PETRICHOR

I've heard that smell is the sense most strongly connected to memory. This morning, I woke up to the sound of rain down-pouring and thunder rolling. I love the snow but at some point every winter I realize that it's been a long time since I've watched and listened to... Continue reading

100 THINGS THAT ARE JOYFUL

having every sock out of the dryer paired with a mate ice cream listening to the ocean non-cloudy non-overcast non-grey days finger painting impromptu dance parties the moment in hide-and-go-seek where you're caught sitting cross-legged on a dolly and being pushed across a wide open smooth space. bonus points for...

WE'RE GOING ON A BOAT TRIP

WE GOT A BOOOOAAAAAAAT! For some reason instead of picturing a boat and the Bahamas and blue water and snorkeling and sailing when I think, "We got a boat!" and, "We're going on a boat trip!" I think of this children's story: I think because it has the same cadence... Continue reading

nevermind

Adele's Someone Like You has been on radio stations everywhere lately. As my shiny gold 1995 Buick Century includes neither a MP3 player hookup nor a CD player and there is nary a tape player in sight, I am left to the radio while driving around. Which. Is really not... Continue reading

one month

Today is October 5th. In one month, I will hop in a tantalizingly green 1995 Grand Marquis and leave the Boston area. The plan is to travel across the country and end up in a ski town. And then work there and snowboard for the season. There is so much... Continue reading

Jello vs Pudding

OH sometimes I feel like I am flailing about in a sea of jello. I don't even LIKE jello, so it makes it all the more un-enjoyable. I think the jello is just relative though. Because last year, I was far from jello. I was doing leisurely laps in chocolate... Continue reading

famous cartographer

i am the donut hole This was posted last spring by a coworker of mine. Another friend just recently asked about it. I had forgotten I was a famous cartographer. It's definitely not my best work, please don't judge my cartography skills on this one napkin. But it was exciting... Continue reading

preach it, girl

Tina Fey's book Bossypants is hysterical and embarassing to read on a train while commuting as you will find yourself shaking while holding in laughter and snorts. Or if you're like me, embarassing to read on a train while commuting as you will find yourself laughing and snorting out loud... Continue reading

laughter sounds the same in every language

This blog has been under (minor) construction when I have time to finagle with it. My goal is to write or share something once a day to try to get into a groove. Then maybe once I'm grooving, I can continue to design. Today I saw this video about balloons... Continue reading

I'm so hungry! Half-and-half is popular in the States (and I guess I assumed everywhere... but perhaps it's not!) It is simply half cream, half milk. A lot of people here use it in their coffee. You buy it from the store just as you would cream. I think people like it because it's creamier than milk (flavor-wise) but less fattening (I suppose) than just plain old cream. Your blog looks great, Emily!

man overboard

Oh hey there, Blogland. Apparently, I decided that blogging was too tricky and took 5 weeks off. I'm back. Most of my time was being spent as a camp counselor/camp director of a boating camp. Last week I finished up the 8 week run of camp and realized that we... Continue reading

I know what you're thinking. "From Maria von Trapp to the miracle of life?! SLOW DOWN, LINDSAY, it's only your second post." I know, I know. But might I add, "SLOW DOWN, blog reader, with your thoughts and assumptions that this post will be super deep and emotional." All I'm... Continue reading
