TBA

Recently I had a dream about driving to Arizona, staying up all night, and looking at the clock when it was 4:11 and 4:12. Now I’m wondering if maybe my cousin in Arizona is going to have her baby on 4/11. At 4:12. Or at 4:11 on 4/12. Or maybe even 4/23. Hmmmm.

Those Were the Days My Friend

For quite a few years now, after January 1st I have considered myself the age I am going to turn in that year. So, if asked my age between January 1 and April 19, I have to think really hard about the answer. Actually, I always have to think hard about how old I am, [...]

Status Woe

Facebook status is an occasionally interesting, mostly banal, sometimes humorous window into the lives of people I know but do not see often enough to know much about their day to day lives. Mostly, it’s fun. I know that one friend is rapidly losing weight, I get little updates about my fellow teacher training graduates [...]

The Scoop

Since the end of the teacher training, I have been having some seriously weird, messed up dreams. Sure, I get some doozies from time to time – I am nothing if not a creative soul – but for the most part I dream about things like loading the dishwasher, or Scott scooping dog poop in [...]

Another of Many Google-Related Reasons I Am Probably On A Watchlist Somewhere

I am going to be 34 next month. Many years ago, I remember joking that I couldn’t wait to turn 36 because then I could date men half my age legally. Of course I said that when 36 was a long, long way off instead of just 25 months. Also, it occurred to me recently [...]

By the Numbers

Last night I was laying in bed, thinking about nothing really, when our Princeton phone number popped into my head. With that, I realized that I remember all of my childhood phone numbers, except for the one from the house where we lived for the first two years of my life when I didn’t know [...]

Deep Thoughts with Scott

Scott: Toward the end of that yoga class, all I could think about was a tofu sandwich.Me: I think that if fifteen years ago you heard now you say that, fifteen years ago you would kick your ass.Scott: Maybe. Maybe…

Bag of Tricks

Because I don’t usually carry a purse, the purses I own are small, and rarely collect junk. It’s unusual that one of my bags will ever contain more than my wallet, hand sanitizer, phone, gum, keys, and maybe a lipstick. This is why I was especially surprised this afternoon when I got out a purse [...]
