kill death murder horror
Let me tell you about the woman I almost killed while I was trying to get to work this morning. Driving to work in the snowstorm we have been experiencing on this fine pre-apocalyptic day was a challenge. The O-Mobile is a fine car, but in anything more than two inches of snow it steers… Read.

death by snow
I think I’ve got this figured out now: The Mayan-predicted end of time, space and dimension will begin with a record snowfall that will force us all to retreat to our houses.

It wasn’t… Read.

Teh intarwebs are back! We survived one whole week without Facebook! Without Twitter! I had to write my drivel on a typewriter! We read books! WHAT DID WE DO BEFORE WE HAD INTERNET? A new router was waiting on the front stoop last night in a plain brown box, same as they deliver porn to… Read.

chicken
I had no plan for dinner last night and no idea what I could have scrounged up from the pantry even if I’d come up with a plan at the last minute. I couldn’t even suggest a place to go eat when My Darling B posed the customary Thursday night question, “What’s for dinner?” I… Read.
