Game writer. GenXer. Snark and cheese, always. Recent widow, also recovering from child’s suicide. (Yeah. My shit’s fucked up.) 80s pop culture purist. Every day is Halloween. 🎃

The video game lady, not the comic book one, though she’s cool.
Hanging out with Balls the Cat.

I just found a Halloween present he’d gotten and hidden to give me and I hereby resign from Thursday, effective immediately. I will try to “person” again tomorrow even though I don’t know why and would prefer not to

Take all the practice tests to get used to what I’m talking about. 😉 You’ll get there! I, and this octopus, believe in you.

Then my son and I went to the NAMM show in 2017 and he went to find a bathroom and passed a guy all in black with blue glasses who he recognized but couldn’t place. I’m like…omg…did he look like this? And held up a picture on my phone (below). Son’s like yeah! That’s him! (Facepalm) 🤣

Those aren’t the kind of guys Trump gives pardons to. These are.

I inherited a pearl-inlaid Italian accordion in the box from 1929, which belonged to movie star Zelma O’Neal. With the original bill of sale made out to her. It’s in FL right now. I and my kids can’t store it safely. /1

FOR REAL THO. Now I want to save a picture of him just so I can have it as my answer.but that’s cheating, so:

Yeah. I’ll take it. If I can’t share Henry, sure. Moo Deng, it is.

The Man Who Floated Away

And they said that while the man and the plumber were under the house inspecting the situation, a cat paw kept popping out and smacking their hands. I guess SpookShow is an actual Attack Cat.

There are only 3 kinds of game writer. I will not explain.

This painting (taken yesterday) is now a comforting old friend. Who knew that some cheap mass-produced hotel painting, probably in hundreds of rooms all over the world, could have such importance. Thank you to this artist, whoever and wherever they are. And thank you to this Microtel for being here.

After my son died, my mom drove down to be with me, and stayed at room 107 of the local Microtel. On the wall there was a painting I stared at for so long that I took a picture of it.

Okay so bit of an explanation but I promise I have a point. 😅

We have an outside cat, Clarabelle.

Here’s the guy I showed him a picture of. 😂🤣

Anyway, yeah. That was a great time, a great day.

The U.S. Constitution has been removed from the official White House website. In case anyone remotely thought he intended to follow the thing.

Anyone else see Melania’s outfit and think of this guy?
