My morning commute (or how I miss Tacoma) |
I spotted Bigfoot today, as I was riding the bus to work. I was half-reading our local "alternative" rag and half day-dreaming about how writing for a local "alternative" rag, and having t... Posted by Rachel on Wed, 16 Apr 2008 10:57:00 PST |
On why sleeping is for the birds. |
I started my vacation this week. It's 12:30 in the am, and I'm not even tired. This may seem insignificant for most, but it's novel for me these days. It's daunting, actually. I know that my kid will ... Posted by Rachel on Fri, 28 Dec 2007 01:08:00 PST |
Yakima Mush Part Deux |
Tequilas Family Restaurant. Yakima, Washington. Converted traincars from the 60s? 70s? I'm sitting in a small booth covered in greige vinyl. Some old woman played Rummy here once, drinking Folgers and... Posted by Rachel on Thu, 20 Apr 2006 10:14:00 PST |
Apple Red Happiness, Popcorn Cheerfulness |

Spring Cleaning |
So, it's been brought to my attention that I'm a bit of a pack rat. Funny, I've always prided myself in being able to "let go" when necessary. It's also been pointed out that I am the Queen of Se... Posted by Rachel on Sat, 04 Feb 2006 05:50:00 PST |
The Swans and the Swimming |
Sometimes I feel as though I will always be alone. No matter what. But it doesn't make me sad anymore. I think of dusty attics and quiet, cold, mornings like Ive never known but always long for ... Posted by Rachel on Mon, 12 Dec 2005 12:06:00 PST |
Walk the line |
I just got done watching Walk the Line. You know, the Johnny Cash film with Joaquin Phoenix. It made me sad. It reminded me of my Grandpa and the way he used to call me Pumpkin. ... Posted by Rachel on Mon, 21 Nov 2005 02:02:00 PST |

My Brush with Greatness. |
It's around midnight or so right now. I just got in. I had a brush with greatness this evening.
They're doing a screening of select Werner Herzog films at the Seattle Art Museum. I went to one tonigh... Posted by Rachel on Wed, 09 Nov 2005 12:34:00 PST |
