• Push Here To Open
  Tweet TweetHow’s it hanging, love-tunnelers? Well. It’s been touch-and-go for years, but it’s official: I finally love Chicago. I really, really do. When I first moved here, I hated it. The cool green streets of Minneapolis were fresh in my mind, and all my friends were there [...]
• Wide Open Spaces
  Tweet TweetWhat’s up, gash-snackers? Hehehe. Remember when I was bitching about it being winter forever? Remember when it felt like winter would never end???   Well!  The ground has thawed! The breeze has mellowed! The daffodils and crocuses (croci?) are budding through the damp, cool earth, sending [...]
• Pay It Homoward
  Tweet TweetHiya minge-munchers!! It’s a new year!  We made it! The last year of life on Earth, according to the Mayans and shitty Hollywood summer movies! Here we are, eleven days into 2012, and I must say that, so far, my New Year’s resolutions [...]

• Shake That
  Tweet TweetHola, velvet tunnelers! If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?   I know, I know. Questions like that are a cheap way of getting to know someone. Questions like that come printed in brochures called “Connecting With Your Teen.” But seriously. Assuming [...]
• The Fabric of Our Lives
  Tweet TweetWhat’s up, box-handlers? Ahhh it’s finally Fall.   I’ve been waiting for this. Sweaters. Scarves. Tall boots. Girls in tweedy blazers.  Gusting winds. Being naked under down comforters. Suddenly needing socks.     At last, at last. The surly neighborhood 14-year-old boys who hang out in front of the produce store [...]
• That’s Not a Recent Picture
  Tweet Tweet   Hey there, cave-dwellers! Have you ever had strep throat before? I ask you this because I was just eating delicious gluten-free shortbread cookies after work this afternoon. In the midst of shoving crumbly fistfuls down my throat, I looked at the bag. It suddenly [...]

• Are you gonna eat that?
  Tweet Tweet  Hiya fish-mongers! How was your Pride? Mine was, um, epic. Live/drunk blogging was ridiculous.
