You never said it, you didn’t really ever say anything, but you didn’t think I was worth the effort. And I almost believed you were right. You thought the shine was gone from me and I wasn’t exciting or new or out of the ordinary. And I almost believed you were right. You thought everything […]
I am finding that there are a few words lacking in your current edition. I respectfully submit the following for inclusion in the 2015 version.

“To everything, there is a season.” This is apparently my season of figuring out how to clone myself. This picture -> is an actual page from our family calendar.

#426: Staying at the Harvard Club I strangely do not know even one person who went to Harvard. Correction, I know one person, a former boss who barely acknowledged my existence for about four years.

This is me at Project: Underblog. Which you know if you’ve been around here. But still – it is! I am one of their #31days31voices. I am a VOICE I tell you! This is also me pretending I am a food blogger. Although I am not. And now I am hungry because I posted all […]
