I was in the room when... a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world, but a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic...

NAKED DAVE IS DEAD. And if you know nothing of La Molina and the tale of Naked Dave, then even the name "Naked Dave" may mean nothing to you. For while the obit for the creator of the Rocketeer character tells us a few things about Dave Stevens, it...

Mechanical Pussy

Categorized under Humor , Stories | Tags: I should tag this something, My Life

SUDDENLY I realize that I have not, in fact, been hearing a mewling cat somewhere outside my window since the dark predawn hours. Yes, suddenly I realize that I must have forgotten that recently I picked the "mewling cat" sound as an alert for my RSS feeder. So I'm very...

The (ALL NEW) War on Anger

Categorized under Stories | Tags: satire

IT OCCURS TO ME that we may not be going deep enough with our War on Terror. I was thinking, yesterday, as I waited for the man ahead of me in line to finish sighing and giving nasty looks at the woman in front of us (who was taking,...

blackbird gasoline

Categorized under Stories | Tags:

IT IS A MOMENT DRENCHED in foreshadowing. I feel it immediately upon me, as if the wind has quieted down for this very reason. The sun is floating behind my back, staring as if lost in thought. Overhead, the hot blue is sliced into odd rectangles of sky. Telephone...

Excursions

Categorized under Parenting , Stories | Tags: My Life

IT'S JUST ME AND LIL 'NITA for usually about a quarter to a third of a day, and sometimes, all day. She's a lot of fun to watch as she begins to find the many pieces of the world, as she assigns meaning to them, as she responds emotionally...

966 Bees in the Shade

Categorized under Ciencia , Stories | Tags: Bees

WHOA. Maybe colonies of bees move around this time of year, and I'm unfamiliar with the whole idea. But I just had quite an exciting moment. I remember when I was about 10, and there was all this talk of Killer Bees from Africa that might land on our...

Why We Do

Categorized under Blogando , Corazón , Stories | Tags: Adoption, familia, Hope

ONE OF THE BLOGS I used to read one day sported an essay that essentially summed up the author's ongoing growing feelings that—in his opinion—blogs don't achieve much of anything and that the writer felt his blogging time only ate up time they could be using for other more...

How to Create a Rape Victim

Categorized under Parenting , Stories | Tags: derechos de mujeres, Soul of the World

Update 2009: This post was controversial. Or perhaps just the title. Some felt my poetic use of the title How To Create A Rape Victim ultimately points blame at a woman for being raped by harshly reminding parents not to trod over their childrens' sense of boundaries and right to...

icebergs and gold

Categorized under Stories | Tags:

BRENDA WAS DANGEROUS and I knew that after only a few hours of hearing her speak. A theme that kept peeking through her rants was the assertion that almost everyone she had the slightest reason to dislike had a nasty, cruel, evil core that would show if you only scraped...
