[NOTE: I wrote this garbage years ago. It was a stage in my development as I learned to understand something I didn’t. I’m now ashamed of most of it, but I choose not to delete it because it’s proof that people can and do grow and change over time. So if someone you know still […]
In which many exciting changes — a move, a job change, and not one but two opportunities for travel — are afoot! The lease is up here, and while this apartment has some incredible amenities — such as southern exposure, a gas range, amazing cross-ventilation, and a wonderful view of a park with a pond […]
In which I rode my bike to work, and four-and-a-quarter hours later I rode it home again. My apartment is technically only six blocks from work; it’s just that they’re such gigantic, industrial blocks that those six blocks actually equal 1.2 miles. (A mile usually contains 17 typical city blocks, that’s how big these blocks […]
In which I think people are being a bit irrational. So, a pudgy British comedian calls out this chick trophy hunter on social media and, like anything that ever gets traction these days, for no apparent reason it absolutely explodes all over the place. In the last couple of days I’ve seen dozens and dozens […]
In which I’m a domestic goddess. When I got up this morning — and when I say ‘morning’ you should read ‘afternoon,’ because I didn’t get up until twelve-thirty — I already had dinner planned and was resolved to wash the bed linens. I stretched lightly in bed, then got up and did a few […]
In which there is no irony in this post. Happy Thanksgiving! Last night we stayed up late enjoying Christmas movies and adult beverages and this amazing hot spinach-artichoke dip we made somewhere around midnight. It was AMAZEBALLS. (Click the pic for a link to the recipe.) Then we slept and snuggled until well past noon […]
In which I complain about things I don’t like. Because I’m spiritual and restrained like that. Finance I spend a lot of time on Amazon.com. I just do. I’m a Kindle owner several times over, I like ordering stuff online and not having to deal with stores or people or shopping, and it’s just convenient. […]
In which standing is apparently much healthier than sitting but it hurts like a bitch. While I really enjoy my new job as I’m doing it, my feet hurt, the pay’s lame, and the schedule is horrendous. Don’t even get me started on the noise and the horrible lighting and the concrete floors, or the […]
In which there’s basically a glorified to-do list. I just read a good friend’s post about meeting and reaching goals, and decided to write my own since I’ve got all this free time on my hands. Work/income I need to get a job before I run out of money altogether. (I also need a reason […]
In which there’s been lots of consumerism. So. Much. Buying. Stuff. We’ve purchased the following things: a dish drainer, Pyrex casserole dishes, an immersion blender, a bicycle, many groceries, a big scented candle, a bike lock, a nightlight, a tiny bungee cord and a bike basket, a box of 25 different kinds of incense, a […]
