  • Spring Fever!

    March 19, 2010

    • A’ight, it’s March 19th and this week the weather has been fantastic.  Enough so that I’m getting antsy to get out in the sunshine and tan up.  I hate being winter pale, don’t you?    This kind of weather makes it so hard not to break down and play hooky from daily responsibilities.  I remember being in college and the first spring heat wave (or near spring) always brought on a beach ...
  • Scents, Senses, and Aphrodisiacs

    February 5, 2010

    • Love of gardening is a seed that once sown never dies, but always grows and grows to an enduring and ever-increasing source of happiness.”  Gertrude Jekyll In the middle of every dark grey dreary winter, February, the month of love, lovers, and longing shyly signals the forthcoming rebirth of spring as sensuous jonquils stretch their stamens skyward.  Amour is in the air and what ...

  • The Real Dogzilla

    January 6, 2010

    • Nothing escapes the jaws of Chloe the Pit Bull pup. Since her teething stage as a little puppy she has graduated from soft chewy chew toys to hard rubber toys like the Dogzilla line and still manages to pulverize most of them with her super strong jaws and teeth. Toys don't last with Chloe and often time when I present a new rubber toy that I think could withstand the power of her bit I am proven ...
  • Happy 2010, Red Room friends

    January 1, 2010

    •                                     ‘nother New Year   When a friend called and asked me what I was doing on New Year’s Eve, I was startled. I hadn’t realized the year was almost gone. Oh, I knew the end was near or, if not, I was planning to divorce 2009. But on its deathbed, no, I was surprised. Where had the days gone?  Like all our days they slip ...

  • A Book and a Chat with "Courtney J. Webb"

    October 31, 2009

    • Over the weeks, I've had guest calling parked at the side of the road, guest calling from up in the mountains or on a trail through the wilds. I've had guests from Canada and England, however today my show with Courtney J Webb was something different. Courtney is in Australia, and with the aid of a bottle of Prune Juice (that could cause some issues later on) joined the show at 2am in the ...
  • What Halloween Means to Me

    October 29, 2009

    • As a witch, Halloween used to mean that I'd dress up like my pet, mimic her actions and get drunk on strawberry wine, making her my familiar. Halloween was also one of the eight major sabbats, where I'd bust out my guitar and growl praises to the devil, also while drinking strawberry wine. Now, as an ex-witch, it means putting on a costume and trick-or-treating with the kids in my neighborhood ...
  • Coffee coloured conversations

    October 7, 2009

    • A particularly happy day today. Gina is an intensely focused writer, often working from the moment she wakes up until 4 or 5 in the morning. As anyone who follows my blogs knows, I am very proud of her and certainly do not begrudge her working practices.  It’s always been my opinion that any creative person should never be interrupted when they are in the zone, as I call it, even if it means ...
