About Ampersand
Hey, hi. I kind of think that “About Me” pages on blogs are a bit silly, because isn’t the whole blog About Me? (It’s right in the name, dude). I thought I would just give you a list of entries I’ve liked over the years (yeeeeaaaaaarrsss!!) I’ve been writing online. Before you get to those, however, you may wish to know:
My name (right in the URL!) is pronounced “key-ar-ah” not “chee-ar-ah.” In case you like to read aloud.
I am an American living in Wellington, New Zealand. Check out the handily-named “Wellington” and “New Zealand” tags if you want to read more about that.
“Ampersand” doesn’t mean anything. When I first started this thing my “About Me” page said something like “It’s a long word for a short symbol,” but again, that doesn’t really mean anything.
If I Were A Bus Driver One of the first entries I wrote that I really liked.
Et Tu, Haricot Vert? What happens when I try to eat vegetables.
The Mountain. What used to be my big romantic crossed-stars story; very hard to believe I ever felt this way. Here is a follow-up of sorts, written four years later.
My Secret About a very important song for me.
The Cloud Room I don’t actually think anyone else likes this entry as much as I do.
Heaven. Another one I don’t think anyone else likes as much as I do.
The Mirror Bar About going out in Wellington, the first year I lived here, back when I actually went out on Saturdays.
My First Kiss Lizard tongue plus plunger mouth: how can you lose?
Crushes. I like you do you like me please check this box yes or no.
School I helped out at my Mom’s kindergarden class and it was HARD.
Nights. How I have spent some.
Digging. Putting up walls.
St. Swithin’s Day. Another important song for me.
