I’ve quit drinking Coke, except on game night (Saturday nights), when I drink 4 cans in less than 4 hours. Damn game night. Should have followed Trekhead’s example, and brought bottles of water. Next week, I will. I’m getting rid of my gamer gut — slowly, but surely. I used to call it my husband…
I can’t believe I forgot this song. It used to be my anthem, the song I listened to whenever I got down, whenever the world decided to kick me in the teeth (another great song, for another time). The Wife never liked Rush all that much. She indulged me one concert, and that was kind,…

“Beware of poets who read their poetry in public – they may have other bad habits.” – Robert Heinlein I’m listening to Tom Waits — wishing I had his voice I live in LA — and I like it I’m calling old friends I haven’t seen in years — hoping the wounds have healed And…
