Overheard recently, perhaps out of my own mouth:
“You don’t have to ask us to forget what you just said. It’s the damn default.”
That there are still people who like me in this world is a minor miracle.

I need to get back into crocheting again – not for lifelong blankets, but for things to wear – sweaters and speedos – shit like that. Then I can turn this into a crochet blog – lots of hooks to bring people in… oh go groan somewhere else.
Sometimes savoring selfishness is just basic fucking survival.
Go feral in 2026. I sure as fuck am…
My friend Chris is correct: the mid-length black puffer coat is depressingly ubiquitous. He didn’t put it quite that way, but that’s why I’m here.
I am my own private clown, able to crack myself up while sitting alone in a cafe. Self-entertainment, something I perfected as a child enamored of solitude, is the surest path to an enjoyable life.
The universe fucks us over by so often making the loudest people also the dumbest.

This seems to be a cardinal rule of most cafes and coffeeshops: if the decaf coffee isn’t already made, they will forget to make it.
Decaf drinkers get treated differently.
Not saying it’s intentional.

My social media advertising algorithm knows precisely what I want, but until it figures out how not to display those items that have already been sold out, I won’t be clicking on any of the suggestions.
Can’t take anymore of that heartbreak.
The Christmas spirit has found me and it’s like someone inseminated my ass with good will and Christmas cheer!
Merry, merry, not contrary…

How did we ever derive ‘Peggy’ from the name ‘Margaret’? And who would want to be called ‘Peggy’?
Though I suppose there are those who love getting pegged…
My mind is a terrifying place to be sometimes.
As I was relieving myself the other day, I thought of a possible title for an autobiography: “Pissing on Shirttails.”
Has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it?
When a Virgo stops caring… I’d say watch out, but it will probably be too late.
It’s frigid beneath that shadow.
The worst thing I ever really say to myself is along the lines of, “Once again you’re right, but just shut up about it.“
Whenever I feel annoyed or agitated by someone – and it probably happens as much as you might expect – I try to think of them smiling and laughing in a moment of unguarded, unbridled joy and happiness – and it instantly arrests the next step to anger.
A good trick to employ during the holiday season.
Or any season actually.
