Tuesday; what the hell in Normal entries
A few years back when all the hubba-ba-loo was going on about fifty shades of gray, I gave it the haredawg book test. I open a book to a random page (I like to think of it as random, more often t...

If you look behind the curtain … boy howdy did I have an exhausting day. I had todays doctors visit written in my head, I mean alternate scripts. I made myself a promise not to lose my cool. I sh...
From the other side in Normal entries
I was twenty four when I started working with adjudicated juvenile offenders, three years older than the oldest, eight years old than the youngest. You’ll have to trust my math otherwise it’ll ta...
True dreams of Wichita in Normal entries
Cooled down a bit this morning, rain. It doesn’t cool down the way one would expect, at least the way this one would. It’s like heat is retain in the mud. As little kids my sister and I would spr...

The absence of vulgarity or How I won the Lottery in Normal entries
Yesterday I wrote a few things, they failed to thrive by attrition. I’m sure there is an easier way to say this, but I can’t manage it. The pieces fell into a shallow pool of vulgar humor and cou...
I don't know, but I been told in Normal entries
This is the first protest song I had ever heard. This version is a little pic-a-dic-a-die-do but my choices were limited on youtube. I was born in 1960 in the small town adjacent to a Big Ten ca...
Nothing bout nothing in Normal entries
Today I do my monthly dance with doc and pharmacy; it’s not anxious, just tiresome. It was anxious for the first few years, I mean I’d speak into a recording on Monday for Fridays scripts and by ...
Weird in Adjunct to 8/9/2013 flash friday; a trinity of flashs
It’s weird about a decade ago I was looking all over for this band, the album this song came from. I like the studio version better. It’s seems now that everything is on youtube, officially *ever...
Yip in Normal entries
Should probably write this now, I have fast and furious seven queued up and I might lose too many brain cells. To be fair to the franchise, I’ve lost brain doing other things as well. I know the ...

Yeah, well, shit in Normal entries
Holy Shit. What does that mean exactly? Is it supposed to denigrate holy stuff or augment the quality of shit? And is like Divine shit or just blessed by a priest or rabbi or llama? I mean the bi...
Flash Saturday or why I need a licence to type in Flash Friday
“I met this woman from Maine.” “Bang her?” “No, Portland.” “Was she cold?” “I met her in June, in Jacksonville, a long way from Maine.” “Nice.” “She had this quirk.” “Tourettes? Sociopathy? Washi...
