  • More The Thing

    More The Thing

    One time after hardly sleeping for many, many days and nights (ah, the heady days of chronic insomnia plus university assignments and poor time management), I decided on a whim that The Thing (the 80s one) was absolutely, unbeatably amazing…

    Halloween Helper

    Here’s the thing. The mummy could be about to say, “No worries! Hang tight while I’ll pop to the store for you!”

  • White Goose’s Reign of Terror

    White Goose’s Reign of Terror

    One day when I was little my parents decided to ruin everything. This was not unusual. Parents of small children must keep to a strict schedule of Ruining Everything to prepare their brood for the challenges of life. It is important to get all your tantrumming out of the way as a child when you…

  • BIG NEWS

    BIG NEWS

    Probably, anyway, because I made this in advance and scheduled it to appear at just the right time. But I’m sure I would have had a free minute with an internet connection to delete it if anything untoward occurred and messed everything up, so if you can see this, it’s safe to assume that I…

  • Foibles (little crazy things)

    Foibles (little crazy things)

    I parenthetically (in brackets) translate words in my head. Not all words. In fact, not even most words. Most words slip through my mind without leaving a ripple. This lulls me into the false sense of security that I know them well. In reality if I was put on the spot to concisely define a…
