnight showing last week. I think I’m officially old. For the first time [...]

I didn’t die. But I could have and wanted to. However, the week ain’t over yet.

July 19, 2012

It was 1999. Or 1998.  Wait.  Maybe it was 2000. I don’t know.  I just do know I remember praying to die.  Or wishing to die.  Wait.  Maybe I did die. I don’t know. But I do know it was Christmas.  And I was in Houston.  And momma was 2 hours away.  And I was [...]

LUX: Since I’m not over here, I must be over there. Vol. 07132012

July 13, 2012

Somebody give those people over at Lux Magazine an award of some sort. Or at least a Twinkie.  Or Moon Pie.  Or a ‘like’ on Facebook.  Or magnetic pink flamingo.   They have once again publicly displayed me.  And well, that alone certainly deserves something. And they’re in Tampa Bay so really,  a pink flamingo of [...]

Apparently lots of hair, ink and skates DO go together. Who would have thought?

July 9, 2012

Because I was invited.  That’s why. When Stacie, the middle sister called and said, “Hey.  Forgot to tell you you’re invited to go with a group of us tonight to the Texas Roller Derby Girls downtown…you’re going right?” “HELLZ YEAH!” was about the only thing that came to mind.  And out of my mouth. (Well, [...]

Magic has never made me blush quite so much. And I’ve had me a little magic before, too.

July 3, 2012

All the crap below is just a random sampling of what either I said to myself in my head during Magic Mike or to my sweet friend, Nancy, who had the pleasure of sitting next to me. Lucky her, huh? (At least 73 times, Nancy and I jerked a look at each other and threw [...]

LUX: Since I’m not over here, I must be over there. Vol. 06292012

June 29, 2012

I kinda thought adding “Vol.” to the title made it sound a little encyclopedia-ish-y. (Certainly not that I thought any ‘volume’ needed to be added to anything I do.  Or say.) And I am quite sure right here is where most of you come to find life’s answers. (I know.  Even I can’t keep a [...]

I felt old. I felt young. I saw Tom Cruise’s nipples. All in the same 2 hours.

June 21, 2012

“Oh, my GOD!  You will go to the movies alone??”  Totally by yourself??” More than once I’ve heard that crap when I say I don’t mind going to the movies alone. That reaction comes with the same disbelief as if I just said I’ve got a rash with burn. (Or a date.) But anyway.  Yes.  I [...]

Not much to report other than lots of hoopin’ and hollerin’. And well, I might’ve grown a beard.

June 15, 2012

In all my 43 years, not once do I remember being called “low-key.” Or “subtle.” Or “tranquil.” Or “serene.” SO WHY START NOW? First.  ‘Dallas’. I literally turded on the floor when I realized JR was shot 32 YEARS AGO. (Yeah.  Turded.) (I know.  I’m a picture of class.) If anyone would have simply said, [...]
