About Me
- Name: Aunt B
- Location: Nashville, Tennessee, United States
Like Donnell Alexander says, "It's about completing the task of living with enough spontaneity to splurge some of it on bystanders, to share with others working through their own travails a little of your bonus life." But, it's mostly the kind of place that folks looking for "girls and cars" stumble across by accident.

THE CAST OF CHARACTERS
Aunt B.--Your kind host.The Butcher--My youngest brother, who lives with me and works as, you guessed it, a butcher. He knows everyone in town.
The Recalcitrant Brother--Our middle brother, who lives in rural Georgia and has a kind of movie star life, if that movie star is Burt Reynolds in Deliverance.
The Reverend--Our Dad, a Methodist minister, perpetually three years from retirement.
Mom--Our Mom. She doesn't get a funny nickname because our mom will not stand for funny nicknames.
Mrs. Wigglebottom--My dog. She's got terrible manners.
The Corporate Shill--Or The Shill, as we call her. My friend from college who was constantly getting me into trouble and going to parties she neglected to tell me about where cute boys would ask her "Where's Aunt B.?"
The Legal Eagle--The Shill's husband.
The Super Genius--She lived next door to me my freshman year of college and we've been friends ever since my first day on the floor.
Miss J.--My first adult friend, meaning the first lasting friendship I made after college. She was my roommate in grad school.
Her Lover--Her Husband.
The Divine Ms. B.--Miss J.'s sister and one of my heroes, because she's brave and funny and mystic and fearless.
JR--My oldest friend. I've known her since I was in the second grade.
Elias--JR's husband and the person who's musical tastes have most strongly affected my own. Oh, how I long to be cooler than him!
The Professor--My closest friend here in Nashville. She's a genius, but she'll never tell you that.
The Man from GM--I've known him since I was 16 and he still hasn't forgiven me for telling him I was a vegetarian when I wasn't.
The Redheaded Kid--No one knows where he comes from or where he goes when he leaves here. I assume he's the Butcher's friend. The Butcher assumes he's mine.

Been preparing for your military event planned for later? I hope you got the news cameras set up with the best angle.
Didn't BRMC come to Nashville a few weeks ago? If they ever come back, we must go see them together. As for the liberal blogging thing, I frankly get tired talking about politics everyday. I'll probably be back in a week or two. At that point, I think I will concentrate more on creating substanial weekly publishing rounds instead of everyday posting. I also think I'll get more involved in local politics in the vein of Enclave. As of now, TVontheFritz is just another asshole spouting his opinion on the Internet. I want to change that if I can help it.
I would've sent you an e-mail, but I'm too lazy to log-in and type appropriateaunt in the heading.
W., you'll be shocked to know that not one member of the military showed up. I blame Blogger and the fact that Tiny Cat Pants was unavailable for so long this morning.
Fritz, I hear you. You've got to do what you've got to do to feel refreshed and reinvigorated. Still, I'm starting to feel a little lonely.
