Don’t Thank Me

I was swiffering a moment ago (Those of you who slack, this is just a blip. Total selfish motivation prompted the swiffering since I kept tripping on the chunks’o’shit when I went to get a snack or a refill.) and I noticed Mr. Froth, sitting at the patio table, just squinching up in pain. His [...]

Sucking Up to Slack

I can’t compare to a professional, but I am proficient at hearing voices in my head on the weekend telling me to do stuff, then getting the stuff out with which to do stuff, then sitting for a moment contemplating the stuff to be done, then pulling out some nail polish or a book or [...]

Dog

Oh, the Beebs is okay. Okay as old and falling apart can be. He really is the sweetest, kindest, most smartest American ambassador of dogdom I know.
The afternoon is like butter - perfectly smooth, air and temperature and temperaments emulsified. Mottled sunlight overlays two humans and a dog, who is reclining on the deck. A [...]

Swinging

Elisson got to see Big Bad Voodoo Daddy recently. Which reminded me of our BBVD experience.  If you’ve never listened to them or have never seen them, your life is a bereft pit, littered only with CD wrapper fragments of crappy bands and wistful whisperings of what could have been.
They are da shit. Only with [...]

Yumbo Gumbo

All Atwitter posted a very easy-sounding gumbo recipe that I shall try. If I can get Mr. Froth to go buy stuff. The recipe is courtesy of Uncle Fes, who is partial to wiener dogs on a stick.

Blurbfest

Speaking of dreams last night’s was a doozy. We were having a huge fireworks display in a colosseum. And the military needed to bomb a valley where some villagers were in order to make them move. Not bomb the people, just nudge them out of the way. I know. So, while waiting for the fireworks [...]

Boolagging

Have you been “booed” yet? No, no, not that kind of boo, because of poor performance or your general craptasticness. Although some of us (like me, for instance, since as how I took off today because I was tired and slept til noon and am now doing this) probably deserve a good boo occasionally. No. That’s [...]

Vogue and Vanity Fair

Now, like any self-respecting shoe freak, I appreciate the magazines out there offering their wares, tempting us with skeletons sporting the various styles which we’re supposed to buy.
And, like any normal person, I pick and choose, and adapt the unreal concoctions photographed, and buy shit that works for me, whether whimsical, sturdy, elegant or weird.
However, [...]

A Pleasant Interlude

While Mr. Froth and I were on the deck preparing to watch OU suck in the first half, not knowing they’d suck so badly, we were observing the disaster that is our backyard. Oh, it’s the same ol’, same ol’. Deck needs repairing, foliage needs pruning, weedeating, removing, rearranging. All the usual suburban sort of [...]

OU is sucking bad

This is most distressing. There’s no reason for it. I mean, it’s supposed to be a good year. Don’t do this falter and fail bullshit in the first half. Just truly stupid.
They look like a sack of sprouting potatoes in a burlap bag stuck in a cellar corner trying to become potatoes au gratin for [...]
