The Parents were gone for 24 hours. They went roaring out of the house in the middle of the night on Friday, and came back after one a.m. on Saturday – I mean Sunday morning.
The bird gets confused with the humans whole “time” thing. For me, it is morning, then it is afternoon, then it [...]

Summer is hard everywhere. My birthday is August 15th – when I try to find compassion, sympathy and understanding for my mother, what caused her to hate and abuse me, I figure she was not in the greatest spirits because she was in her last tri-mester in Summer, and flung me out in the dog [...]

Two days ago, maybe?
The only good thing about humidity is it makes your skin look absolutely fabulous. All of that moisture.
Otherwise, it is a misery, but the beauty is, summer only lasts for two months around here.
The forest that is our lot is so old, the leaves are really too big to fully understand when [...]

For those of you who read the other blogs, you are well aware that, starting March third of this year, I had a health issue that culminated in surgery to remove an unruly fallopian tube. The fancy name for it is serous cystadenofibroma, I call it organ misbehavior. The fallopian tube started growing [...]

There was a rabbit. He was running around in Koreatown, Los Angeles, where I was teaching English as as Second Language.
It was July 9th, ten months after my father, Bill Mahan, died. July 9th happened to be Bill’s birthday.
I saw all of the students, of every level, yelling in their native language and running around [...]

He was hopping around, when he saw this on my laptop.
It takes a mighty storm to scare Robert. I really have to stop with having certain politicians so easily accessible to my kids. Hide them in the porn closet, I guess.

It was time to mush on into the great unknown.

Arriving just in time for dinner.
One would not think it was possible to transport two cats and a crow across country, but I have to say, The Bob behaved better than most peoples human children. How many crows can say they stayed in seven motels and drove through ten states in the dead heat [...]
