I always find it amazing when it is WTF Wednesday and I cannot find one thing to bitch about. Rather, I should say, I can’t find one thing that I have the energy to bitch about. Not to worry – there is always more WTF just waiting round the corner!

I love performing.  I am a good singer and I have stage presence. But what I really bring to the stage is my story-telling ability.  Not as in telling the story of the show but in telling the story of the character I’m portraying; my ability to create a full backstory for that character –…

Lately, I feel like I don’t know who I am anymore. I used to have a very firm sense of who I am.  It was an amalgam of personal style and the things I did and who I did them with. Now, I have no personal style.  99.9% of the time, I couldn’t give a…

Recently, I have noticed a trend in drug ads on TV. They all seem to squeeze in, if at all possible, that either the drug is not associated with weight gain – or that most people lost “X” pounds while using the drug – even though the drug has nothing to do with weight loss.…

I am the kind of person who (usually) gets to everything early – sometimes really, really early.  I would rather sit in my car and read for a while than risk being late. My mother was the opposite.  My Mom was always running late, about to be late, or just plain old late to (almost)…

So I tried reading The Third Policeman by Brian O’Nolan. From Wikipedia: The Third Policeman is a novel by Irish writer Brian O’Nolan, writing under the pseudonym…

So, not “me” Monday; more like “Murphy” Monday. I have owned many cats over my lifetime; and until now, I have never had a cat that needed dental treatment.  The combination of wet and dry food has always been sufficient to keep my cats’ chompers fine. And then, there’s Murphy. Friday, Murphy went for his…

A Hot Cross Nun favorite (Laura Sheriff (aka Sr. Flagrante Delicto); Linda Dodson (aka Rev. Mother Arletta Fahrt) R.I.P.; Terri Cotter Weitze (aka Sr. Tittilus Buttux); Sue Abitanta (aka Sr. Clitteruptus); and Kathy McGinty Radocaj (aka Sr. Dietus Perpetua)

I know, I know. It is becoming my habit to do my Fat Friday post on Sundays – and if it weren’t for the allure of alliteration (see what I did there?) I would change the name. Anyhow … I knew, even without Google translate’s help, that I not only loved the art work of…
