Hello, people of Plazm… On February 24, our friends at PICA are very kindly putting on an event for Josh due to his bike accident, with help from many wonderful friends and compatriots. We hope you’ll come. There’ll be art from 100 artists and designers, from Milton Glaser to Storm Tharp to Kristy Edmunds, with […]

Mr. Pinchy has a wounded toe or foot or something. The vet believes it is a sprained or fractured pinky toe but the only way to be sure is an $80 x-ray. “If it’s broken, do we treat it differently than if it’s sprained?” “No.” So we forewent the x-ray and have contented ourselves with […]

You guys. I just posted an epic, brutal situation over at ADVICE. I’m scared I gave bad advice. Please go over there and weigh in, if you have a differing opinion, or the same opinion. That person needs a game plan, stat! GAME PLANS So important to have one. I’m making one right now. Here […]

I need ‘friend in an abusive relationship with a crazy person’-level advice–sorry for the wall of text, but this one is heavy. One of my husband’s best friends (and my good friend) from college is a sweet and passive dude who has seriously a horrible track record in relationships. While we were in college, he […]

I had an ongoing zombie nightmare last night, but with the added twist of its not being really scary, more like watching-a-movie scary. I kept rising vaguely to consciousness but then thinking “no, I want to see what happens to me in that dream I’m having” and I’d go back into it. There was a […]

on Wednesday after work my feet hurt so bad, due to being out of high-heel shape due to winter break. My feet hurt so bad, I could barely stagger down the hill to my car. On the drive home, feet aching, I was fantasizing about taking my shoes off before going into New Seasons for […]

I think I’m pretty bad at the internet. At “surfing” it, I mean. I remember in college when the internet was first a thing, I’d always see Steve at the computer lab in the library and he’d be “surfing the web” and I didn’t get what that really meant. I think I remember one time […]

I originally began writing a follow up to Pre-snip ramblings just hours after going through with the procedure, but it turns out that a lot of Vicodin will kill your writing motivation. Apparently, it killed it for a few weeks and once I returned to life, I’ve been struggling to find the mental (and emotional) […]

Due to cool factors in somebody else’s interesting life, I and some loved ones got taken out on the town last night by a very nice person with an expense account, and I ate at a fancy restaurant and people ordered wine like they knew what they were talking about, and the wine was really […]

“4 homeless people die in what girlfriend refers to as ‘cuddle weather’” THAT’S ME. I am an asshole. Well, we had an intense week that I can’t really talk about because it involved job interviews. Just know that it was intense, and our house was fully destroyed both in the sense that we were both […]
