Nipponese Chicken Mandarin

Thursday, August 10th, 2006

Marcus and I made this for dinner tonight. It's very, very delicious, but I don't know the origin of the recipe. There are some in my family that are not to be shared with others (my dad's spaghetti sauce recipe, for one. I'm not even sure he ...

My Feet Hurt

Thursday, April 27th, 2006

Why do my feet hurt, you ask? Well, probably because I wore three inch heels for most of the day (or at least a significantly larger portion of the day than I am used to). And why would I do a silly thing like that? Considering that ...

The Passion of the Pisces

Saturday, April 22nd, 2006

I've been thinkng a lot about something my mother and I talked about while I was out visiting my family. My mother is a very strong, passionate Leo woman. She is married to a very strong, passionate Aries man. The "discussions" they have get heated and fiery and passionate. ...

I want or I don’t want, which is it?

Wednesday, April 12th, 2006

I'm not happy. I didn't realize how not-happy I was (or even THAT I was) until I visited with my parents. I hope it's something that I can fix. Maybe I need to be closer to my family. Maybe I just need to set aside an ...

my back hurts

Saturday, March 11th, 2006

From about the level of the tips of my shoulder blades down to my iliac crests. Also in the front from my diaphragm to the crease my belly makes with my lap. I can't tell if they're related, though. I talked to my mom on the phone tonight. ...

happy birthday to me!

Tuesday, March 7th, 2006

Marcus and I had a nice quiet birthday on Sunday. We went rollerskating and then we bought ourselves a bread machine. Now we have delicious fresh bread all the time. My mother decided that her birthday present to me and birthday present to my father is to fly me ...

time to go retro

Saturday, March 4th, 2006

Want to buy me this? It's just that the black case makes me all wiggly inside, thinking about my AE-1 sans film. I've never been much of a picture taker, because I've spent my life admonished for wasting film and filmisexpensivedonchyaknow? But I want to change that. I ...

i’m too lazy for my shirt

Wednesday, February 22nd, 2006

I got a card in the mail from Blockbuster the other day, telling me to give them their damn game back. I'd already brought the game back, so I was going to throw it out, when I saw that there was a survey on the back. It listed ten movies, ...

Talk about anarchy

Monday, February 20th, 2006

The last time I was chatting with my sister, she went away to make dinner, and my mom hopped on. She admonished me for my "TheDairyQueer" screenname, so, for her, I made a new one today. I was just going to use "dianarchy", but AOL said it was already ...

squishy squishy

Tuesday, February 14th, 2006

Marcus is the most spoilish. He is the botulism toxin for the dented can of my heart. When I got home from work, he had designed a treasure hunt for me. It led me around various spots around the house that have special meaning for us, and each clue ...

oh

Wednesday, January 25th, 2006

And I found out yesterday that my grandfather died last month. My mom only found out on Monday, when some legal paperwork got mailed to her. I don't even know how to react to this. My family is so fucked up. I just hope that at some point, ...

don’t think i didn’t notice

Thursday, September 15th, 2005

8/20/05 - My father, in all his attemps to be protective, humorous and charming, refers to Marcus as "The Bum". He's done this for several months now. 9/1/05 - My father, calling to say he missed seeing me on our trip, decides that due to Momma's review, Marc is deserving ...

Beady Babies

Saturday, September 10th, 2005

I think Alix would have an orgasm just clicking there.

oh baby

Thursday, September 1st, 2005

d to Momma 9:25 am (10 hours ago) I had a dream last night that was SO vivid, and you were pregnant. Dad was actually pretty cool about it, too, but I think that was the tipoff that I was only dreaming. -- Momma to me 1:46 pm (6 hours ago) Weird! ...
