Sick
January 20, 2020
Like most mornings, I woke up tired but unlike more recent mornings felt motivated. Since it was going to be a shit snow Saturday, I decided I would drive to my best friend Jimmy’s house to be snowed and watch some movies, do some writing, and then run errands, more writing and gigs on Sunday.

Bring Home The Bacon (In The Future)
January 16, 2020
About a month ago or so, the emcee of the show I was doing introduced me and I took the stage, for what would be a good set and a reminder of why I love comedy so much and am sticking to it, despite fears of impending doom. People who’ve never done performance art might

Just Call Me Angel
January 6, 2020
It’s a big house, and quite lovely, the new Floridian home of our adopted Aunt/Fairy Godmother, with a kitchen that looks like it could be the set of a cooking show. This was early 2019, when my sister still lived down in Florida, before she’d move back North with her family. Her kids, my nephew

The Roaring 20’s
January 1, 2020
For the end of 2019, I was invited to two Roaring 20’s parties, neither of which I went to, not because they are a themed party, but that’s sure not to help. I suspect a lot of people romanticize the 20’s for the same reason people think Long Islander’s are drunk drivers… because of F.

The Days Get Lighter
December 28, 2019
Yet again, we survived the darkest days of the year— in the literal sense (if you’re reading this, I assume you’re not dead, if you are dead and reading this, DM me, I’ve got a lot of questions) with the help of song, colorful lights, cups of tea and eating cookies while watching cartoons in

The Real Little Mermaid Kills Herself
December 18, 2019
Slowly but surely, I’m learning the importance of titles, and how they’re the initial hook for your story. This title is a spoiler. But if you didn’t know the original ending to “The Little Mermaid,” first published in 1831,that’s on you. Most original Disney movies are based on old fairy tales, that are usually extremely

Why Is It Good (Part II)
December 10, 2019
The violin is my favorite instrument, and no, not because I once briefly played it (to say I “played” the violin would be generous). In elementary school in our school system, kids were assigned an instrument to learn that they would then continue into middle school for band or orchestra. Choosing an instrument wasn’t

Why Is It Good (Part I)
December 8, 2019
In middle school, the music teacher/choir instructor was this ridiculously sweet woman, Mrs. K. Just to give you an idea of her kindness, one time, in music class, one of my best friends and neighbor, Wesley, was nodding off at his desk. Mrs. K called on him, asking if he was okay. Wesley, a fair

Kidnapping & Beds
November 25, 2019
I know that title sounds dirty, if not disturbing. This won’t be (well… maybe a little? I don’t know I can’t tell what people find disturbing anymore). However, if something is especially dark (or especially sexual), I usually caution my family not to read, which, of course, they don’t listen and then tell me I

Going To School Like This
November 18, 2019
In the continuing tales of my youth, comes a memory of laughing in the face of dread. While I was a good student, I didn’t much care for going to school. Often, at the end of summer vacations, I sobbed (quietly, as you’d be mocked for crying) in my bed clutching a stuffed baby seal
