Month: April 2002

The party at Bandera went great. We had downpour most of the morning so the guest list was about nine. But we had two booths so I was able to go back and forth and mingle with my revelers. The food was fantastic of course and the skillet of corn bread remains manna on par […]

TLC members Lisa “Left-Eye” (she wore a eye-patch as a gimmick) Lopes died. The comments on Metafilter are hysterically crass: I blame poor depth perception. Was she leaning out of the passenger side of her best friend’s ride? Yeah, she was tryin’ to holler at me. And I want to know why they said she […]

I made the mistake of taking double decongestants last night when I got home. I tis now 2:54 AM and I can’t get back to sleep. The weekend went well. The flight was fine. Holding your grandmother’s ancient hand and staring into her sky-blue timeless eyes seems to put everything into perspective.
