Despite having sent out 95 holiday cards, I still feel as if the holidays passed by without nearly enough time for me to make contact with all of the people I had hoped. Shit, I guess I can say the same thing about the entire year. Sometimes I think that TIME is the ultimate 4-letter … Continue reading Holidaze 2015
First impressions – Nashville
Nashville's Holy Trinity seems to be the man bun, the fuzzy beard and flannel shirt. Any one of those can be subbed out for an ironic pair of glasses. I am not stating this in any sort of critical fashion, it's merely an observation. Kind of like how no one other than the three of … Continue reading First impressions – Nashville
Newark airport is a pit
I can't say that was obvious immediately. Actually, at first, there was a misleading charm (the worst kind of charm, I think) with regards to the scale of things.

Last … Continue reading It’s the most wonderful time of the year…

I'm kind of a blunt girl at times. I can cushion a blow when necessary, but I tend to speak pretty plainly. I don't like being misunderstood. That being said, I don't appreciate coarseness in anything other than ground pepper. During the past few years, I've grown increasingly repulsed by the contrast between public generosity … Continue reading Some thoughts I’ve been thinking
I need (to have) a dog
Two years ago, we let our 12 year-old lab, Cassidy, go. She made it clear that day when she laid down on the cold, snowy sidewalk and refused to get up, that it was time and she was ready. To this day, I so appreciate that she clearly communicated her need to be done to … Continue reading I need (to have) a dog
