    Yes, this was me yesterday, definitely!  If you noticed (and you probably did), my website was offline most of yesterday.  Here’s the real story of what happened.  Are you ready? I woke up, and things were fine.  I was busy posting my “history” post, and things were normal.  It said I needed to update one of my trusted plugins, so […]

    Okay, I realize I’m a little behind, but I was on vacation.  So here’s to catching up.  Warning–only read this if you really want to.  I will keep it “PG,” but it will be very honest and extremely personal. I have had really bad success with men in my life.  I like to say that I have been married, engaged, […]

    Well, I have done it again.  My last video didn’t go as well as I would have liked for it to go.  I have been performing for people all of my life, but I am used to large crowds.  I learned.  I placed the video camera further from me, and I watched that my expression did not get out of […]
