In se magna ruunt.
The world is falling in on me right now. I'm not suicidal, but I'd be okay with just blinking out of existence like I was never here. And don't go all 'It's a Wonderful Life' on me. Something is wrong... Continue reading

Vox nihili.
Here I am again. It has been years, hasn't it? But, I just can't leave it be. I've tried starting new blogs, new websites, tried on numerous domain names. In the end, there is no place like home. It is... Continue reading

Everything's coming up roses...
October. How can it be almost over? I feel like it just began. One thing I've always said about California is that I never get used to the roses blooming in wild abandon in the months that they would have... Continue reading

Blah, blah, blah.
Family is difficult. My middle sister has disowned me. My mom and dad think my youngest sister is either having mental problems and/or on drugs. I talk with her almost every day and I would think after my dad went... Continue reading

Long time no see.
My excuses: uh, we had a really freaking short summer. I don't even know what happened to it. I'm packing up the house. Yep. Gonna make sure we can flee the country in a weekend if need be. Okay, maybe... Continue reading

Stark raving mad.
Maybe I am crazy. What other explanation can there be? I think I am a wanderer in my heart and in my feet. I am a square peg trying to do the "right" thing. I have a wonderful husband and... Continue reading

Sing.
Music lives in the moment. A note resonates and then is gone, yet somehow they gather to create a song. We would do well to live our lives as if they were a great score, a masterpiece, the notes of... Continue reading

Fire! Fire!
So, not so long ago I was feeling stuck in a hair rut. You know how that goes, right? So, I dyed my hair back as close to my natural color as I could find. I loved it so of... Continue reading

Ice Skates.
I've been in building mode. Honestly, I've loved this house as much as I've hated it. When we moved in it looked like it hadn't been touched(except for the cheap renter's linoleum on the bathroom floor) since the 1960's? But... Continue reading

Goodbye to clocks ticking.
I suppose I'm feeling a little introspective, mix that with a sprinkle of self-indulgencence and well... here we go. It is between two and three in the morning. My stomach is bothering me, which is nothing new, but my usual... Continue reading

Bist du bei mir...
Bist Du Bei Mir was probably one of my favorite pieces of music that I learned back in high school. My vocal coach said I was like a myna bird and she didn't usually let students butcher music in German.... Continue reading

A bit maudlin
So, hi! The doc that scoped me and biopsied my stomach and esophagus managed not to perforate either, causing me to bleed internally in a profuse manner eventually degenerating into DIC and dying. So that's good, that, you know, I'm... Continue reading

Mild white vapors
"How now," he soliloquized at last, withdrawing the tube, "this smoking no longer soothes. Oh, my pipe! hard must it go with me if thy charm be gone! Here have I been unconsciously toiling, not pleasuring,—aye, and ignorantly smoking to windward all the while; to windward, and with such nervous w...

Happy New Year
OMG! I totally miss drinking a bottle of wine and over-sharing on the interwebs. So here is my belated update. Christmas letter style. (If you follow me on twitter you already know everything.) Let's see...where did we leave off? At the end of the summer Henry and I spent a month at Nic...

Let me know how they work out- I would totally be in the market- I can NEVER seem to get warm. (How sad since I live in California).

7 Technologies to Keep You Warm
I know it's freezing cold pretty much everywhere right now, but I maintain that there is no chill quite like the one you'll find in Minnesota. It's dry and to the bone. The only time I feel warm is during hot yoga and when I'm driving around in my car with the seat heat on full blast. Wearing ...
