Michelle Newcome: January 2008
http://michellenewcome.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 27, 2008. I'd Rather Be Bad Than Good. I'm grooving along paying bills while listening to The Jody Grind and this song comes on. Isn't that the root of all choices? Would you rather be bad? The song's really about not seeing a certain guy anymore because with him she'd rather be bad. It's the pull of the brassy. If you were to do a little search of my google history you'd discover that at least once per day I search for, are you ready? At the end of the day, I think we love to watch peopl...

An even better form of birth control: Richard Dean Anderson - Call Me!
http://shmortie.blogspot.com/2010/02/richard-dean-anderson-call-me.html
Monday, February 1, 2010. Richard Dean Anderson - Call Me! Alas, things had begun to disappear from my safest of safe places. I hesitated to call foul play. Some items, like my spa gift certificates, were indeed valuable and easily transferable. But would anyone really want to steal my frequent buyer card for hamster food? There's a big picture of a hamster on it - no one could mistake it for a Starbucks gift card. Some people tell whimsical stories about a family of little people (no, not local Chinese!

nikki mcintosh: April 2013
http://www.nikkimcintosh.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 9 April 2013. Cage Match: Chris Evans vs. Chris Pine. Let me demonstrate the concept of. No, let ME demonstrate the. Concept of "perfect scruff". I spend a considerable amount of time "researching" heroes. Too much, some might say, but I feel if you're dedicated to this thing we call 'writing' then you need to show you're serious. Serious about it that I know the difference between Chris Pine and Chris Evans. Trouble is, which one do I like better? What do you think? Should I put on a tie? Nikki...

Michelle Newcome: August 2009
http://michellenewcome.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 26, 2009. All joys are due to thee . . . Don’t worry, I’m not about to start posting naked pictures of myself on here. That. Would. Be. Bad. This will be an entry about exercise. It’s a leap, I know. I was flipping through my stack of diet books (a post for another day) and came across this really interesting quote in a Jorge Cruise book. Exercise is a form of body praise. Hmmm I like that much better than my old form of body praise, which went something like this:. Wooo Hooo Go Naked.

Michelle Newcome: Poetry - The Night We Danced Sequence
http://michellenewcome.blogspot.com/2009/10/poetry-night-we-danced-sequence.html
Friday, October 09, 2009. Poetry - The Night We Danced Sequence. I The Night We Danced at the Promenade. In the blue-walled ballroom of the Hotel Don Leon. The boot-black sky served in slices at the open doors. And citrus blossoms hanging thick as seed pearls. On the specimen trees espaliered on the courtyard walls. Like men before a firing squad,. We were not yet lovers. Forehead to cheek, we kept the distance demanded of our charges. Fevered teenage eyes watching us, suspicious of our dancing grace,.

Michelle Newcome: Mind the Swale
http://michellenewcome.blogspot.com/2009/09/mind-swale.html
Thursday, September 24, 2009. A drainage swale is a shaped and sloped depression in the soil surface used to convey runoff to a desired location. (like the neighbor directly behind you! From the California Stormwater BMP Handbook. A) the step-daughter of a builder and. B) Remember all those crazy occupations I’ve had! So, I knew we had a nice little swale going around our outbuilding, however, the past few years we’ve been in a drought and we’ve been crazy people due to – life. So m...Picture of me and m...

Michelle Newcome: July 2009
http://michellenewcome.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 29, 2009. Memories, Dreams, Reflections. Apologies to Carl Jung for stealing his title. I am in a spell of dryness and trying to discover how to come out of the desert. This piece will perambulate, but I promise to eventually go ahead and define the boundaries of my inspection. Can Barbie ever have children of her own? Will Skipper be able to save her sick pony? We tried out alternate stories, different arcs, until we discovered what felt like the happiest ending. Thank You, Burpees.
