I spent sixteen long years pining for home in the relative safety of the Bay Area. I lived stupidly there, not locking my back door, not watching my back, not worried about much of anything when I was coming home late at night. A policeman told me that I was foolish, that crime seeks opportunity. And so I changed my ways. I wanted to come home, and I did. But what about here in New…
January 24th is Tatiana’s Day in Russia and celebrated in Eastern Europe as well. How fitting that Saint Tatiana was the patron saint of students, considering T is director of the newbies at school.
January 25, 2009 Right now, I am still and know that I am a powerful co-creator. All my dreams are within my grasp. I see them; I feel them; I live them. I am grateful.
This is our protection here. We could get geese as they say noise is the biggest deterrent against crime, but dogs are just more fun.
Friends came for dinner last night and were quite alarmed about the rash of crime that has erupted in our neighborhood. They live uptown and one couple brought a visiting friend from El Lay. I told them that this is relatively a safe neighborhood and they have more to fear Uptown in the Isle of Denial than here because this seems to be the work of one psychotic. Well turns out the police were able…
There has been a string of emails flying about the sexual predator and now the car jacker, both brazen criminals and while I’m writing about them and reading about them, I hear the guy across the bayou playing his bagpipes – a peaceful sound against the backdrop of nonsense violence.

Description: 5’8″-5’10” black male with light brown complexion short hair thin 18-20 years old will have a significant injury to his left thumb may possibly have white paint on his foot as…
One thing I learned when I was going through behavior modification for my panic attacks is to stop and take a victory lap when you achieve something you have been striving for or even for little things that happen in your life. So here is the end of the week victory lap: 1) Managed to get fingerprinted for the adoption even though it required going to east hell. 2) Took time from work to watch…
Well in these days of fiscal responsibility, Ms. Wolfie is proving to be an expensive little tart. She had all her vaccines and xrays and such today and a big big bath. But turns out she has heartworms – we sent off for a more positive test but most probably she does. Which means, about $700 to $1000 in treatment. But you look in her eyes and she says I’m worth it. Whatyagonnado? So Wolfie…
All along the lagoon in City Park are signs that say NO FISHING as the park wants to repopulate for a Bass Fishing Rodeo that is coming up end of March. Only pelicans can’t read, so while a few months ago it was man against fowl in competition for these tasty finned creatures, now fowl is winning by a long shot. This morning, a swarm of pelicans, both white and brown, were shucking and diving…
