Tonight, my husband and I went to a meetup with Atlanta Skeptics at Manuel’s Tavern, which is a famous political bar in the Virginia-Highlands area in Atlanta.

I recorded this late because my younger daughter had homework, then my husband was watching a ballgame very loudly on the TV, and then older daughter and her friend were running up and down the stairs, slamming doors, so it took a little while to get a quiet house.

I am doing a bed cast today because my back is hurting! And I haven’t talked to anyone much so my voice is scratchy. But you may like the way this sounds because of the pillows and mattress blocking some of the echos. I don’t record this often because . . . → Read More: Flyswatter 11-10-2010

Today Jen from Inside My Head podcast and I recorded a show together. We talked about silly new-aged beliefs involving Apache medicine women and quartz crystals I had when I was younger, and scary dreams that portended the future that Jen had, and nuclear war and those scary post-WWIII . . . → Read More: Flyswatter Show 11-09-2010

I put off doing my show until evening and it was a good thing as I got a couple of voicemails.

The first was from Jen who does the Inside My Head podcast. She started that show on the first day of the first NaPodPoMo four years ago, and has kept it . . . → Read More: Flyswatter Show 11-08-2010

Today my husband, youngest daughter, and dog Copernicus decided to walk to a dollar store to buy leftover Halloween candy (daughter’s idea), and I opted to record the walk. It’s very noisy, you’ll hear crunchy leaves, airplanes, cars, gasping dog, and me breathing, plus people walking around and talking on cellphones. Also, . . . → Read More: Flyswatter Show 11-06-2010

I am angry today.

On Saturday, Dwight and I went to a satellite of Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert‘s Rally to Restore Sanity and/or Fear at Manuel’s Tavern. Jon Stewart lumped Keith Olbermann, an angry liberal, in with angry conservatives Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O’Reilly, and Shawn Hannity.

Quick show today. I got stuck doing a bunch of deliveries in the rain today, then I had to change out some dumb clip art to some dumb photos for a Powerpoint presentation, which took FOREVER. But hey, it’s money.

I didn’t know what to talk about today. Election day? A dream I had? Then my neighbor knocked on my door and informed me that my car had been broken into. Nothing stolen, but stuff from my car was all over his lawn.
