Totes & Noodles & Flannel

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on November 10, 2018 by Kelli Jae BaeliMay 15, 2019

That wasn’t the weirdest thing I’ve ever done in bed–(insert your own off-color comment here).

Win8, Lose2

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on December 1, 2013 by Kelli Jae BaeliDecember 1, 2013

Since I sleep most of the day and stay up all night in order to be on my baby’s schedule so we can visit during the day via Facebook text messaging or Skype video, I have gotten into the habit of wearing a sleep mask to block out light- in an effort to trick my brain into thinking its night time. My circadian rhythm has never been able to dance anyway. In fact it can’t even tap its foot. But I remember years ago seeing women on TV who slept in sleep masks and I thought I could never do … Continue reading →

Going to Denver Because You’re Dead (2)

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on August 4, 2009 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 5, 2013

In this second installment, I am on my way, the tone of the journey being set right away in Joplin, a mere 60 minutes from my starting place… Fri August 1 at 9:08am~ Jae:: in Joplin at loves truckstop. Having food and getting ice for my neck. It’s swelling. It’s tedious already driving 45mph I feel like I’m going to CO on horseback. Veep: but not bareback…..right? Jae: Yes, bareback, where all the trouble is to be found. First, i get back on the exit and take the wrong turn, winding up on an access road next to the interstate, … Continue reading →

Temporal Anomaly?

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on November 2, 2008 by Kelli Jae BaeliNovember 2, 2008

Something weird happened to me. One of those things you don’t really notice until you think about it. Yesterday, i went to bed at around 2:30 a.m., and as usual, continued reading the last of a book. I finished the last few short chapters and then got up to do the ritual things before bed, got back in bed and started a new book, read for about a half hour (no more than a hour), reached to turn the lamp off, and saw that by the clock it was something like 7:30 a.m. I thought–that can’t be right, then recalled … Continue reading →

Birthday Blows

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on March 15, 2008 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 7, 2012

(I wrote this on my birthday, yesterday, but didn’t get it posted in time, as i was busy writing other posts and trying to get that random-text JavaScript to work. I welcome any JavaScript Gurus who might be able to tell me how to fix it. But here is the post, belated, as birthday recognition seems always to be): I woke to the sound of leaf blowers, realizing March Madness, for me, isn’t a basketball tournament, but a month signifying the beginning of the Condo Association’s launch into landscaping and general outside maintenance. So, the first leaf blowers have arrived. … Continue reading →

Knock & the Door Won’t Be Opened to You

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on February 12, 2008 by Kelli Jae BaeliMarch 8, 2013

I have a condition called Delayed Sleep Phase Syndrome, and that often means I wind up sleeping during the day, and being awake at night. This schedule has its negative aspects. One of them is the fact that I’m asleep while everyone else is going about their business. Few things can awaken the irrational beast in me faster than someone knocking on my door when I’m asleep. First, it scares me, and so that’s what is known as a rude awakening. Who likes waking up scared? Knocks on the door have always scared me, even when I’m awake. I’ve tried … Continue reading →

Mind-Numbing Meaningless Morning

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on November 2, 2002 by Kelli Jae BaeliNovember 2, 2002

I sense that I am slipping into that space between the wall and the airbed. Instinctually, I shift to the middle of the twin space. I look at the clock, because I have to look at it. I need to know what time it is. I need to get my bearings, do the math, calculate how long I’ve been asleep. Let’s see… one-thirty seven. . . I went to sleep. . . when? I recall looking at the clock when I went to sleep, trying to memorize the numbers, so that I could do these calculations when I wake up. … Continue reading →

Quotes from Kelli Jae Baeli

"I want to be sweeping the nation. Just not in a janitorial sense."

Politics Quotes

"People feel removed from sexism. 'I'm not a sexist, but I'm not a feminist.' They think there's this fuzzy middle ground. There's no fuzzy middle ground. You either believe that women are people or you don't. It's that simple." (Joss Whedon)

Is it just me, or is something wrong with Al Franken? Saw him on Stephanie Ruhl tonight. He seems off, like his brain isn't functioning. I've never seen him like that. Does he have a health issue?
