Most of the time, I’m ok with my food allergies.
It means I don’t eat out very often, but I can usually find fun stuff to make at home. I don’t actively miss the stuff I can’t have — mostly.
But I think I am learning that summertime makes me miss food more, maybe because summer food [...]

Brian and I were out hiking the other day, and when we reached the parking lot at the end of the trail, we saw a fat little black lab. She was very happy to see us, butt wagging, eager for head scratches. We stopped to say hello, and then spoke to this older couple sitting [...]

Know when you look at something really quickly and you will read it the wrong way?
This happens to me a lot. It’s often very entertaining because what I think I see, so rarely relates to the context around it.
Take, for example, the squabble fish.
I had started typing in a web address and I could see [...]

Me and Loki Dog

She strides along in front of me

her shadow hair in a fluffy triangle about her head

This morning, I was completely exhausted. Coffee didn’t help. I felt like I was moving at half-speed, at best. I figured by the time I got home, I would just fall over and go to bed for the night.

I’ve posted about my dreams before.
Sometimes, I get entire scenes from stories to write. Sometimes I get a really cool line or title for a story.
Sometimes, I have horrible, awful, violent nightmares.
And sometimes, my dreams are just so bizarre, that I have to think that the little creative people who live in my head have [...]
