t’is the night before V day

and all through the house, not a creature was stirring, except a small squirmy louse. http://www.cnn.com/2007/POLITICS/02/13/vets.budget.ap/index.html?eref=rss_latest It’s interesting to read this article after hearing on the news this morning that there was a 25% casualty rate during Vietnam and the first gulf war, but the current war had a survival rate of some 90%. From…

I am about to mourn the loss of my friend, computer

I think sometimes I am too finicky because my moods cannot be satiated with delay. The delay of the computer in loading my page, or even just the delay of my mere existence. That Ipod I gushed about is still waiting for a launch time–the computer I am working on is 6 years old. The…

life as you “NO” it

It’s been really hard for me to pick what to write about, what to express lately. It’s not that I am without words, it’s just that prioritizing them into any kind of format has been incredibly hard, and almost impossible to begin.I have also been looking at my writing as a kind of art form….

I hate inspiring jealousy…but

So my Kissmas was not without reward…on top of all of the fun and amazing friendly family time I had this year with my buddies and such, I also managed to get a freaking video ipod from franCine and a vacation from E. Usually these are not things I like to gloat about, but the…

Christmas shmooze years 2006-07

Oh my Christmas. Merry Happy Chanu-Christma New Year’s to all. I update so infrequently because of the lack of free time in my life, and when it does seem to happen, I decide to dedicate it to other endeavors. Towards the end of the year things become totally complicated, what with my balancing acts with…

slick wickets

Funny how sporadic life can feel…I think all of the time about writing. But I spend so much time at work doing the same thing all day long…over and over : “If there is anything I might be able to assist you with, please feel free to contact me”, that when I do get home,…

Just a piece of writing I think makes sense

www.truthdig.com/report/item/200601019_after_pats_birthday/ Then you can check this out: sports.espn.go.com/espn/eticket/story?page=tillmanpart1 Then you might be able to convince me I am crazy about being upset at what our government does. Then you might be able to see why I am so angry about what is happening. The nerve is almost just shocking, until you realize they do whatever…

30 is Fancy! It’s true.

Wow. So I had my party last night. A small gathering of people I had emailed to come out and play, because it was a big deal to me to celebrate what I hope is the first year without major incident. I spent the entire decade of my twenties being sick, getting surgeries and just…

A brief history of Deanna: From 1995-2010

It has always been very hard to me to condense my life’s experiences across the expanse of a few pages, to limit my goals, mile markers and those points of reference to just a splattering of words across some white pages. Granted I do know that there is organization involved, and skill involved in being…

I’m Dancing in My Chair

I found this cd, Citizen Cope, the Clarence Greenwood Recordings from a rolling stone article about artists to watch for a few years back. I listened to the cd so much that I ended up scratching it somehow, and didn’t get to replace it until last night, when I got it and his newer one….
