We’re Having Lovely Weather

Posted on June 6, 2018 by Kate

Day 2, Fracture 1,Me 0

Posted on June 4, 2018 by Kate

Kage Baker believed that the 3rd day of an injury was the worst. She had some logical reason for it, but I think she just figured after 3 days, you reached the nadir of comfort. So she used that excuse … Continue reading →

Posted on June 3, 2018 by Kate

Kage Baker despaired of my life on a regular basis throughout her life. This was because I have bizarre destructive things happen to me with ridiculous frequency. This evening, I tripped over a bag of yarn, hit the cat tower with … Continue reading →

Watching The Lights

Posted on June 2, 2018 by Kate

Up All Night. And All Day (So Far, Anyway)

Memories In May

Daily Weirdness, With Possums

Posted on May 26, 2018 by Kate

Kage Baker firmly believed that the basis of the world as we know it is weirdness. Most human endeavour, she felt, was an attempt to explain, ignore, or encompass weirdness. People don’t usually like it, you see, and they structure … Continue reading →

An Unexpected Glitch

Posted on May 25, 2018 by Kate

Kage Baker. There, that’s my traditional beginning. I have now planted my banner on another dark Friday. I am temporarily out of order, with something vile of a gastrointestinal order. I’ve probably been poisoned by the forces of darkness. However, … Continue reading →
