hello?

Does this thing still work? I hope so. Anyway, I’ve got some insider information for you. But don’t worry. You can share it with anyone you want. This isn’t the SEC and I won’t Martha Stewart you. I’ve got a new blog. If you’re bored, curious, click-happy or suffer from any other feeling that makes [...]

Hi, kids. How’ve you been? Good. And your cousin?  The one with the thing? Good good.  Glad that healed up for her. It’s been a bit; 13 days, actually, since I packed my bags and set off to see the Wizard. Guess what: I’m still in the waiting room at the Wizard’s office.  Apparently, there [...]

off to see the Wizard

The figments of my imagination have been withering, lately. Maybe it’s that I haven’t been watering them enough. That definitely seems better than the alternatives — that there’s been some major climatic change I’ve ignored or that their soil (played in this analogy by My Right Brain) has become infertile and harsh. Or maybe I’m [...]

You, I bet it doesn’t make you feel good.  I bet you don’t even care enough to notice.  I bet you’ve simply become accustomed to the comfort of cruelty. It’s easy, right?  It’s just a dog.  It’s just a dog.  Plus, you don’t have to go out of your way.  All you have to do [...]

[Note: for purposes of this conversation, you should imagine my voice sounds like the bass dude from a mid-90s R&B boy band]1 *ringring* you (collectively): hehroh? [Wait; stop.  Cut post.  I forgot to mention I imagine you say "hello" like Scooby-Doo.  Okay.  Let's start this from the top.] *ringring* you: hehroh? me: hey. it’s Effbee. [...]

Last week, Carissa so so generously tagged me as an Honest Scrap. Wait.  Am I using “scrap” correctly?  Can I be one?  Or is it just like a shield of honesty that I hold?  I don’t know.  Let’s assume anything is possible. I tweaked the rules a little and went with ten honest things that [...]

It’s not what we are; it’s what we appear to be.  This is our currency.  This is what we exchange.  I don’t get to see whatever it is you actually are.  I don’t even really get to see the you you wear by design.  None of that has anything to do with my eyes. I’m [...]

Please don’t think too hard about that title; unless you’re laughing and can imagine Charlie quoting it as Article 9, Sec. 12, clause 4 of Bird Law or something. Then, by all means, snicker away. Your laughs, for me, are like peanuts to a hippo (the undisputed elephant of the river). The only point behind [...]

to pleat or not to pleat

It’s not really that much of a question.  It has been decided for us.  The answer is “to not.”  Or “not to.”  Whatever.  It’s early.  Moving right along. Upon getting home from happy hour last night, forgetting there were still important hours left in the day and promptly falling asleep at a time way too [...]

a not so novel idea

So I’m writing a novel. No, not really.  I lie for a hobby. I’d love to be a novelist.  But remember what Mrs. Lieberman wrote in my progress report in 3rd grade: I take pride in a job well done.  So I wouldn’t want to just write a book.  I’d want to be the next [...]
