I’ve been in ol’ New York for almost six years now, so I can be forgiven for assuming that I’ve seen almost everything she has to offer at least once. This week, however, I learned that this wasn’t true. I saw two things I’ve never seen before, and I choose to believe that this isContinue reading “Two Things: Crack in My Face, and the Nicest Bus Driver Ever”

Officially Out of Shape
I am out of shape, and here’s how I know: I was tired today, after walking a mile and a half. Which is how long it takes me to get from the faraway subway to my house. I started taking the farther train, BTW, because I couldn’t face the gym and I figured I shouldContinue reading “Officially Out of Shape”
The Complicated Grooming Regimen of Sgt. Lucky
Today I remembered something I hadn’t thought of in a long time, and because it’s a lazy Sunday and I don’t want to do any real work, I’ll tell you about it. Shortly after Sgt. Lucky and I moved in together, we were discussing our beauty regimens. Well, OK, my beauty regimen. I think thisContinue reading “The Complicated Grooming Regimen of Sgt. Lucky”
Back, Now With More Marriedness
Greetings, my neglected internet friends. I have returned to you from the wilds of Belize, where I drank my weight in rum-based beverages and also proved that I can both kayak and snorkle without injuring myself in some fantastically stupid way. I’m just as surprised as you are. The wedding itself was lovely. When weContinue reading “Back, Now With More Marriedness”
The Lucky Channel
Sgt Lucky: (Looking at my foot.) Oh my God. Are you all right? Me: Yeah. It’s just my gross plantar’s wart. Remember? I made you buy the medicine for me and pretend to have the wart yourself. Just like when I wanted to read Twilight and I didn’t want to buy it so I madeContinue reading “The Lucky Channel”
I Have Also Been Doing Work
But mainly, I’ve been writing and playing Bejeweled. Seriously, that’s what I’ve been up to for the past week. This is partly because I have the flu and partly because I am a lazy, lazy woman who only likes writing little stories and playing video games. As far as the little stories go, I shouldContinue reading “I Have Also Been Doing Work”
OK, You Win

What I’ve Learned
The other day I was trying to pinpoint the real difference in my life now that I’m all coupled up and stuff. I have decided that it is this: I now pull my hair out of the shower drain after I wash my hair. This might not seem like much to you, but keep inContinue reading “What I’ve Learned”
Wheel of Dicks 2009
I swear, if Sgt Lucky ever gets tired of my pinko rhetoric and snoring, I will become a nun. Because dating? Just plain sucks. I’ve been talking to a lot of friends lately who are still on the Wheel of Dicks, and it ain’t pretty. In the old days, I’d use this space to tellContinue reading “Wheel of Dicks 2009”
Born in the ’80s
Sgt Lucky: Who’s that on your shirt? Me: David Bowie. Sgt Lucky: Oh, I thought it was Madonna. Me: …
