Myth Me Musings (30?): A Mass With No Music

Schnappi and I have started going to a new mass every week.  I do want to find a new spiritual home, she’s game for the journey, and there’s show research to be done.  We started out a couple weeks ago with Our Lady of Lourdes.  Now, this is a church I’ve had my eye on [...]

They said I had to blog

So I am.
I sent Schnappi the following text last night at 10:03:

Oh Tony.

A few years ago, Karen gave me the book Round Ireland With a Fridge for my birthday.  It was quickly passed on to just about everyone I know, which has since caused Nancy to have coughing fits due to extreme laughter and a German medical clinic to think my mom needed to be checked into [...]

Myth Me Musings (26?): I need a new title

I decided that I don’t like Myth Me.  The show is starting to turn away from the original concept of rewriting old folkstories / biblical ones with my own life, ala The Woman Warrior, and so I’m not sure it fits any more.  I’d like to go back to the I Hate [insert person here], [...]

No, it’s not the measles

I was cooking dinner the other night.  Hamburger in a small frying pan.  Too much olive oil in the pan.  I was holding the pan with my left hand, and trying to cut the burger over with the spatula (plastic, so not sharp) with my right, and the next thing I know the meat slipped [...]
