Last night I talked to my sister on the phone. She was having a problem that I was trying to help with. She was really quiet after I said anything, making me think that I was sounding like an idiot. Then she said, “You know, I wanted to tell you that I’m really proud of [...]

Have you ever fallen into that zone of procrastination where you just kind of decide to stop doing … anything? I’m kind of stuck there now. I guess that’s not entirely true. I’m doing things. I’m croceting a lot of cool things to sell at a craft show in November. I’m looking for a dress [...]

I can’t describe how beautiful today is. Last night it rained, and today is clean and crisp and cool. There’s a heavy breeze that’s bringing in the first real taste of fall. And I love it. I had my breakfast today in our sunroom, right there in the right corner at the little table. See [...]

I’m doing it. I’m being proactive about my lovelife. But, you know, in a completely non-confrontational kind of way. Because I’m still a big chicken like that. I joined eHarmony. Yes, I’m a big nerd and I joined an online dating site. Let the inner neuroses begin.
So for this site you fill out an uber [...]
Pick Me Up

Last night my friend S came over and together we made dinner for ourselves. It was awesome. S made a side dish of cut up potatoes mixed with butter and one of those onion soup mix packets and stuck it in the oven. I made my famous steak and ale pie, and we ate and [...]
