I swear I thought it was only a month or two ago since I made my last non-Batman-related update. Oops. So, here’s why you haven’t heard from me save when I’ve been writing about men wearing rubber bat costumes: Life. I know, that’s broad. I’ve been writing as much as possible since school started back up…
G, the two-year-old, is watching Daniel Tiger’s Neighborhood‘s special “Snowflake Day,” a phenomenal special that is a way to be an all-inclusive winter holiday. The kids in the show put on a play that has the message that “friends are the best presents.” In the play, a little girl, played by Miss Elaina, is visited…
Here I am, peeking in just to say hi. Sadly, I broke the chain the other day, Thursday, September 4th. I was just too goddamn tired and depressed to really motivate myself to do the editing I needed to do. So between June 24th and September 3rd, I wrote every day, mostly on the novel.…
It’s 8:56 PM as I write these words. At this time next week, I will be tired after having gone to work for the first time since mid-June. I’m depressed. Now before you give me the Well, I work all year round, get two vacations, and have to work on weekends speech, please rest assured, I know…
My heart broke tonight. I’m devastated. One of my heroes is gone. About quarter past seven, I quickly went onto Facebook and the third status update read: Not Robin Williams. The next two were news stories. Dead, said the first. Dead, apparent suicide, said the other. I stopped then. “Oh no,” I said, voice cracking. “What? What’s wrong?” Pamela…

Having had parents that stayed together, I don’t know what it’s like to have to schlep between houses, between rules, between parenting styles. And…
Last year, I don’t remember when exactly, a piece about Jerry Seinfeld popped up on my Facebook wall that actually made me click the link. I don’t hate Seinfeld, I actually think he’s a goddamn funny guy, and I love his show Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee (which reminds me, there’s a new season I have to…
In the last two or three months, three people I’ve known have died, and I found out about a death of someone else I knew from back in 2012. It’s odd. The first death that blipped on my radar screen was a guy I went to elementary and junior high schools with. We weren’t close…
On April 20th, my mother sent me and my sister, Tracy, the following message on Facebook: Got some bad news a little while ago. Uncle Pete found out last week that he has lung cancer. He’ll be getting more tests and chemo starting this week. Auntie Pat said he’s having a hard time breathing. Dad’s…
