on August 20, 2010 in Letters From the Editor

So, I won’t even kid you that while you’re reading this, I’m mentally still in NY, getting my BlogHer on, eating pizza, talking to people. . It’s true that places can be cool and fun, but I think that most people forget one of the most important things. Packing and unpacking. Suitcases would lay half [...]

A year ago a chick sat at a table and said,” This actually sort of stinks!” Not that the table stank. Neither did the company. Nor did the whole reason for being there. It was something else.

Letters From/To the Editor…dude, I feel ripped off because it should be Letters-From-Readers-That-Hope-To-Be-Writers-And-Are-Willing-To-Tell-You-Your-Hair-Looks-Extra-Shiny-Today. Although, I’m never against a good hair compliment.

We are nice people. Well. We aren’t mean people. Well. Children don’t run and cry when we come down the street. Usually. We have learned to be nicer people. It means no hissing at strangers (which is a lot). It means no flailing about when Girl Scouts come to the door.

So, flying in the face of all I think is right and good in the world, I was guilted into some yard work this weekend. You heard me right. YARD WORK. Which, apparently, involves more than just picking up the beer bottles and making sure the lawn guys have a clear path to the weeds [...]

on October 28, 2009 in Identity

Flying is really sort of expensive.  Did you know that? Something about the idea of defying gravity in a gas tank with wings is so cool that we pay ridiculous amounts of money to do it. And it becomes costly. Even if you don’t buy the $9 cocktails, the $3 blanket and the $13 piece [...]
