Going Nowhere Fast

Going Nowhere Fast

I stopped at the gas station for coffee this morning, on my way to work. When I returned to my car, I found that it was parked in by a diesel tanker that was delivering fuel. Fun times!

This Is Not Africa

Don't Do This

No, it is not, boys and girls. What this is is an excellent example of why we do not paint latex over oils. It is one of my two bathroom walls that are peeling. Also the bathroom ceiling. Also the bathroom, bedroom, and front doors, both inside and out. (I did not perpetrate this disaster; some previous tenant did. But I do get to live with the aftermath. Joy.)

Chocolate

I admit that I bought this particular candy bar because I liked the wrapper. So I guess that’s a marketing win.

Three Little Pigs

3 Little Pigs

ALSO! Remember this book of found poetry? I ordered another volume of Very Bad Poems by the same author. When it arrives, there will be much cutting and rearranging and frankenpoeming. (Yes, that’s a word. I just made it up.) Also, there will be arting.
