I haven’t copped out and written a post with dots in a long time. For some reason I’m in the mood to post but don’t really have anything to write about, or the brain power to devise something. So dots, you get. You know the first one, right? Of course. I’m going to beg you to...

My sleep patterns are so screwed. I didn’t go to bed until 4 a.m. after Saturday’s concert. Slept for four hours, woke up with Activ-On withdrawl, went back to sleep at 10 a.m. and didn’t wake until 2 p.m. Sunday night, no sleep until after 4 a.m. I’m tired as hell, but here ...

That’s right. I have nothing to report. Today’s big news: my chest phlegm has loosened, thus meaning I won’t even have my cold to blog about for much longer. Which is fine. I’m sick of it. Today I: drank a lot of Emergen-C. At this point I’ve developed a taste for it an...

Since I’m somewhat ill, I figure it’s time for some some dotty laziness. I’m not seriously sick. Just lethargic and kind of belly-achy. After I took Clara Jane to school, I came home with thoughts of being productive. I went back to bed and got up when it was time to pick her up. I...

It’s been ten days. I’ve earned the opportunity to phone it in a bit. While writing at the coffeehouse today I consumed 48 ounces of black coffee and three shots of espresso. I’ve learned that coffee hangovers rivals once created by alcohol. Speaking of alcohol, I shouldn’t h...

I’m on one of those pills that allows only three periods a year. Or maybe it’s four. I never can remember because my doctor’s prescription indicates that I skip the placebo pills and avoid that period business altogether because it makes me certifiable. On the months when I’m...

Ask me if my mood’s improved. Go on. I dare you. Today’s one of those days when I bust out the spare emergency Klonopin. It hasn’t done any good yet. If you paid for dog biscuits or cat toys in that fundraiser I did for Kristina , they’re on their way. I’m slow, I know,...

I have a beast that moved into my chest last night. It’s 80 degrees outside and I’m coughing like it’s January. My usual October cough didn’t happen last year; I guess it was simply running six months late. My lord, this child … I don’t want to complain about her....

After last week’s fun in Chicago, I’ve had trouble readjusting to civilian life. Did I mention that I took Megabus for  my Chicago travels? I’d do it again. My only complaint: the driver on Sunday was about the same age as my grandfather. Not that I’m ageist; I’m thril...

You order any homemade dog biscuits or cat toys yet to support the Greater Akron Humane Society? Best get on it. I’m baking treats on Sunday and knitting kitty dim sum as fast as I can. Speaking of cooking, OtherRobin and I are officially up and running with our cooking blog. It’s called...
