The Burglar Song
The Burglar FrogTaken July 29, 2009 with Canon PowerShot A550 Ruby has this motion sensor frog ornament in her breezeway. I don’t like the thing, because I forget that it’s there, and every time I go to visit her it croaks at me and scares the shit out of me. Every single time. I once […]
The Loudest Man I Ever Slept With…
Insomnia by Cat I took this video in May, when Sheikh was still sleeping above my head. Not very long ago, he was his usual fat and fluffy self, but then became boney and light as air in a few short weeks. He eventually stopped eating altogether. He hid out most of the time, and […]

My Mom is a Biker-Chick…
I drove down to Teeny-Tiny Town today, having had no sleep since… well, I’m not certain when, but I’ve been writing – really writing – for real writing, so No Sleep Disease isn’t exactly a bad thing. This time. On the way down, I saw a small plane tipped over on the four-lane median strip, […]
Hopefully, You’re Not One of the Lost Ones…
Over 60% of my visitors live in the U.S., whereas, surprisingly (at least to me, anyway), only 11% reside in my own country. What really saddens me, though, is that nearly 10% of my readers don’t have a clue where they are… Random Song-for-the-Day: “Gives You Hell” – The All-American Rejects
