Friendly reminder: NaCoLeavMo begins today.
The what you say? That’s not a word. Did she make that sh*t up? I didn’t, but Mel at Stirrup Queens and Sperm Palace Jesters did.

Ah Anne, I’ve been thinking about you a lot lately. Probably because this show is currently the reason I look forward to the ends of my weekends, my Sunday nights.
Today is a memorable day for you, Lady Anne. After a brief marriage and far too many miscarriages and missed chances to provide your husband a […]

Tomorrow is Mother’s Day.
Yes, thank you, Captain Obvious.

I am sitting on my apartment’s back porch (essentially a perch a little larger than a fire escape) typing this as quietly as I can. I think I may be witnessing the miracle of life just a few feet away from me.

The Kentucky Derby is an event that always gets me emotionally. Even if I know none of the back stories, even if the first time I see a horse is when its bursting from the gates, watching it push through to the finish line and then seeing the joy rushing out from its owners, its […]
