fuelgrannie and Penelope fireworks!

Penelope Friday, July 3, 2020 8:33pm Hi, How about we talk privately. Penelope Me Saturday, July 4, 2020, 7:50am Go ahead. I’m […]

“This Person Just Schlepped”
Guilty as charged, Ben Carlos Thypin. I did indeed “just schlep all the way from LIC” on January 23, 2020 to attend and address Manhattan Community Board 2: but it wasn’t to “just shit all over Open New York.” And it certainly wasn’t much of a “schlep,” either, Mr. Thypin: it’s ackshually called a “direct […]

Van Goner
January 21, 2020: Citing personal reasons in a statement released this morning, Jimmy Van Bramer announces he is dropping out of the Queens Borough President race. At last week’s Queens BP forum in Sunnyside, there was no hint of such trouble while Van Bramer scuffled enthusiastically with Queens Machine darling Donovan Richards over Amazon, bail […]

Back
Twitter has compelled me back to blogging and I am psyched to be back: it had been on my mind for some time to return and get back to public longform prose. For the past half-decade or so, I have been working on two memoirs, various essays, and a few published articles but much of […]

January 2, 2015: Soup for Dayz, Day 2
Happy official New Year, my angels! Hope you rang it in exactly as you wanted (I was in bed at 10pm, per my usual NYE routine: rockstar) and here’s to 2015 being a year which brings you strength, joy, clarity and continued health. Always be grateful for what you have and who you are. And […]

Wednesday, December 31, 2014: Soup For Dayz, Day 1
This is the recipe for what I basically live on: it’s a hearty, vegetarian, salt-free stock with which I create meals. It’s cheap and healthy (xactly: just like me) and no-fail (yup: not like me at all). Even though I am providing some sort of a concrete process for the base, it, as well as […]

Tuesday, December 30, 2014: Jesus Christ on Wheels
I geeked out over the sunset yesterday. And I may do it again today: second day here at my coolbeans temp gig, with three huge windows behind me plus it’s another slow day at the office, kids. As I write, glorious upon mcglorious roiling clouds are foaming up the New York skyline and, as this […]

Monday, December 29, 2014: Temping, Blogging, Hungry and Halves
I’m temping this week in a quiet office; I am filling in for the vacationing receptionist. It’s a beautiful day here in NYC: it’s New Year’s week so the city, or at least the office workforce city, is more calm and unpeopled than usual. I haven’t blogged at all in the past month, even though […]

Tuesday, November 18, 2014: Master Cleansification and Anniversaries Today
I AM EASING my flabbo caboose back again into the Master Cleanse. I need to. I have been indulging a lot lately and although it’s certainly all been worth it, every bite and quaff, I need to take a break. I’ve been so out of control lately, my clothes are tight. It will be good to pause, […]

Thursday, November 13, 2014: SigNotUre and Initials
I GOT MY new SAG/AFTRA membership card in the mail today. It’s always an issue when I have to write my brontosaurus signature on the back of any new plastic card, membership, credit or otherwise. I end up practicing on the back of a piece of paper I’ve already lined up for shredding: on it, I execute […]

Monday, November 10, 2014: Live Tweeting Gotham, Denying Self of Beer and Ice Cream and a Plus-Sized Love Triangle on Judge Judy
MAYBE one day I will actually post a Monday entry on a Monday night. Not tonight. It’s already tomorrow afternoon. LIVE tweeting is a challenge, especially for a meticulous slowpoke like me (hi, it’s Tuesday): I’m a tippy-tap typer to begin with (I correct via the backspace button, like a lab rat pressing for more […]
