All in FEELING FUNNY
Do you think flower-coaching can be a real thing?
[ 2 minute read ]
Because although it’s a short-lived endeavour – I seem to be pretty good at it
The problem with microdosing is that before too long you want another microdose

And I’m not talking about LSD or any other psychedelic acronym. As I’ve already said, no more of that for me thank you, but I’ll have another holiday, please, and make it a double. Also, on the double as in tout de suite, or even tout de smallish room as long as there’s a view
So now I can read minds
I don’t know how long this will take to read. It depends on how you are with near-lethal blasts of nostalgia, but since one person’s nostalgia is another person’s nonsense, you might be out of here in no time
I think I sprained my eyes last night

Do you remember when you used to make faces and your mom said if you didn’t stop, your face would stay that way? Well maybe it finally caught up with me because I’ve noticed lately that I’m a bit googley-eyed (fuck off spellcheck)
#19 / This is not a new feeling, but it’s rare, especially without tequila
[ 3 minute read ]
I have been a treading lightly kind of girl all along, mostly anyway, and I’m not sure if it’s the new coffee or the bodysuits or the blooming Irises out back or what – but it’s making me gallant, game, gritty and gutsy – which is what happens when you thesaurus.com/
a force to be reckoned with
#18.5 / One small vowel makes the difference between being goosed all day and being goosed only occasionally

So I said I wanted one of those bodysuit things. She must have heard me wrong because I discovered this morning, and too late, that it’s one of those bodysuit thongs
#18 / My trippy triptych of days edging up to the summer solstice
[ 3 minute read ]
I hope you are not on holiday but if you are, it might be a good idea to get out the board games, because I have been rain dancing. As I mentioned in my last post, I am assisting photographer Asa Mathat at this year’s ideacity conference and a cloudy sky means I just might be able to cope.
#17 / At the risk of sounding like you-know-who, some of my favourite things
[ 3 minute read ]
It’s raining in a nice way. Which is pretty easy to say from inside the house, looking into the backyard, where birds are hoppy and swoopy (autocorrect tried to get me to say happy and swanky but I’m standing firm), the grass is neon, and the evenings are stretching toward the solstice.
#16 / My shopping behaviour is either whimsical, or a result of the malt whiskey which has been in my system since birth

Sometimes I come to – as in enter consciousness – during a meeting, or at the very end of one, and my mind is completely, perfectly, and utterly blank. Nothing that’s been said has even gone in one ear.
#15 / Thank you for your divided attention

Why is everyone on this entire train pretending it’s fall?
#14 / Public transit foes and fumbles

Not eonverye can raed this this. Only polepe with a pulse.
#13 / Once again the old saying “there’s one in every crowd” means exactly me
[ 3 minute read and a gif! ]
How did I miss the boat again and so severely?
#12 / I am very sorry for my recent behaviour almost constantly
[ 2 minute read ]
Like right now. I’m sorry I made that headline because I’ve got other ideas already
#11 / Your friends are your super-powers
[ 3 minute read ]
But we’ll get to that after I talk about my new hat, which is also a super-power. Mostly.
#10 / Let’s see what this one will be about
[ 3 minute read ]
Planning is for cowards and pre-planning is for super-cowards. It’s just over-doing it.
#9 / Some teachers matter and are included when you count your lucky stars

I don’t know if you remember your public school years the way I remember mine, but let me tell you, I could write a book. It would be full of the things I thought were funny back then like anything fart-related.
#8 / We are all the same, only different
[ 3 minute read ]
Good ideas, or at least ideas that seem good, are what get me up in the morning, and I usually go straight to my laptop and type them in before I forget them. But this morning, I forgot my idea. I know what it wasn’t though, in case there are any consolation prizes.
#7 / Sometimes I forget how funny things are
[ 3 minute read ]
Like at three in the morning when I think about my four dollar avocado and whether it will make it through the night, where’s the cat, cheese (toasted mostly), my lines from The Pirates of Penzance when I was in grade seven, that stupid dress, where the third juggling ball went, etc.
