I've been gone. It's been bad.
There was a relationship. And a break up. A bad, bad, bad... bad, bad, baaad break up. And lots of drinking. There was also moving twice, and losing two family members, and getting another tattoo, and a couple more piercings, and losing a couple piercings, and spraining an ankle, and having a birthday, and making new friends, and honestly - no, honestly - laughing more often then crying.
Maybe I'll do this again. The vox, I mean. Definitely not doing the last six months again.
Going home to Philadelphia for a few days to see everyone I love in the world. Yippie! Have a good holiday, boys and girls.
Show us something you hold dear.

More than anything or anyone else in the world. Lula Dog, always.
When my ex-husband moved out, I told him that I'd kill him in his sleep before I let him take her. You think I'm kidding?
Joy is waking up to find Lula has snuck under the covers while I was sleeping and has her face next to mine, snoring softly.
It's love, knowing that she wanted to be near me; that she wrestled to get under the covers and next to my body; that she tucked her nose under my chin; that she puts her paw on my arm when I go to get up out of bed.
For some reason, the last four nights I've woken up at four a.m. on the dot. Ka-ree-hee-pee. I've also been dreaming about wandering inside tall, old, dark buildings.
Some how, that makes perfect sense to me.
Today, I went to the courthouse for the petition hearing on my divorce. After the hearing - which only took ten minutes - I stepped outside and cried. Not because the marriage isn't truly "irretrievable," but just because I never wanted this for myself or him or us.
Dumped and divorced in the span of three days, I don't have much faith in Love anymore.
Tonight, friends are taking me to see Kaki King. I'll be the curmudgeonly divorcee with the black glasses and Bettie Page bangs, scowling at anything with a penis.
This is one of the best love songs ever written, and one of my favorite tunes. Makes me cry every time. And the video is just great.
(p.s. the insomnia rides on!)
