THIS FAT OLD LADY GETS CLIPPED

  (Basically, this haircut, only red instead of blond) In April, I got my hair cut into a smart bob. Prior to that I had let it grow to the wad it up and pin it on top of your head length. And I haven’t had a haircut since April. As I have bitched before,…

THIS FAT OLD LADY LEARNS A NEW TRICK

I have worn body mics in a lot of shows; but during my most recent show (Irene – I played Geraldine O’Dare, Irene’s mother, and quite frankly, I rocked it thanks to a great director, staff, crew and rest of the cast – truly wonderful folks all), we were asked to handle the mics with…

THIS FAT OLD LADY GETS AVENGED

Have you seen the Avengers? The 2012 movie, not the new one. Of course you have. Since we spare ourselves the trauma of watching a movie in a movie theater (where narrow seats pinch my fat old lady ass and the floors are sticky with things best not thought of – much less stepped in),…

THIS FAT OLD LADY BRAGS ON HER HOME STATE

Michigan is in the news! And it’s good news – sort of. Michigan is the only state in the United States that has head lice that have not mutated and become resistant to over-the-counter treatments! Um. Whoo-hoo? Seems that head lice in a lot of states have become resistant to pyrethroids, the active ingredient in…

THIS FAT OLD LADY HAS A QUESTION FOR PUTIN

I open up Yahoo this morning and there’s this picture of Putin in a mini-sub that is (supposedly) headed down to the bottom of the Black Sea. Okay. Don’t know why that is so exciting but fine. Whatever. But I have one question – to the right of Putin’s head – is that a roll…

THIS FAT OLD LADY NEEDS A FAVOR

Could someone please have a talk with your deity of choice about the weather here in San Jose? It’s just too flipping hot. I HATE hot weather. I’m not a huge fan of cold weather, but if you are cold, you can put something more on. When it’s hot, you can only take so much…

THIS FAT OLD LADY IS FEELING BLOG BLOCKED

I keep wanting to blog. I keep getting ready to blog. And then …. I don’t. I don’t know why. I have stuff to blog about. I just can’t get my fingers to cooperate and type it out. So it’s not like writer’s block, but my fingers are writing blocking me. So I’m trying to…

THIS FAT OLD LADY GETS DUCTED

The saga of my broken bed continues. Yesterday, I went to take the old bed frame apart and prepare for 2 weeks of snoozing on the floor and trying to get my fat old lady butt up from that level each morning. Not a pleasant image, I know. So I’m looking at this boo-boo bed…

THIS FAT OLD LADY IS ROUGH IN BED

  Okay – actually I’m rough on the bed. As in our bed frame broke this morning. (Happily, no cats were injured in the collapse.) Fuck. I feel like I’m teetering on the edge of a bout of depression and this is really not what I needed in my life, you know. Well, time to…
