September 11, 2001.

When I rolled over and looked at the clock it was 6:45 a.m.  I didn’t need to be out of bed for two more hours. I adjusted the pillows, pulled the blanket over my head and willed myself back to sleep. After another 45 minutes of this I gave up. Jet lag is a bitch. I’d…

I Miss the Mountains!

I’d like to speak to the manager!!! What’s a place, habit, or moment that reliably feels a little bit enchanted to you? This is a great prompt. I have thought about it for well over a week. A place: Oh. There are so many. A habit: Oh. There are so many. A moment: Oh. There…

And I will always love you!!!

I’d like to speak to the manager!!! Dolly died yesterday.  I read the news post just as I was getting up.  To say that I gasped was an understatement.  We’ve all known it was coming, but even forty years from now would have been too soon.  She is the best Christian that I have ever known.  Accepting of everyone.  Honoring…

Wishing you were somehow here again.

I’d like to speak to the manager!!! My latest writing prompt: Write about a door you’ve walked through that you can’t go back through. I got this suggestion a week ago and I’ve thought about it a lot, but I keep coming back to the same story. Every time. In 2007, I spent the summer…

Pump, pop here comes a hill!

I’d like to speak to the manager!!! What is something in your life, literal or metaphorical, that you wish would miraculously last for a much longer time than it was meant to? What would you do with that extra time? Continued from last night: In the early spring of 2001, I was living in the…

Everyone’s a LITTLE BIT RACIST!

I’d like to speak to manager! I used to think _______________. But now I know _______________. While Adam and I were in NYC we had a quick dinner with a friend of ours.  She’s a performer and writer who Adam met years ago.  I met her at Adam’s birthday dinner, three weeks after we started dating.   She’s…

I’m leaving on a jet plane.

I’d like to speak to the manager!!! Day 9: The day started early as Adam and I had to pack to come home. Well early for us. We left our apartment at 10:30. First stop was coffee with my friend Drew. Back story: For the past several years Adam and I would go to NYC…

Jellicle cats come out tonight.

I’d like to speak to the manager!!! Cats. The Jellicle Ball. Oh. My. Fucking. God. It’s the most fun I’ve had at a show in forever, if not ever. It’s the Cats score, but reworked into a Ballroom setting, referencing the Ballrooms of the 80’s depicted in the movie Paris is Buring. So may queer…

I spoke to the manager!

I spoke to the manager!!! Yes. I did. I actually asked to speak to the manager!!! Adam and I had a reservation at 5:30 for dinner tonight. The only reason Adam wanted to go there, was because last year, when we dined there the mashed potatoes, and chocolate cake were some of the best he’d…
