  • High Speed Net Whew!

    I think it is my upbringing to always be suspicious of things that appear too good to be true – or to at least be a little en garde (on guard?) when life seems to work out perfectly for long stretches of time. Such was when I started worrying that this wonderful new apartment I’d […]

  • Did anyone catch this week's

    Did anyone catch this week’s Crank Yankers? I’ve started watching the show lately after South Park. It’s getting funnier each episode. They have this puppet/character called Spoonie Luv that calls in a Village Voice personals ad. Wish I had the transcript – it was hysterical. He was looking for a lezady that wouldn’t mind gettin’ […]

  • Hell yeah!

    From: Andy To: Karen, Brigitte, Heather Subject: I got the apartment! I’m moving to Wellington and Halsted! ROCK THE F_CK ON!

  • Like a Stage in Vaudeville

    Had a great workout this morning. I always love Mondays because everything for the week seems so possible. I have been lifting really heavy lately and focusing on where I grow first, first: shoulders and triceps. Then everything else. I think the best physical attribute dad gave me was my shoulders. They are getting bigger […]

  • (From Vacation)

    (6-21-02) The good thing about David Sedaris is he reminds me that I’m not nearly neurotic enough. I just finished his book Me Talk Pretty one Day- it is so nict o have the time to actually read an entire book in one day. We have settled into the beach house here on St. George […]
