A Reintroduction Of Sorts
I’m told by a friend of mine that his wife gets furious if the rug by the bathtub gets wet. So, what’s he supposed to do-stand in the shower until he’s dry? Now, I made that up, well sort of. And even if I didn’t or just bent the truth a little, there are other options he could use [Read more] Read More →
Creating The Smart Ass Tattooed Character
I’ll let you in on his creation in a written moment or two, but first a pat on my own back for getting this far. You think it’s easy being all spiritual and shit when computers and codes and graphics and the ultimate neurotic need for perfection all collide simultaneously? My twitching eyebrows and rollercoaster stomach are saying “maybe not so easy”. But, oddly enough,... [Read more]
Welcome To My Smart Ass Spiritual World
A ‘go away’ welcome mat; “what could be more Smart Ass Spiritual than that” he asked in his semi-best, pseudo serious rhetorical voice. Shit, you can’t really take any of this seriously; not really. Why? Cause it’s about spirituality smart ass style and there’s just nothing serious about it. When I first told Ruthie (my lovely and wonderful 83 year old... [Read more]
Dead End Graveyard
Look to the left. This was my first solo attempt at placing a thumbnail photo in a post. Yup, I thought I’d try it sans Tanya, my wonderfully talented new friend and graphics/computer savant. Spent a couple of hours last night and a couple of more today trying to figure out where I screwed the pooch. I was sure I did everything right. I even had an example to work from, so to speak. But,... [Read more]
Changed Priorities
The first time I met my psychiatrist, I made sure he knew I was a lawyer. I didn’t want him to think I was just some schmuck off the street. I wanted him to know I was a well educated, professional schmuck. I’m guessing you’re wondering what that has to do with ‘priorities’, changed or otherwise. I’m not sure really. My insight is that priorities are such a weight... [Read more]
We Kill Each Other – Just That
Sarah was stabbed in the heart on April 15, 2009. One violent, vicious thrust was all it took. She hadn’t even gotten out of her car yet when another teenage girl decided to play God. They pronounced her dead about an hour after she arrived at the ER. In reality, she died as soon as the big kitchen blade pierced her skin. The details are available but aren’t important; not really. The... [Read more]
The People We Meet and High Anxiety – Part 1
‘Anxiety disorder’ – how’s that sound to you as a malady? Sorta tame, maybe. Perhaps even fits right in with our ‘edgy’ theme; almost benign if not even a little beneficial to the Smart Ass in us. Some might say it could ‘keep us on our Smart Ass toes’, a cliche I don’t mind using for some unknown reason. Ok, so I have a little anxiety disorder.... [Read more]
