No, Seriously. Ever since reading this article in the March issue of The Ecologist, I can't stop thinking about electromagnetic radiation and how it effects us. It's a terrifying and fascinating subject to ponder, because not only is this technology very new and fairly un-regulated, but it's becoming so widespread that it's almost impossible to … Continue reading WiFi Is Bad For You

Carrot’s Gluten-Free Buckwheat Yogurt Muffins
So, yesterday I made a batch of these muffins, here in Portland where I'm staying with some friends, and I realized that they really are my very favorite gluten-free muffins. They're so super-most and not overly sweet, and also really nutritious, so they make you feel like you've actually eaten food, not just some baked-good … Continue reading Carrot’s Gluten-Free Buckwheat Yogurt Muffins
Greta Garbo, Freest Cat There Ever Was
On Monday I left my job in the woods, drove two hours, and got a new job at a hot-springs resort on the other side of the mountain. I showed up and parked my car in the dusty lot, looked at the trees around me. It was drier here. I'd never been to this place, … Continue reading Greta Garbo, Freest Cat There Ever Was
I got a blog award!
From Hobo Stripper- because she likes my blog. The award looks like this-and I'm not sure what it means. And neither did HoboStripper, when she got it. It's sort of interesting that way- a trinket wrapped in obscurity, regifted all over the internet. But she likes my blog and now I get to give the … Continue reading I got a blog award!
Tall Men With Beards
In an email to a friend-I had a dream last night that I had a straight boyfriend, and he was tall and bearded and I liked him very, very much. He wasn't much of a talker and he smelled like an old plaid sleeping bag, the kind that zips down the side and folds into … Continue reading Tall Men With Beards

The Hole
There's a hole in my mouth, a bottomless portal, that leads I do not know where. The dentist opened it up with his subtle knife and neglected to close it up again, and now I am stuck with this swirling vortex in my jaw, which turns round and round and sucks in food particles, if … Continue reading The Hole

Mouse-Eaten Book Reviews
When I live in the country, I become totally obsessed with celebrity gossip. It’s like an addiction that waits just under the surface. It breaks out when I am away from concrete and chainlink fences and peeling paint, car exhaust and traffic sounds. When I am away from dance clubs, fashion, and performance.I miss the … Continue reading Mouse-Eaten Book Reviews
