I'm leaving the old intro here, but adding this- it appears the doves have taken over my blog for their fiction. Just as well, I was doing a piss poor job of updating. They're doing much better.
This blog is infrequently updated, full of incorrect spellings, misused words, and general bad grammar. It started when I was trying to use google+ (which I've since given up on) and discovered there was no character limit for posts. If you've known me a long time, a lot of these stories will be old hat. If you plan to know me for a long time, you'll no doubt hear many of them in person. But, folks seemed to enjoy them, so here they are.

tree, when we were walking up to it, was in full bloom- covered in
large white flowers that, from a distance, looked like magnolia. As we
got closer, some of the flowers started to lift off; by the time we
were within a hundred yards, it was bare, and the sky full of egrets

The Seventy Second Story
Looking
out the window as we were landing in Florida, there was an egret,
enormous and white, floating along outside my window for a very long
moment. It was as though he was guiding us in; some sort of divine
tugboat so gloriously graceful that he needn't a rope to pull us behind
him.
