Leap #2
This blog has always been about leaps of one form or another– leaps of faith, leaps of insanity, leaps out of the way. At times, it may have felt like being thrown off a cliff, instead of a willing jump, but for the most part the leaps have been good decisions. Yesterday, I took another
Thursday Thoughts
It’s Thursday, and I feel like I should have words of wisdom for you. Actually, I feel like I should have some wisdom for me, too, but I guess we’re all out of luck on that one. Instead, I decided to once again check into how you all found me. According to our analytics, dear

I find myself with a couple of days on my own. When I realized this an odd little bout of motivation was sparked. Before I knew it, I had a list of (conservatively) 50 items that I would take care of while I had this time. They ranged from the mundane to the impossible (or
Toxic Things
It’s another slightly grim morning here in Los Angeles—the weather has decided to embrace “June Gloom” and all its glory. Perhaps it is the weather, or maybe it is just my mood, but I’ve been thinking about things that are toxic (sounds like a Jeopardy clue, doesn’t it?), and why we can’t quite get away
