I've somehow managed to break both my laptop and tablet within three days of each other. I also scalded the fuck out of one hand with soup and lodged a bunch of broken glass in the other. Mercury Retrograde is adorable. The point is, I wrote/posted this entire entry from my cell using the WordPress... Continue Reading →
Rant: The Woman/ Fifth Grade Psychopaths
I watched a film called The Woman last night. While the acting was kind of weak and the story had its flaws, it definitely freaked me the fuck out. Sure, there were two gore scenes (TWO!) that made me wonder if I was going to vomit. A rarity for a gore-hound like myself. But really,... Continue Reading →
The Fly (who has nothing to do with Jeff Goldblum)
If you asked the fly, whose life I saved yesterday, about the spider whose legs I broke and crushed before drowning this morning, he wouldn’t believe you. You would tell him how I stepped into the shower and felt eight little legs break under my weight. How I lifted my foot and saw its crippled,... Continue Reading →

reblog: Vincent Castiglia
by Constance Ann Fitzgerald
I’ve been incredibly lazy. I’ve been on the couch or in bed watching tv shows and movies and not doing much else that could be deemed “productive” in any way. Since our stolen cable has officially been shut off, I depend on Netflix to entertain me during my laying about. Once I finished watching all the episodes of 30Rock for the seventieth time, it was suggested that I watch a show called Oddities from the Science Channel.
Oddities!? Yes, PLEASE!
I’ve seen all sorts of quack medical devices, mortician’s gear, various types of deformed taxidermy and still born things in jars, plasticized organs, straight jackets and circus sideshow performers. It’s pretty much the greatest thing I have ever seen.
But what REALLY got me was an artist named Vincent Castiglia. He stopped by Obscura to see if they would be interested in selling his paintings.

Six Days, Eighteen Days, ALL the Days.
October 22nd was the 1 year anniversary of the publication of my first novella, Trashland A Go-Go. That's pretty damn exciting. WHAT a year it's been! It's been full of excitement and, more recently, some sadness. But as my year long trial with the New Bizarro Author Series comes to a close, I can't help... Continue Reading →
Attack of the Photo Blog: Hyaena Weekend!
This past weekend I was invited to read at the Hyaena Gallery in sunny Burbank California with Andrew Goldfarb, Cody Goodfellow, Mark Leventhal, Laura Lee Bahr and fellow NBAS-ers Michael Allen Rose and Spike Marlowe. “Invited” is a term I use loosely. Really, I was invited to the event by Michael Allen Rose and had... Continue Reading →
