I turned on the TV this morning (hello, old friend!), and there is an animated morning show playing. I was intrigued by the very “girl power” dialogue that was being bandied about, so I’m sitting here watching for a minute. Also, the remote is all the way across the room, and the effort to get
I’m not a strong conversationalist. As I’ve mentioned before, I’m particularly bad with strangers (by the way, I classify anyone who I have not known and spoken to every day for at least five years as a stranger).

I should mention that Casey was very, very attractive. So if you are reading this Casey
I am sitting in the departure lounge thinking profound thoughts like: How often is the freeway closed at 4:30 in the morning? Wondering why I brought along a curling iron, and why it seemed lethal this morning? Upgrading my ticket might have been easier had all my ff miles not expired (probably yesterday). Is wondering
I lost a bet. No, not the one with God that has resulted in the life I’m currently leading. It started when I recklessly tried to employ irony, and ended when I foolishly agreed to go clubbing with LD. No, I’m not kidding. I’m now contractually obligated to go clubbing. And no, “clubbing” is not
