Fan Mail —
Finally, finally, finally I have a permanent room - at least for definitions of “permanent” of the kind I’m growing less and less satisfied with; it would be nice if someday “permanent” meant more than a mere pair of years at most. But! I get to unpack my stuff. And I have a fabulous new […]
My dearest Sickly Reader, you will not believe the kinds of drugs people have gotten into trouble with these days:
penicillin
And by “trouble” I mean “too fucked up to tell the search box from the spout box” of course. But oh! I’m no pharmacy. Nor am I a citrus-peel fungus! But I’m still gazing wistfully at […]
Now tell me, Dearest Readers, what kinds of meat you’ve been eating lately:

In the ongoing saga of how Google brings you into serendipitous contact with the fluffy blanket infinity of the universe… a while back someone typed the name of an old compatriot into the spout box.

Hiding in my inbox for a month, these have been. And glorious fragments of wisdom they are too:
i like dogs
Have I mentioned how the office dog is growing more and more neurotic? He’s not in most days anymore, but boy does he ever bark at shadows when he is.
i like cats too
Sadly, there are no […]
This is by way of an “I oughta post” post, because I was in the mountains most of last week and will be in Iowa most of this week, and I spent most of this evening mulching and planting (the other surviving watermelon seedling, an eggplant, and some thyme, and I hope I can curb […]
Someone is pointing fingers:
jocelyn wertz
Yes, she is awesome and we have the same birthday but I haven’t seen her for years! Are you stalking her, mchsi.com? I can’t help you with that.
Update 13 Apr: hmm, maybe I can help you with that. But first you have to answer just one question: Dude, what the shit?
Anyone […]
And here we have mail from a few people who know where a few of my buttons lie, and a few more people who don’t:
i love olivine
Button, button, who’s got the - DUDE OLIVINE IS AWESOME!!!1!* Someday I want to live in a house with rock walls made of peridotite. Doooooood.

I must say, I missed the spout box while it was gone. But the misplaced search queries do make me wonder:
