I have a love hate relationship with the way in which technology has sculpted our connection to and consumption of information. This isn't about the quality of our information, that's a whole different tale to tell, I'm talking about the way in which we interact with it. So many of us take in data in … Continue reading what’s up doc…

the best and worst of drafts…
Sometimes I start to write something and find myself at a loss for words. Other times the words flow too freely and I wind up uncomfortable with the thought of sharing the words I've splashed across the screen. Still others I recognize my inane babble for what it is and save you all the woe … Continue reading the best and worst of drafts…
that time a guy with a red goatee broke into my home…
It started off as a fairly typical Monday morning. Typical within Monday parameters anyway. My kid wasn't home Sunday night. Rick stayed over but got up early to head into town for a standing Monday morning meeting. I snoozed. And then in typical Monday fashion I woke on my own shortly before 8:00 AM. I … Continue reading that time a guy with a red goatee broke into my home…
things not to do with an evening to myself…
As I sit here on the sofa with a kitty to each side of me the evening unfurling like a spool of shiny ribbon I'm paralyzed as I contemplate the possibilities. My mind races. I could do anything. Or nearly anything. But what? Because I've already had brunch today. And gotten a hair cut. And … Continue reading things not to do with an evening to myself…
silence is golden – or – how we didn’t talk about age of ultron for 3 days…
First I should tell you that this post is not about Avengers: Age of Ultron. There will be no information about the movie. No spoilers. No nothing. I'm not even going to tell you what I think of the movie. Okay fine, maybe I'll tell you if I liked it. Because it's a superhero movie... … Continue reading silence is golden – or – how we didn’t talk about age of ultron for 3 days…
the making of a twitter bio…
Last night as I was walking down the street I was in the tweeting kind of mood. The sky was blue but the sun was just starting to hint at its intent to set. It was warm enough that I didn't need a jacket but cool enough that I could wear a hoodie without overheating. … Continue reading the making of a twitter bio…
adding things to the wishlist…
You know that moment when you somehow find yourself online shopping for a plaster sculpture of faux taxidermy deer head with antlers? And then you're super excited when you find it. And that it comes in red! And then you realize that you have no fucking business being on the internet ever again. Yeah, I'm in it.
life lessons with cami…
Some parts of my life are pretty exciting, new and different every day. But there are some things that remain the same and one of those is my daily frustration with kids riding their bikes to school and not wearing a helmet. Okay, let's be real. Not just kids. Grown ass adults too. Hey dumbass! Put … Continue reading life lessons with cami…
it’s like you don’t even know me…
I've spent the past couple of days in the sunny desert city of Phoenix, Arizona. And much like every trip I've taken in my life I find I discover something new with every trip. Take something in at every location. Grow as a person with every new corner of the world I see. And often … Continue reading it’s like you don’t even know me…
kermit in a blender…
Last week as I stood at the counter mincing chicken breast K stood beside me shelling edamame. Conversation drifted this way and that before we finally landed on a topic she wanted to discuss. "Mama, have you ever made something too horrible to eat?" It's a plain enough question. But I can't always tell what's … Continue reading kermit in a blender…
