the bracelets

This is the first one I made. This one is simple and rainbow colors. This one is earth tones.

news from the guacamole festival

Today I worked on a poetry thing for a while–it required that I go to the office supply store and make some copies–it’s a poetry chain, and it’s kind of complicated to explain, but the poems that are passed along are evaluated by other participants and can end up included in a zine. Yesterday I… Read More »

super remarkable day

tomatoes

Erik rearranged the livingroom furniture while I was at my volunteer job, and it takes some getting used to, but I think I like it. I have a slightly different view out the window from my computer. He just took apart the broken boxspring and got it all into the dumpster. It’s one less thing… Read More »

Kitty problem

Erik went back to sleep, but I was feeling paranoid that the neighbors’ conversation was about us and Kitty, upset about how Kitty wakes them up. I imagined them… Read More »

malfunction

Something really weird happened with Word. I lost my right scroll bar. What should I do? Erik uses the gmail word processor. Maybe I could find a freeware word processor that meets my needs. But so many people require, for example, sending a resume as an attachment, and I would assume that Word is the… Read More »

fetish, carrots

The best thing that happened today was seeing my friend A for tea. She gave me two presents: a book and a little fetish. She said someone gave it to her, and she’s passing it along. This is one of my favorite kinds of gifts. This evening when I made Erik’s fried rice, I put… Read More »
