Well, hello there world! Greetings from the other side of Mardi Gras. I am laughing so hard right now at my first Mardi Gras post of the year, whereupon I shared my excitement and overwhelmedness about being busy preparing for my FIRST EVER PARADE. I’m not laughing because it was ridiculous or otherwise laughable. I’m…

Greetings From Gotham
So, our Mardi Gras season got even more full this past week than when I wrote about it last time. This past week, we were prompted by friends to go to the 610 Stomper Superball, and we got a hookup on tickets, and so we went. And THEN, my house guests for the first weekend…
Whereupon It All BEGINS
Hail! The Twelve Days of Christmas have come and gone, and upon that Partridge’s last resounding squawk from the boughs of its Pear Tree, Twelfth Night emerged upon us and, at long LAST, that most glorious of seasons began, the season that inspires one to truly and fully realize what a delightfully weird and incredible…
FYC is THREE!
My goodness. I just realized. January 5, 2012. Denver. Snow. Desire to DO SOMETHING of my own. Saving to move. Craving to write. I can’t believe that was three years ago, already. What a wild ride it has all been, since. Thanks to all of you who have been Reading this Ride. For THREE YEARS. …
Winter Blush
MAN, was it cold last Friday night. I’m talking go-outside-and-instantly-lose-feeling-in-your-hands cold. Bitter-damp-wind-swirling-off-the-river-soaking-into-your-bones-and-soul COLD! But when J and I walked into Generations Hall at 9:00 that night, I warmed right up, inside and out. It was that time of year again! Time to Blush with the Pussyfooters, at Blush Ball 2015. It’s funny – last year,…
When Nature Calls
When nature calls…you listen. I’m not talking about that moment where you’re sitting comfortably at a table in a pub, drinking pints, and suddenly all that fine liquid barley catches up and you suddenly REALLY have to pee and end up forfeiting a great conversation for a mad dash to the loo. Although you should…
Reunion
I usually have a rule for myself, of not posting more than one blog entry in a day. I’m breaking that rule today to get the following out, because I’ve been sitting on these emotions for weeks and…it’s just time. More about my crazy month-and-a-half will follow in a more regulated fashion. ***** I’m glad…
Whereupon I Evolved from Patient to Villain in 24 Hours
At 6:00 a.m. yesterday, J and I went forth into the darkness to the medical center for my dreaded Nose Surgery. Checked in, saw my folks who came for support, talked some Batman, and was then taken back into the patient space to get the whole shebang started. Touro has a great team over there, for…
Thought Bubbles
The one thing you never want to do when you’re actually trying to better promote your blog is NOT update it on a regular basis. Bad on me! Time flies, and it has been busy. And, in and around the busy, I’ve been tired from being so busy and therefore doing things like reading books and…
