The Angry Reporter: December 2013
http://angryreporter.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Bullshit Is My Enemy.". Tuesday, December 31, 2013. For me, 2013 felt like a year in exile. Having lost my apartment to Hurricane Sandy in 2012, I’d been living at the family beach compound, paying rent, eking out a meager existence. Over 80 percent of my belongings that survived the storm have been in storage for the last 13 months. So 2013 was limbo. A transient state of existence. I feel like I should be moving on, pulling up stakes and exploring whatever’s over the horizon. So let’s crank this ...

The Angry Reporter: My Old T-Shirt Collection
http://angryreporter.blogspot.com/2014/07/my-old-t-shirt-collection.html
Bullshit Is My Enemy.". Thursday, July 10, 2014. My Old T-Shirt Collection. Rummaging through my parent's house, I discovered a few tattered T-shirts from a bygone era (the 1990s). Yes, I like wearing comfortable cotton T-shirts. Always have. Yet with the passing years, tastes as well as styles inevitably change. What a young, lusty rake finds desirable and fashionable, the middle aged man ridicules, tosses his head heavenward and barks "What ever was I thinking? One of the tamest shirts I owned, a simpl...

The Angry Reporter: Smuttynose RIP
http://angryreporter.blogspot.com/2014/11/smuttynose-rip.html
Bullshit Is My Enemy.". Wednesday, November 12, 2014. My cat Smuttynose, a.k.a. Smutty, Smutters, Nosey, Noser, Tigger, Fluffyface, Winkins, Scion of Evil, and Elnie’s Baby, died on Nov. 1. During my separation, Smuttynose came to live with me in my shitty (former). Apartment. He stood by me, all whiskers and fluffy paws, through divorce, moving, evacuation from Hurricane Sandy and moving again. He was the King of Kitties. But even kings are not incorruptible to the crushing forces of time. Smuttynose em...

A Mercurial Nature: October 2008
http://amercurialnature.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Friday, October 31, 2008. My little one turned two. My little one being Piper, of course, because I don't actually have any human littles ones yet. All the same, today was Piper's birthday! Well, yesterday, really - Oct. 30.) She turned two, and I've been told over these past couple years that a dog is in "puppy" mode until they hit two, so I'm looking forward to waking up tomorrow with a very well mannered, friendly little pooch. Don't worry, though - I'm not holding my breath. Fans poured out of bars, ...

A Mercurial Nature: July 2008
http://amercurialnature.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 25, 2008. I made cupcake pops! I was inspired by Jiv5932's post on craftster and, in extension, her inspiration at Bakerella.blogspot.com. It was a very long process, but I'm pretty happy with the results. And all I've gotten are rave reviews, which must be a good thing, right? I'm still torn on whether or not all of the time and effort is really worth it for thirty-some pops, but in any case it was a lot of fun and they turned out nearly as expected! Tuesday, July 22, 2008. The past few wee...

Just the same, Kim tagged me for this and I figured. why not? 8 Things I Am Looking Forward To. 1) Ocean City's Spring Block Party next weekend. 2) My week off of work in June. 3) First Phillies game of the season! 4) Starting Piper's obedience classes. 5) My next scone at Fourth and First. 6) Returning to healthy eating and exercise.

A Mercurial Nature: Easter Egging
http://amercurialnature.blogspot.com/2009/04/easter-egging.html
Friday, April 3, 2009. I went over to Stef and Bill's tonight to dye Easter eggs. I haven't dyed eggs in a few years, so it was a lot of fun. Even though Salem is only 2, he did a great job and we only suffered one egg casualty (turns out no matter how tiny the hands, the squeezing of eggs is always a bad idea).
