It’s All Christine’s Fault

This morning Christine reminded me of our night at the Dresden Doll’s concert…and about Gravity Plays Favorites.

They are phenomenal. With real woman bodies and sexy moves that make this girl drool (I think at the show I audibly gasped about every five seconds, with my little hands clasped at my heaving bosom), Katrina and […]

Spendy (So not about my marriage!)

Bought: Dresden Dolls debut cd.
It hasn’t arrived yet but I can’t wait. I can’t fucking wait for it. I didn’t buy the newest one because this one has “Missed Me” and “Coin-Operated Boy” on it. For Anne’s birthday we all went to the Dresden Dolls concert at the Pageant (with Gravity Plays […]

Time to Get Ill

I often feel like everywoman and sometimes like no woman I know. I am aware that the goings on inside my head are not unusual, not atypical, not unique since this is a girl who studies art and history for a living. I see things in pictures that tell me, oy, the human […]

I say, “Motherfuckermoveitohmygodwhatinthedevilsnameiswrongwithyou!” It just gives a […]

Truthiness Sucks

There has been twittering around town about my martial problems and this blog. Okay, so the twittering is basically coming from inside my house, from my spouse, but whatever.
I feel pressured to tell you all, I am probably not worthy of the kindness you have shown me.
I am a bad wife. […]

Night One: God I Miss the Interwebs

Last night, I moved back to my mom’s. I’m sure the moment I walked in the door, my grandmother sat straight up in bed, elbowed my papa in the ribs and said, “Melissa just moved back home, right this very minute.”
I not so much moved back as I took an overnight bag […]

Moving Shit Around

I never expected this. A thousand times I’ve expected this.
But either way, here we are.
The boys and I are moving back to my mama’s house.
My mother is insane, fun, difficult to explain, loves questionable men (and not in the fun way), drinks her dinner every night, and loves the absolute hell out […]

After months and months…

A new Art of Motherhood is up.
Now, yes, we’re having serious problems. Like every marriage, these problems aren’t new but have been brought to the forefront and we have no choice but to deal with them full-force right now.

Ovary Pink

First things first. Thank you. Each and every comment and email has been read, cried over, and loved. I will get back to you, but I just have to thank you now. Thank you.
I have a new cell phone.
Which means that I had to haul my ass to the […]
