    Bookclub was great this morning. I took Sam with me so The Accountant could sleep in and she did great. I came prepared with a bag full of toys and cheerios; the wrapping paper and boxes from our Dirty Santa festivities also helped entertain. We had read John Grisham’s Skipping Christmas [...]

    I’ve had “Edge of Desire” from JM’s new album, Battle Studies, on repeat in my car for the past week. Sometimes I get hooked on a song and won’t let it go. This one in particular makes me all melancholy and wistful weird. It’s tortured, longing, desperate. It speaks to me for various personal reasons I [...]

  • melange (imagine accent mark over 1st e)

    Number of comments: 6
    I was going to title this post “smorgasbord” but when I looked it up in the dictionary because I wasn’t sure how to spell it, the word “melange” was there as another choice. And doesn’t ”melange” sound so much prettier and more exotic than “smorgasbord”, which sounds like something you hover over at Old [...]

    Wow, it’s Monday. And I’m at work. Boooooo. Usually Monday’s are my day off but I decided to be generous and offer to take Friday off instead since there is mass amounts of extremely important, world-changing, crime fighting, disease curing work to be done at The Man’s. Or maybe just [...]

    Ok, I have had two people in the past week tell me that I may have adult ADD! And ya know what? I’ve wondered this myself many times and it really wouldn’t surprise me all that much if a health care pro said “yep, you got it”.  And I wrote the crap below BEFORE [...]

    Sometimes (ok a lot of times) I catch myself completely zoning out.  As in spacey-brain, mind-wandering, free-thinking, day-dreamin’ girl. It’s like the opposite of meditation or something. Because when you meditate aren’t you supposed to be focused on something specific? Like various aspects of nature, deep breathing, or how your [...]
