Just before the world went splat and the idea of going to concerts became a thing of the past, we went to see Tanya Tucker. What a good show! Anyway, during the show, of course she sang “What’s Your Mamma’s Name, Child”. First, the song had its intended effect on me. Then, because I must …

There Are No Rules About Mental Distancing. Stop That!
I have been feeling anxious when out walking because I never feel like I can keep the six feet of distance. This is not helped by Shmans’s tendency to kind of buzz people as they go by. Sometimes she just scoots past them, and sometimes she has sniffed people in a moment of weakness. Either …

Blogging Moistly
lyrics are here. This song has been chasing me around since I heard it. Any time I hear someone cough, any time I cough and I think someone might have heard me, any time we get a note in our door, it shows up. So now you can all have it in your head too! …
How The Vomit Comet People Are Responding To COVID-19
Sorry…Too many emails… Lyrics here if you need them. So how are we doing? So far, we’re doing ok.

Corona Coraziness!
Wow, what a week. It has gone from “gee this virus is moving fast, maybe we should watch stuff” to “CANCEL EVERYTHING NOW!” The transition, although necessary, is a bit jarring. I am really really really happy I didn’t go to Anaheim. If I had, I’d be being asked to self-isolate now. All the shifting …
Let’s Get Ready To Rumble…If You Can
Many times I say I’m a weirdo. Now I know it for sure. I’m one of a small number of people who can make their ears rumble voluntarily! I can hear it now. “You can what?” Seriously. Ever since I was a kid I noticed that my ears made rumbling noises. I first noticed it …

Covid-19, You are causing A Scene, At This Moment, You Wrecked Everything…
This stupid Coronavirus is ruining all the things. I’m supposed to be getting on a plane to CSUN on Tuesday morning…but am I? Hell nooo! It’s not because I’m afraid of the virus per se.

So Long, Grandma Pye.
I have a long-standing dread of January. The month isn’t always miserable, but for the last 18 Januaries, more often than not, it has not been kind to me. Unfortunately, this last one has landed firmly in the not kind pile. My last grandparent, Grandma Pye, passed away. She was 96. When we were little, …
