the other day
i took a blind man by the arm and led him through the subway station at rush hour without losing a beat, whispering everything to him that we approached. my friend who was with me said it was my good deed for the day and i thought that was a silly thing to say. who counts these things anymore? i realized i finally have taught myself not to. people who keep count are often the people who feel...

:) fifth ave will do the darnest of things to you
so, i was done with work and in the hustle and bustle of nyc i was attempting to track down a Best Buy to pick up the last Harry Potter dvd because i’ve been watching them and never got that one. i’ve also been feeling quite jumbled, you know. a sort of frustration i think. its most likely a spike in my brain of estrogen and it makes me feel...

: why can't everyone just eat their vitamins? →
i just got back from a walk with the pups. we went all around up to the polish hood and zig zagged around up there and then when we were a few blocks from home some guy asked me (it never fails) ”hey, are dose dawgs twins?” and i always want to say “um you do realize most dogs are born 5 or 6 at…

country clubs and ham jobs
aw man, no country clubbin for me this christmas.

pfffffft hahahaha.
i’d rather be broke and with people i love.
too bad my grandparents see this as a mental disorder.
or maybe they’d quit wasting their money
and stop going too.
but i always did find that one guy whose only job was to cut slices off of a giant ham for patrons who wanted some to be rather amusing… oh ham...

whether or not to lose a lost love?
i have recently rediscovered an old journal. my god have i had a collection of journals in my day.
as a girl, my journals would find ways of falling into black holes. i had to anchor them down from such leaps through space and time by finding creative hiding spots to park them. eventually they would wiggle themselves free though and off they would go. i was never quite sure what my...

a 99 bananas fueled reconnaissance mission
my parents never gave me a key to their house but if i got home after curfew i would find a window to climb through. here is a story of such a time, perhaps the worst.
i was perhaps 16 years old. i was at some house party of which i recall there being no cups left when i got there. to remedy such i do believe i used the cookie jar instead. there was 99 Bananas involved. i got...

what happens to stale oreos
ya know how oreos get kinda mushy when they get old? ya know, like they lose that crisp cookie-ness? when i was a kid my little brother loved oreos. my mom would buy them all the time for him. when they would get old and he wouldn’t want them anymore, they would magically disappear. wasting food in that house was not something you wanted to get caught doing or you’d be feelin it the next day if ya...

Living Out of a Suitcase in the Trunk of a Car
“take just what you need” she said and i can’t say i knew what that was, but i took a few picks; i made a few choices not sure of what home is, let alone where. five different bras and a week’s worth of underwear. my charger was buried, my toothbrush MIA. the socks don’t match and the deodorant almost run dry. one macbook. two cameras, a bundle of cords, and an iPhone for my pocket. the dogs are...

fucking uterus can suck a dick
seriously, this shit feels like it wants to explode. right now my pituitary is doing all sorts of wacko shit, throwing out hormones like its complements from a drunk. then my ovaries are like its side kicks or some crap and they are like “yeah we’re gonna spit out hormones too” because apparently thats what the cool kids do in the human reproductive cycle of a woman. so then...
wedding madness : an upstate weekend tale
thurs evening: the wedding rehersal. at the church i realize the Olympus camera alone will NOT suffice. the lighting in there was that of a cave and my fancy camera was freaking out too much to take decent head-to-toe shots. portraits and large scale were great, but i couldn’t nail the other shots no matter how much i fucked with settings of all sorts. i then almost cry over my dead...

$1.75 to wash, $.25/7min to dry
the other night i did my laundry. i hate doing the laundry. i have to lug my piled up dirty clothing and unmentionables a few blocks away from my apartment to a place that is run by some sort of asian family who speak in a dialect that may be beautiful if it werent overwhelmed with all the screaming while the children of the neighborhood run wild, almost confusing the average person that this...

i need water
and lots of it.
enough to float in.
enough to be vastly alone in.
i just want to float and feel my own weightlessness.
and forget about the pains and headache.
the tangible subconscious.
a nautical escape.
yes.

War: Mortality vs. Cost
According to the extensive research of Atul Gawande, there have been magnificent improvements on lethality for our soldiers at war. He states that 42% of the battle wounded of the Revolutionary War died, 30% from WWII, 25% from the Korean War, and 10% from the Iraq & Afghanistan wars. He also reports that surgical patients from the battlefield face only 4 days or less for transport...
