Still Life With Noise: Polly Who?
http://stilllifewithnoise.blogspot.com/2010/11/polly-who.html
Still Life With Noise. It is what it is (and for that I'm grateful). Saturday, November 6, 2010. My Last Date - by Nancy Jordet. I met this guy a while ago, at a party of a friend of mine. We connected in a very big way, talked for a couple of hours straight that night, went out a few times, had deep talks and light conversations, had fun. By last night I was anxiously giddy about what was going to happen next, but willing to take it however it presented itself. Okay, not really. Nonetheless. He drops hi...

Still Life With Noise: Why I Took My Boots Back
http://stilllifewithnoise.blogspot.com/2013/01/why-i-took-my-boots-back_24.html
Still Life With Noise. It is what it is (and for that I'm grateful). Thursday, January 24, 2013. Why I Took My Boots Back. Wow, I just looked at the date of my last post. I haven't written in this blog for almost a year - since my ex started reading it and found it necessary to share some particularly nasty comments he had to say assuming that what he read pertained to him. He should be so important, yes? So, while ringing at an almost cardio-vascular pace, trying to get through the line quickly, a woman...

Still Life With Noise: She's Been Here Longer
http://stilllifewithnoise.blogspot.com/2012/02/shes-been-here-longer.html
Still Life With Noise. It is what it is (and for that I'm grateful). Saturday, February 18, 2012. She's Been Here Longer. So here I sit, today, mother of a 15 year old. Who'd a thunk? Sasha is an extraordinary person, and I say that not just as her mother but as an observant, spiritual being. When she was four years old and standing in the kitchen together, she looked up at me and said, "You know, I've been here a lot longer than you have.". I believed her then and I believe her now. Now this was a time ...

Still Life With Noise: Gutter Girl
http://stilllifewithnoise.blogspot.com/2011/10/gutter-girl.html
Still Life With Noise. It is what it is (and for that I'm grateful). Thursday, October 6, 2011. She knows to take a left as she pours herself out onto the sidewalk. She does this almost every night, although she doesn’t know this for another year, when she finally hits rock bottom. So off she goes in her little Wall Street suit, high heeled shoes and designer bag, swerving up Second Avenue, doing her very best to track and follow the line down the middle of the sidewalk – oops, off to the left, bac...

Still Life With Noise: I'm Ergless for Him
http://stilllifewithnoise.blogspot.com/2011/08/im-ergless-for-him.html
Still Life With Noise. It is what it is (and for that I'm grateful). Monday, August 29, 2011. I'm Ergless for Him. How do you like that? I just realized today that I've been dumped. It didn't occur to me until now because I'm usually the dumper, not the dumpee (maybe because I tend to dump right before being dumped) but I guess if you don't hear from someone for a month, you're done, yes? Now, all of a sudden I must meet this man, in the biggest way, and I'm itching with quasi-obsession - but how? Anothe...

Still Life With Noise: Better A Used Sofa Than A Used Me
http://stilllifewithnoise.blogspot.com/2012/02/better-used-sofa-than-used-me.html
Still Life With Noise. It is what it is (and for that I'm grateful). Friday, February 17, 2012. Better A Used Sofa Than A Used Me. I used to live with an Arab. He worked as a pilot for the government, or so he told me. Although he never said WHICH government, I don't think it was ours, as we used to vacation in places like Syria and Libya. And other places where I was told not to leave the hotel. Didn't I find this suspect? Hey They were nice hotels. And so this went on for years, three months of bizarre...

Still Life With Noise: I Can Always Shave My Legs Again
http://stilllifewithnoise.blogspot.com/2011/06/i-can-always-shave-my-legs-again.html
Still Life With Noise. It is what it is (and for that I'm grateful). Thursday, June 23, 2011. I Can Always Shave My Legs Again. I see couples in cars, couples walking down the street hand-in-hand, couples speaking intimately in low voices in restaurants. Of course I do. I'm single. I pray to the gods, swearing that if I ever get the chance again, I will never take my couple-dom for granted, I will show up, I will nurture, I will cherish. So, pencil it in! I get up late, 8:15, and realize that I haven't b...

Still Life With Noise: Too Quiet
http://stilllifewithnoise.blogspot.com/2010/10/too-quiet.html
Still Life With Noise. It is what it is (and for that I'm grateful). Saturday, October 9, 2010. I'd like to just go to sleep for a week. My reset button feels like it needs that much down time. He followed me absolutely everywhere - when I paced, which I do when I write or think, he paced right next to me with his nose stuck in my hand. He did the laundry with me and cooked with me and surfed the web with me. He was always here and almost always looking right at me with them sweet amber eyes. I believe a...

Still Life With Noise: Less Distraction, Please
http://stilllifewithnoise.blogspot.com/2011/04/less-distraction-please.html
Still Life With Noise. It is what it is (and for that I'm grateful). Wednesday, April 20, 2011. Less Distraction, Please. Yesterday I had a dream, and I had it while I was wide awake. A vision? I've never allowed myself to dream, whether it seemed something attainable or not. What I do know now that I've had this extraordinarily vivid "dream" is how deprived I've been of hope. Strange to wake up in mid-life (as if I'm living to 100, right? And find how much I've avoided wanting. Subscribe to: Post Commen...
