Writer. Chicago is home. Interested in golf, cats, all things artsy, and witty conversation. Reluctantly commenting on US politics because... we have a mad king, and he wants to destroy the best bits of America.
A policeman stopped me, and yelled "papers". I shouted "Scissors!", and continued walking.
Happy #caturday! Kind of day (kind of world, actually) when it's cool to have a brother watching your back.
When signing a contract with a pirate, be sure to look for an arrrrrrrrbitration clause.
47 degrees in Chicago. Sing along with me: "Heat wave..."
"Fuck ICE" and "Chinga La Migra" posters spotted on Mission and Valencia. Artist unknown. #SFGraffiti #Graffiti #ICE #WheatPasteArt
New video game obsession: Blue Prince. A nonviolent rogue-like mansion builder, which is a game type I would never have imagined and yet - I adore this game. Perfect distraction. #videogames
Laying in supplies in anticipation of a deep freeze like I'm Laura Ingalls Wilder in 1875, living on a lonely homestead and not, y'know, two blocks from a grocery store. #latemiddleage
Trying to position my heating pad so I look attractive. #latemiddleage
Current ambition: live long enough to be able to laugh at what we're going through circa 2026.

I had a friend who was a big Bernie supporter back in the day. When my friend told me he didn't see any point in voting for HRC, I felt sick. Post-election, we met exactly once, when I told him to take care of himself in what was going to be an increasingly scary world. He looked back at me with a baffled expression, we parted, and our friendship ended.

I think about him a lot. I hope he's okay.
