Ron (a twin in the horde) made this today and sent it to me. Getting the twins cell phones for their birthday appears to have unintended benefits. Or consequences. Both, really. I present "For Fucks Sake Minerva" aka Minerva, aka FFS Minerva. Um, it's possible I use that phrase too often or don't even realize… Continue reading How I Discovered Minerva’s Full Name

fAngus: Destroyer of Worlds (and cords)
I present: a series of reasons why I'm not allowed to have nice things, brought to you by a cat who's been incarcerated in my house for the last three years and occasionally reminds me he'll eat my eyeballs first when I die. Destruction, wrapped in fluff. You clearly have too much screen time, and… Continue reading fAngus: Destroyer of Worlds (and cords)
A Friday Morning Drama in 5 Parts
I see you gave up your "healthy eating" bullshit and decided to get Starbucks today. I like the ham on those sandwiches too, you know. ALSO I'M STARVING TO DEATH HERE. HEY I like wrappers!

Second, this week a year ago I was in between the end of my Red Devil chemo treatments and the beginning of Taxol. If you have been around… Continue reading Today Is World Cancer Day – Get Your Bits Checked
Spamcation
I'm on vacation. I'm supposed to be in Cocoa Beach, but Covid is an asshole so I'm home instead, working on the Banshee book and ignoring the puppy gleefully chewing on my dirty clothes pile. Sigh. I suppose I should do something about it before Minerva swallows a sock and has yet another cone-venture. Great… Continue reading Spamcation
My Name is Minerva. This House is Mine.
A couple of days ago, I was hanging out with my brothers and sisters and some other dogs, when my super favorite human, Angie, introduced me to an obnoxiously HUGE dog and some weird tall lady. I was pretty nervous: I've only been alive for 11 weeks, and that dog was big and scary looking,… Continue reading My Name is Minerva. This House is Mine.
