This morning I sent out a shitload of mail. If you’re waiting for something from me, maybe it went out. But there is still more to prepare. So maybe it didn’t. After the postie we went to Trader Joe’s and got a lot of foods. Most remarkable was the quantity of yogurt. Also, we bought… Read More »

Yesterday Erik was hiking with his friend T at Pt Reyes. I went to church in the morning and then took a walk in the wind. I got a creepy comment from the crazy lady downstairs as I passed her door. She said, “Man, I don’t think you’re blind.” So I thought about that all… Read More »
novel
I’ve started reading a novel called The History of Love at the recommendation of my friend and favorite ex-student C. I just got attached to the main character when it switched main characters on me. No fair! I’m only on page 38. I like it so far. But I’m not much of a novel person.… Read More »
park day
Yesterday my friend A came to visit with her daughters and her husband. Her husband wanted to go to a Sacramento junkyard for a certain car part. So A and I watched the kids play at the park for a long time. There was a cold wind blowing. You’ll never guess what. Another kid asked… Read More »
Katie’s interview

functionally ill #3 is out
Functionally ill #3 is out. It’s quarter size and made up of small vignettes on identifying, control, pills, psychiatrists, Somatherapy, DBT, and The Icarus Project. Probably the most attractive thing about this issue is a transcription of my voices. That’s also what makes me feel most vulnerable. If you’re interested, please let me know and… Read More »
resolved
I am in love with Greek yogurt. It’s at Trader Joe’s. The screwy thing is that the plain nonfat is the same color and shape container as the plain whole milk. So I was trying to buy the nonfat and got the whole milk on accident. I kid you not when I say that one… Read More »
