At the moment


Olivia is playing Greensleeves on guitar in the next room, and I hum along.

Unremembered penance

Today I took up my Cross with full intention of sufferance complete - then, I leaned it for only a moment against my Spinet and positively forgot my Penitence.

A smile for tonight

Right now next to me is a deep, white cereal bowl and in that cereal bowl is a preposterously large amount of ice cream, whipped cream, bananas, caramel and pecans and I'm sorry, but I'm going to eat the whole thing.

Then I will read and sleep in my warm blanket, warm room, warm house. And tomorrow I shall achieve, conquer, continue.

Sweet dreams to everyone.

Last night I dreamt that for the first time in years my Dad called me Tina, and that has stayed with me all day.

Imagine, if you will, this. Only greener, taller, and so happy.

A comet in '97

So vividly I can remember standing out in the old street, gazing up at Hale-Bopp: snowballing through Infinity as it seemed, slowing long enough to take a little hand and nurture a so very young sense of wonder. My first memory of ever looking at the Sky - I have been trying to touch a Star ever since - tracing Constellations; someday, to connect the dots and "dance on tightropes in between"
Maybe it's strange, but I find it much easier to accept that the Comet won't return for millennia than to believe that that night was a full decade ago.

How silly to miss a dog

Bear; n. Singular.


1) always perked up by the word "walk"



2) always joined in at Rally Time



3) always understood positively Everything.
