Those of you who follow this blog recognize my house in this picture on the vine side, the end of a Victorian row of 4 houses.

DEMONIC SLEEP APNEA MASK – CPAP CAN BE CCRAP!

Saturday August 28th, 2010 in Uncategorized

I need more sleep than most. 8 hours doesn’t cut it. 10 hrs is more likely. BUT with my deviated septum, I need a mask, called CPAP, so I can keep breathing while I sleep. (That’s the little demonically-possessed item in the picture. It fits around your nose). This is a Fisher & Paykel [...]

LOUISA MAY ALCOTT IN 2010

Saturday August 21st, 2010 in Uncategorized

Quarreled with this biog throughout the read. Great to have it so soon after John Matteson’s study. The two books complement each other though I kept returning to Matteson as the definitive final say. Too many attempts to psychoanalyze Bronson and family members, including a discussion of whether or not he has a ‘homo-erotic [...]

ORIGAMI FOR BEGINNERS – GREAT BIZARRO CARTOON!

Friday August 20th, 2010 in Uncategorized

Okay, it isn’t lying flat and I’ve creased it. The title is: ORIGAMI FOR BEGINNERS. It show the origami paper lying flat (rug), straight up & down (door) and lying tilted (ramp). This cartoonist is always consistently funny. Now I’ll go remind myself of his name and put it in here. Aha! DAN PIRARO. I [...]

There’s also Morning Has Broken and all the other songs praising the start of a new day, a new chance at getting it right this time, all that potential we call ‘time’ that doesn’t actually exist.
“Whatta ya doin’? Standin’ in the middle of the street at THIS hour?’ my tenant calls to me, [...]

Grey sky, wind whipping up, garden wailing something of its own composition. Science says all nature has a voice, a sound, if we know how to listen. Thoreau knew.

CLINIC – PART 2

Friday August 6th, 2010 in Uncategorized

Yesterday I went to see this near-mythologized doctor (he’d blown up in my mind over the years to less than human) – and here he was, courteous, semi-retired and getting on with the paperwork. No memory of me, at least at first.
My husband reminded me when I got home that this was [...]

CITY BIRD CATEGORY?

Wednesday August 4th, 2010 in Uncategorized

If nations and provinces can identify a bird as representing them, then cities should be able to as well. I opt for the tough-guy sparrows muscling their way into crumbs, barely hopping aside when the feet of passersby stomp down the street. Everyday after my work at the downtown Kingston Community Credit Union, I [...]
