Lessons in breadmaking

We have a New Year’s Day brunch to go to on Tuesday, and this year the friends who throw it have decided that we’re going to exchange handmade and homemade gifts instead of shopping for presents. This is fine by me, as I enjoy the gifts I receive that took the giver time to make [...]

What did I get for Christmas?

I’m glad you asked:

Now if only it came with a TARDIS… and a Time Lord.

Day of Writing III: The Search for Plot

My writing partner (well, I call her my writing partner, but really, what we do is convene in the same place and proceed to going into our own respective word worlds) is not feeling her best today and is at home medicating herself (think good thoughts for a Bitch, people). I decided, however, to go ahead [...]

We should be so lucky, lucky lucky lucky….

Look who’s snogging the Doctor.

I’m not sure whom I’m more envious of. I mean, the Doctor is dishy, but I almost think I’d rather smooch the goddess from whom all blessings emanate….

Did you know

…that “Presbyterians” is an anagram for “Britney Spears”? Thank you for pointing that out, Issa.

I even had the presence of mind to sprinkle some de-icer (dog-friendly, mind you) [...]

So happy she could just—well….

We had the house professionally cleaned yesterday. (Plus One’s family is coming over for Hanukah on Saturday, and we seem to have this aversion to dusting. We also have two dogs and three cats, so it’s easy to do the math.) We hired Herb’n Maid (recommended to us by a Bitch and her sister, C-Money), which is the St. [...]

“How was your vacation, Jeffrey?”

I’m glad you asked. I’ll tell you.
This week, when I wasn’t writing, I was reading. If you check out the reading list, you’ll see there are four new titles added to the list of books I’ve read this year. This is a good thing, since the stack of books on my nightstand was getting tall [...]

Flamboyant

Every day all the public must know
Where you are, what you do
‘Cause your life is a show
And you’re so flamboyant
Just kidding! I don’t know if he’s flamboyant or not, but the proprietor of CitizenDangerX (which I tend to think should be pronounced as if it were French—citizen dangereux) is in the running for a Gay [...]
