Hey Pop Tart -Where Ya Been and Whatcha Been Doing?

The title of the post is one of my favorite lines from Sex and the City – said to Carrie by Aiden when they were living together in cramped quarters. I suppose today is as good a day as any to return to my blog. Where have I been and what have I been doing? [...]

My Dog Ate My Seatbelt

It finally happened. After however many months of driving around sans seatbelt, I got pulled over on Saturday. I don’t not wear my seatbelt to be cool or out of laziness. My dog ate it. Bella more specifically ate it. Seriously. That is no joke. It no longer works.  I’m also not one of these [...]

Way to Go City of Indianapolis

Great job City of Indianapolis! (dripping with sarcasm…) Mayor Elect Greg Ballard and Marion County prosecutor Carl Brizzi are “touring” the Phoenix Apartment slums today and are now promising to do something about the unlivable conditions and lawless, Wild West-like environment.  Why now? Why not 3 years ago? A high-profile, sickening abuse/murder case of a 3 year-old girl has finally [...]

Here We Go Again

I had coffee with Scott last week and we were talking about what might happen when the proposed constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage gets reintroduced in 2008.  I became aware and involved in the issue when I realized the horrible impact it would have on people who are close to me and the dangerous [...]
