When I was a teenager, Domino’s pizza had this special going on. It was something like Mondays (or was it Friday’s?) you could get a large pizza for 6 bucks or something like that. It was substantially cheaper than the rest of the week, and since it was easy, my mom was all for itContinue reading “Trying to get a free pizza”

Just the other day I was saying I was trying to take a break from following the news because it is all so depressing and infuriating, and I have ‘coronavirus fatigue’ as some media outlet put it. But somehow my eyes and ears have perked back up, and I’m back to the beginning stages ofContinue reading “Suddenly I am interested in the news again, and my most successful prank call”

Fuck it, I don’t even know what to say anymore in regards to this “quarantine diaries” stuff. I’m trying to just give up on watching/reading the news because it makes me so angry and horrified. I’ve gotten a bit better on staying on some kind of schedule, but I still find myself sometimes on aContinue reading “A few sentences about what bullshit this is, and also – where in the world is keith turner?”

Last Monday I got an email from a medical clinic I had visited years ago. At the time I was kind of a lab rat for a clinical trial on IBS. I dropped out of the trial because I got violently ill from the drug, and that was that. But I did collect my $500.00,Continue reading “Do I or Don’t I?”

I am definitely slowly (actually, at this point, rapidly) going insane. Today I woke up and decided to chop off all of my hair, just for fun. It doesn’t look great, but I have definitely given myself worse haircuts. And at least there is someone slightly different looking in the mirror that I pass aContinue reading “The Trip to Roslyn That Never Was….”

What a fucking day. week. month. Whatever, at this point…What *is* time, anyway? I’ve had a hard time this week. This whole thing is taking a psychological toll on me. From talking to a couple of other people, it seems that I may not be alone in this. We made it through a month ofContinue reading “My God, WHAT IS HAPPENING???!!!! (also, bee pollen man story)”

I think this is week six of staying at home. For the most, part I have pretty much felt like this is everything I’ve been trained for – I live alone for a reason, which is because most people drive me insane, I hate waking up and having a schedule, I’m not overly social, IContinue reading “Is this week six?”

Oh man…. Everyday it gets worse. It’s like watching our country being doused with gasoline and lit on fire, with Donald Trump flashing the devil horns hand gesture. And a bunch of really stupid people cheering him on. So, you know, why not listen to some Wilson Phillips? The lyrics aren’t EXACTLY as fitting asContinue reading “I got Nothing. But this Wilson Phillips Video”

Well, thankfully nobody is listening to Donald Trump regarding opening the country to save the economy and just let all the poor people die. Well, except a handful of protesters in states where I’m assuming the people are inbred. Seriously, what the fuck Michigan???!! From what I understand Detroit was hit pretty hard, so thisContinue reading “4 More Weeks (at least)!”

This story is a request from my old friend Delores, my favorite coworker and pretty much best friend from back in Portland. She somehow got a kick out of this. She was older than me, and kind of a grounding influence, but also a whole lot of fun to throw some beers back with. IContinue reading “My Trip To Bagby Hot Springs”
