Did something weird. I wrote an entry and didn’t post it. Not trying to titillate, just commenting on it. Writing an entry is pretty specific. It’s not quite like writing anything else; a letter,...

The mouses den in Normal entries

Four something on a gray Thursday afternoon, humid, warm, gray, like a mouse fetus on seconal. Huh. I used that in some poem I wrote when hitchhiking through the panhandle of Texas. The poem was ...


Man with a beggars mind is but a stranger, he is but a stranger to himself — Winwood I’m going to see if I can find that and leave it in this entry somewhere. I was sort of thinking about ethics ...

Fuzzy in Normal entries

Of all the stupid repetitive types of entries I’ve written this year, this is my least favorite sort; my head hurts. Hurt isn’t right; it’s fuzzy and fuzzy is uncomfortable in a way that can’t be...


If prosebox were a dinner party, and a case could be made for such, I have to complete my tri-fecta of poor manners. Death, politics and … religion! I was pretty mild with death and politics. I ...

86 percent in Normal entries

Stray bits of dialogue were floating around my head earlier. I sat down, in part, to give them an opportunity to express or quit this poor vessel. Verily, said motherfuckers ain’t got much to say...


Despite every other entry of mine of late that doesn’t have to do with TV, I don’t really watch that much, has to do with Facebook, I’m not really there very often. I grazed Facebook for like two...

What Happens in Normal entries

Boy do I have a bunch of stuff to tell you. Wait, my mistake, wrong you. I can make up some stuff while deciding about other stuff. Or I could bitch about something. Oh, hey, I got it, drug comme...


If you’ve been in the marginally adequate place at the marginally adequate time you have heard or been a part of a conversation something like this; “I don’t believe in God” “Yes, but god believe...


Daughter texted today, is kind of in the middle of texting. They went Dress shopping for wedding gowns today. I’ve had her wedding on my mind a lot lately too. I think the GF is probably not comi...

Kvetching in Normal entries

My handle on certain educational milestones is pretty accurate within a year or so. I remember when Santa died, when I felt that first quiver of finding a clit and later a G-spot, when I discover...


I was somewhere (shut up, I was too, I go places and some where’s, in fact, I’ll put it in writing; I’m always some where) and eavesdropping (if you don’t want me eavesdropping learn telepathy o...


“ I really hate your relationship with your clothes.” “The fuck? I’ve been accused of a lot of things, even convicted of a few, but never, ever of being a clothes horse. Shit half my wardrobe wou...


Google moment. I’m using that now instead of the outdated senior moment mostly because the blame shifts outward. I had to look up an advertisement. Oh wait. Prince is dead. Shit. Ok, I had to loo...


My postal problems have come to an end. For the time being. Funny how a day after I called the national number and, after posting here, received an apology from the vendor, the package just showe...

Correspondence in Normal entries

This is me bitching. Why? It seems to be my only recourse, though this won’t affect anything, it’s what I’ll post in a forum where it will affect things. The first is a ticket I opened and was cl...


The needle poked past eighty today. The thermometer needle, the one for the air (or maybe it’s rectal in the earth. I know how mercury works, but everything is digital now). Maybe the speedometer...


I opened one of those Word Doc desktop orphans; blank. Hmmm, I’m not sure I’ve ever explained desktop orphans, I kind of assumed it was obvious, but it might not be. I use a desktop and it has a ...

The Drover in Normal entries

Because I have been chatting about songs … Because my immediate present is boring … Because if I don’t type I’ll go mad(der) and typing to oneself is cra(zy. Um, for a little while at least the k...

Use a fork Luke in Normal entries

Went to see my primary today. It was pleasantly uneventful. Or rather, I thought so. Who the fuck knows what evil lurks? I went to Walgreens afterwards for water and candy. I can’t drink tap wate...
