The Product: Das Bookshelf
Who doesn’t love a peek at someone elses a bookshelf? I was talking to my friend the Theologian the other night about how I even judge the book shelves at used bookstores. It’s a disease.

In the dream Grumpy’s was crowded. I was sitting at a table with Vodo and some other friends of mine. Peabo was at a different table across the bar with Neko Case and some other friends.
Vodo gave me a card in the shape of a bowling ball, inside he had drawn a cartoon of [...]

I’ve had a lot on my mind lately which prevents me from writing. Writing requires brain capacity and mine is being all used up thinking about things and stuff. I’ve managed to score a second interview for a potential gig. This astounds me to no end. It’s been a very long long time since I’ve [...]

Jonathan Coe | Why I write | guardian.co.uk Books
No, I’m very undisciplined. I stare at the computer until I get bored, which takes about five minutes. Then, if I’m feeling energetic, I’ll get [...]

“Can you guys be really quiet while I make a very important phone call?” I asked the Tibbles.
“Why you gotta call?” Cade asked.
“It’s about a job.”
“Why do you need a job?”
“So I can make some money.”
“But what about being our aunt?” he asked.
“I’ll still be your aunt.”
“That’s your job, being our aunt.”
“It doesn’t pay that [...]

Can I get an AMEN! This woman responds to the Jezebel Hullabaloo the way I wish I could have, had I not been blacking out with the rage. I agree that drinking a lot and having a lot of sex with different men is not feminism. It might be your lifestyle choice and a lot [...]

One
Max on top of the jungle gym starts shouts down to Nolan calling him the Boogeyman.
Nolan climbs the swirly slide, gets to the top, shoves his finger in his nose and wipes it on Max’s shirt.
I call no foul because it’s funny.
Two
Max: I’m bored.
Me: I’m not.
Max: What are you doing?
Me (singing to the tune of [...]

I had avoided the whole Jezebel hullabaloo until this morning when I was reading Mediation’s thoughts on the nonsense. I followed his links to the Metafilter discussion and it was after watching the video there that I blacked out from sheer rage. I’m so angry I can’t even write anything coherent.

It’s hard to write about Ethan Canin’s new novel America America without staring into space and sighing dreamily. I’m going to put it out there. If this doesn’t turn out to be my favorite novel of 2008 I am going to shocked. Shocked and amazed. This book is so good that I have trouble finding [...]

I’ll always be the kind of girl with peanut butter on her shirt
My house will always be filled with cat hair, unorganized books, and unfulfilled desire

I just applied for a for reals job for the first time since 2000 (three fors in one sentence, go me). I feel a little like I’m going to barf. I forgot how nerve-wracking it is to want something like this.

I have my own special Martin Zellar moment — dancing with LaFrenz to Zeller singing “Forever in Blue Jeans” at the Golden Chair in Eau Claire. I think it’s impossible to be a Minnesota girl wtihout having a special Gear Daddies memory

“Never mind that while he was on my ass about being in lust with a celebrity who lives in France and has two children with a French model, Greg was in love with a girl from, you know, like, down the street.” Peabo cracks me up.

It’s after 9 a.m. on a Sunday morning and I haven’t spoken or chatted with anyone since 11 p.m. on Friday. This is not a complaint, only an observation. I did, however, respond to an e-mail which has left my brain spinning a bit. In the e-mail a friend and I were discussing oversharing.
A few [...]
