"PRUDENCE NEVER PAYS"

Crazy cat lady? Yes. Totally. Guilty. I thought you guys would find it hilarious if I took a too-serious campy family portrait, it being my cat’s third birthday and all. Well, anyway, this is how it went. So funny. He haaates me.

"THERE IS A LIGHT THAT NEVER GOES OUT"

I know about four people who’ve been hit crossing the street. One of them, in particular, nearly bit the dust and do you know what she said was the worst part? The recovery? The six surgeries it took for her to recover? Nope. That after, with two broken legs, a concussion, half of her face [...]

"HAND IN GLOVE"

So, let’s see, where were we? Ah, Saturday, I think. Yes. Well, I’d gotten an email from Elizabeth Ellen asking me to come to her reading at Quimby’s on Saturday night, which I did. How could I not with a sweet personal invite, right? She shared the stage with Myriam Gurba and the two made [...]

"ALMA MATTERS"

Hey kids, it’s time for another Guthmantics and today’s very special guest is a a wonderful and talented woman I met and read with at the Tennessee Williams/New Orleans Literary Festival, and author of a book I absolutely fell in love with, please welcome my friend, Ms. Margaret Sartor.
When I asked her for a bio [...]

"CALIGULA WOULD HAVE BLUSHED"

Say, do me a favor– everyone click over to my friend Dondi’s blog and wish that little darlin’ a very happy birthday before you do another thing. So what if you don’t know her? She’s awesome, my friend and it’s her birthday. Reason enough. Go, go. Do it.
Now then. (smooths skirt, pats hair)
In case anyone [...]

a little unmotivated on a grey day after a late night

50 stretched-out sit-ups today. That’s about it.

"HOW SOON IS NOW?"

So! Much! Fun!… was had at The Fixx Reading Series again last night! I knew it would be a good night when, as Irish Ho and I were setting things up, a man and a young lady walked in– the girl, probably about sixteen or so, had awesome magenta hair, and such a funky style [...]

"FOUND FOUND FOUND"

This is tonight, so comb your hair, put on a clean shirt and come say hello. It’ll be fun!

Also, as an added bonus tonight, I need you to bring a few bucks with you. Why? I’ll tell you. First, we have a merch table and you can buy Charles Blackstone’s book, The Week You Weren’t [...]

two miler

Man, I set out for a long run tonight and never caught the mojo. The first part of any run sucks, but then the wind picks up and catches your sails and then you just get into a groove and go. Well, I didn’t catch my groove tonight, but I did have a lovely two-mile [...]

"ASSEMBLE THE WAYS"

So, who will I be seeing tomorrow night at The Fixx Reading Series? 7:30. There or square, sweetiepiefaces.
In other news:
Well, the blue isn’t as turquoise as I wanted it to be. I bleached the crap out of that hair, turned it nearly white-blondey and still that pretty turquoise haircolor is a subtle peacock-feather green highlight [...]
