Definition of a Loser
In Little Miss Sunshine – Alan Arkin says “a loser is someone who fears he might not succeed so he never tries.” How appropriate.

I love it when a plan comes together
R showed up this morning and put the two new windows into the master bathroom – Loewen wood awning windows with screens. Perfect. I can’t tell you the mental masturbation that has gone into replacing the windows – good lord. Meanwhile, I went over to the LaLa to meet R early and then spent my time cleaning up the whole place. Midmorning, T came by and looked around – I forget how tall he is…

Now you know
AA called last night as I was lying in bed and said she had gone on a date with L, who I met at the Hoe Down, when I was there. I asked her how it went and she said, eh. I told her I had this giant realization today – I love being single. I also went over some recent episodes where A was having trouble getting away from D and another friend was…

Girlfriends Rule, Boys Drool
G and I snuck to the porch for a little bit of girltime – I don’t know what, but I had to leave – I had enough chit chat -I KNOW – HARD TO BELIEVE – J and I came to a good understanding on the phone after our spat yesterday about gender pay – and I don’t know – K called to say he is making a collage and could I give him some…

If you don’t love my ziti I’d have to kill you
We passed a good time, yeah – the ziti was the best even though I tripled what I normally cook. T came and in his own complicated way complicated me, and then A was there with C, like the perfume, L was there but he only had one hour of sleep after having sex most of the night with his new squeeze, and G was trying to figure out B, and you know what –…

Nick, the rat
I saw Nick today, he was under all the garbage that Joe was putting in the back of Big Blue – Joe wanted to kill him, but I couldn’t do it, he’s a living creature. I kind of wanted to kill him too. He’s a rat after all. But the better part of me didn’t.

No one wants to take responsibility for the terrace
The terrace off of my office is a big mind fuck – it needs to be waterproofed and Bud said that his stuff was waterproof, but the manufacturer doesn’t guarantee it as waterproof so now K says he could put a rubber mat and/or Twickler can put a torch down (kind of like a roof) and then the deck on top – but the deck will free float and so there is the idea of…

Skinny scared chihuahua and a big dose of guilt
This morning Gomez and I were walking around the bayou when D, who just moved to the neighborhood was walking Frankie (a good looking Katrina rescue dog) and she told us that there was a Katrina dog in the cemetery – a chihuahua – I looked at Gomez and said, uh uh, no way, I’m not rescuing a chihuahua. So D said in parting – you have to really love dogs to rescue a chihuahua…sigh….…

Smart Woman Dumb Pussy
Jill Soloway’s book “Tiny Ladies in Shiny Pants” is hysterical – she talks about her affinity for what she refers to as “Toolbelts” and “that pillow-show shit is one of the my Top Ten Most Hated Things in the World.” That is when people decorate their beds with five deep rows of assorted pillows. Really I am not getting any sleep wtih this book around. There are, like my friend SuSu suggested, many commonalities with…

August 31, 2006
My first date with Steve 16 years ago in San Francisco – we went to Olive Oil’s on the water – I remember we both ordered and never touched a bite – we were part of a threesome – Steve, Doug and I worked and lunched (read: margaritas) together often. Doug couldn’t go to lunch that day. (He ended up being my best man.) Steve and I were at the bar waiting for our table…
