Neko Case at The Grand | Orange & a Deep Blue Iris
https://deepblueiris.wordpress.com/2015/06/15/neko-case-at-the-grand
Orange and a Deep Blue Iris. Making sense of absurdity by writing through it. Neko Case at The Grand. Respectfully taken, without disturbing the couple nearby. We were told “no flash,” but it turned out the request was actually “no photos whatsoever.” This one was captured before the mandate was delivered. Apologies, sincerely. Ah, Ms. Case. Ever since I bought tickets to your show at The Grand Opera House. You remember, that time at Solid Sound in 2013. And I knew you would not disappoint. I heard an in...

Victorious | Orange & a Deep Blue Iris
https://deepblueiris.wordpress.com/2015/03/27/victorious
Orange and a Deep Blue Iris. Making sense of absurdity by writing through it. My move happened a day early, due to an impending snowstorm. We made it work, and on the first day of Spring, met our neighbors while shoveling snow from the driveway. So, we have a pretty cool moving story to begin the book of memories we’ll create in our new home. Our new back yard, the day we were supposed to move. The boxes are being emptied and removed bit by bit, I found a great walking route this morning, my guy has prov...

So. Much. Noise. | Orange & a Deep Blue Iris
https://deepblueiris.wordpress.com/2015/07/08/so-much-noise
Orange and a Deep Blue Iris. Making sense of absurdity by writing through it. So Much. Noise. Facebooking is still a favorite pastime, because I enjoy connecting with friends and family from all over the country. It’s fun to realize commonalities, reconnect with old friends, make new ones, and have witty barroom-style conversation from my keyboard, where I am much more eloquent and quick-witted than in real life. But, oh, the noise. So much is happening in the world right now! July 8, 2015. Mr Baby →.

Orange and a Deep Blue Iris. Making sense of absurdity by writing through it. Mr Baby faces the world with a healthy level of skepticism. Over, for both of our benefits. Like any new adventure, you can plan, make sure you’ve got all the necessary equipment, and think ahead about how best to navigate the obstacles and challenges you’ll meet. But, ultimately, you just have to begin. This entry was posted in baby. June 14, 2016. So Much. Noise. This entry was posted in change. July 8, 2015. Respectfully tak...

Upheaval | Orange & a Deep Blue Iris
https://deepblueiris.wordpress.com/2015/03/26/upheaval
Orange and a Deep Blue Iris. Making sense of absurdity by writing through it. I am moving next week for the first time since 2004.* This is a happy thing and an exciting time dampened only by the humiliation and judgment that accompany accepting financial help from a family member. Otherwise, yay! Reposted One Post Wonder update from March 10, 2015. I found a safe and welcoming place that got me writing again; I hope you won’t mind that I’m housing the content here as well. March 26, 2015. You are commen...

Little Kindnesses | Orange & a Deep Blue Iris
https://deepblueiris.wordpress.com/2014/05/15/little-kindnesses
Orange and a Deep Blue Iris. Making sense of absurdity by writing through it. Their first walk as husband and wife. Photo courtesy Beth McAdoo. This past weekend, I had the honor of seeing two people I care about get married. It’s no secret that these two really have it together, as a couple and individually. And let me tell you, theirs were the best (and by best, I mean most realistic) vows I’ve ever heard. And while statistics point to the odds being against lasting love, I think it exists. I’ve se...
