decided

“I decided something,” I told Ming.  I washed a carrot and was chopping it on the cutting board, making breakfast.  The carrot was going in my rice. “What?” he asked. “This rap I’ve been listening to is bothering me.  I can’t do the gunshot sounds or people calling women bitches anymore.  I’m done with it,”… Read More »

cloud pics

Can I show you pretty cloud pics?  Some amazing stuff’s been going on in the sky lately. Well, probably longer than lately, huh.  Probably since the sky existed–quite a while.  What do you think of this one?  Is it a tornado that didn’t tornado-ize? Looks to me like a sea creature, but I don’t know… Read More »

dumbfoundead

Oh hey, I saw a video by Dumbfoundead that I found reprehensible.  It’s rare that I feel grossed out by the values I see in a video.  But I started a private youtube playlist, just to save the reprehensible videos I see!  To show Ming and talk about, or to write about later, like right… Read More »

poor cognition

“Are you having a poor cognition morning?” I asked Ming. We were at home, and he was standing at the cutting board, looking spacey.  “Where?” he asked. Hmm, not a real appropriate response.  “In our house?” I said. “What?” he asked. “Hmm, I think you just answered my question!” I said.  Then I started laughing,… Read More »

pink affirmations

This is my new pink affirmations video.  Thank you to Ming for videographing.  Sweetheart, your help really helped. Unfortunately, the camera on my phone is pretty bad.  The picture jumps annoyingly!  But I think the sound is ok, and the love is true. Maybe one day I’ll have better equipment.  Meanwhile, here’s what we got. … Read More »

emotional breakdown

“Why are you sad?” Ming asked.  We were pulled over by this off-roading area where people ride dirt bikes and dune buggies.  But they were far away and not too loud.  It was a good place to have an emotional breakdown. “I don’t know–am I sad?” I asked.  I was crying with my whole body,… Read More »

success

“Wow, that trip was such a success!” I told Ming as he drove.  “I didn’t shit my pants even once!”  We laughed.  There had been bathroom concern, because of a medication I’m still getting used to. “We didn’t get into even one car wreck,” I continued.  “We didn’t die at all.  No hauntings–no abductions.  And… Read More »

I like the way you stim

Look at my new hat.  I wore this our second walk on Harford Pier.  We saw an otter out in the water–sometimes it floated on its back to rest, then dove.  I like the way you stim. I wanted to embroider the words on this pink baseball cap, but my needle couldn’t go through the… Read More »
