receding

August 31, 2011 rebunting

I took a walk last night down to the center of town again with Jake. The roadblocks have been removed and the bridge was open again - it only took three days this time for the water to recede. There were families out working in their yards, emptying garages and basements of possessions that were… Continue reading receding

last night was shaking

August 28, 2011 rebunting

So Irene came and went. Maybe some other time we will talk about all the fun things that happened, like the tornado warnings that were steadily moving northwest from the shore area toward my area, and how Casa Buneke lost power in the middle of the warnings. Or how we decided to take the cats… Continue reading last night was shaking

come on feel the noise

August 27, 2011August 27, 2011 rebunting

Just a quick storm update: despite my sarcastic update earlier this week, I do actually tend to get a little anxious during periods of intense rain.

August 24, 2011August 24, 2011 rebunting

This summer Jacob spent two weeks at the summer camp I used to go to as a child. The first week was an overnight camp, which he approached with a positive attitude and only a little trepidation. At the end of the week he was tick-free and playing it cool, though his counselors tipped me… Continue reading same as it ever was

where is samuel l jackson when you need him

August 19, 2011August 19, 2011 rebunting

So here is something funny. On Wednesday night, my cats were acting weird. Normally they look like this: They are kind of fat and lazy. But on Wednesday they were on their toes in front of the pie safe* in the dining room, trying to get under it. I assumed they'd lost a toy down… Continue reading where is samuel l jackson when you need him

Hello blog, I haven't seen you in so long. I should be doing a resolutions update, but I don't feel like it. So instead, here's a sort of other kind of update: Poetry News I have two new poems in the latest issue of Blood Lotus Journal, out now! It's a beautiful journal, using the… Continue reading that’s me in the spotlight.
