He deserves to live on whatever the opposite of Themyscira is.

Did anyone see Perez Hilton “apologize” to Mischa Barton on The Hills reboot? It very quickly turned into “why the fuck aren’t you accepting my apology you fucking bitch” and it was not surprising.

Your fellow goddess welcomes you to the pantheon!

Shelter Cat Update!

Not gonna lie, but the whole play thing with an audience kind of freaks me out. I have been so paranoid about getting sick, I haven’t been around anyone really in almost a year (which is also b/c all my friends live far away... yes it sucks). But I get it, and I’m jealous, really. I’m in the arts too, though it’s a…

I hope summer is coming. We got 10+ inches in Southern OH this week and that hasn’t happened in a decade plus 😬

What have you made?? I didn’t get up to anything too picture worthy this week. I made a quiche, which I think you really need to be a professional food photographer to make eggs dishes look good, but the method was very interesting. You mix one of the eggs with some flour, mix until smooth, then mix in the rest of…

Where I was living, in Pennsylvania, is getting hammered this year by snow. One of the reasons I moved to Central America was indeed better weather. Every winter I felt colder than the previous year.

Tomorrow is my 40th ish birthday. Not quite feeling fabulous but proud I’ve been sticking to getting in shape the past 5 weeks. The weight isn’t quite coming off yet BUT I feel more toned and shapely. Plus things are starting to fit better. So once this birthday weekend is over I’m moving on to the next stage of…

This COVID vaccine situation is MADNESS and it’s making me angrier than I already was. So many people I know, who work from home, who can sit their assess in their non-covid-y homes for as long as they want to, have gotten vaccines. Meanwhile, my 70 year old parents, and my immunocompromised, sees hundreds of people…

My ex got me a toaster. And a loaf of bread, and some eggs, and a pack of bacon.

My sweetest story is not from a girlfriend or a boyfriend, but rather just from a very kind man.

My best Valentine’s Day is inspiring my upcoming Valentine’s Day. When I was a kid my sister and I would spend literally every single Saturday night over at the same friend’s house. Said friend was the oldest of four, in a family led by a single mother (much like my own). I have this very distinct memory of one…

I recently broke up with my partner of 5+ years after coming to the realization (or, as I also look at it, finally accepting) that I am gay.

I am now living back at my mothers house, which while isn’t ideal in the grand life plan, did come at a good time during a pandemic where I find myself privileged to have a secure…

I regained hope when I ducked into my local liquor store and heard two grisly biker dudes talking about getting beer for their Superbowl party. The shop owner asked where they were watching and they barked “outside of course, not safe to do anything inside.” Can't guarantee they're planning a safe outdoor gathering…

I’ve had mock mojitos that were nice—with mint, lime, sugar, though I guess they had sparkling water, which has the burping problem. But with still water it could be fine, at least. I don’t know if fresh lime is workable, but even a splash of lime or lemon juice seems acceptable to me. I did theater in high…

What play is it? Also, good for you doing backstage! I knew too many actors who were snots about that but it’s essential stuff.

I’m also getting cola - brown and clear - but I have to let it get flat so the ladies don’t burp in the middle of a line.

Puppy Connie, the most badly behaved doggie in Panama. Yesterday, our fabulous dog trainer took Connie to his house to work with her there, and he kept her for ten whole hours. It felt like I was on vacation! Ten hours of no biting me, no chasing the cats, no chewing up the couch, no peeing on the bathroom rugs. She’s…
