Mars Mission...

I am a stay-at-home caretaker to entropy. I'm petitioning for the jetpacks. I have offered my body to science, and the things that have happened since would make your eyes water. You'll understand someday after you've been revived from cryosleep.

I write, and a writing without an audience is dinner made when no one shows up: I end up drinking all the wine and then there is another Tupperware incident. My name is Sunday Williams, and I'd like you to stay awhile.

EXCERPTS

"To one side of me, as I pass, is a verdant, Switzerland-like planet, the kind of home planet a Princess might watch be destroyed by an evil tyrant bent on extracting Rebel information.

To another side of me (remember, we are in space, so there are going to be as many sides as I need) is a black, cracked celestial object, now dull with weak radiation and congestive, man-made smog; the kind of expired dead star mass that orbits a sand-planet where one might collect The Spice, if one so desired.

I want to stop using Typepad.  It's good, as far as little template-based blogging platforms go, but for the monthly fee, there is an inexcusable restriction on back-end a...

Look Ma, I'm A Hippy! Sep 14

In a probably not coincidental Zen moment, I watched this trailer today while thinking about wanting some homemade madeleines and then admonishing myself for them not being in our "diet."  And then I remembered: sometimes it's not about the butter.  So ...

Amish Airlines: It's Our Secret How We Get The Horse And Carriage To Fly Sep 13

No doubt by now you've heard of the Southwest Airlines Is A Prude scandal.  If you haven't, in summary: a 23-year busty Hooters waitress was asked to "go home" and change her clothes because Southwest was a "family airline."  Whether or not sh...

The Opposite Of Disappointing Sep 12

I'd Turn Over A New Leaf If There Was A Banana Split Under It Sep 10

So far so good on the first day of pretending to be healthy. See update.

This morning I decided to do a round of aggressive walk/running, which went well considering that I hate
exercise more than I hate zombies eating me.  I recently had this conversation with my b...
