Wow, you guys (world) sure missed a lot of things in my life by not being me.  I mean.  I haven’t been blogging, so how could you possibly know?  It’s ok.  I’ll catch you up.
First of all, yes.  The title of this blog is none other than the best line of the Chicago Fire kid’s [...]

That’s Coleridge.  I like it because it’s gross and the rhythm is perfect.  The line break is between things and lived.  If you’re wondering.  Anyway.  Upward, not northward!  Here we go.
I have a vacation coming up.  This is wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.  There is sure to be a leisurely perusal of books I’ve already read, piping hot paper [...]

I guess because I have nothing really to write about I will resort to the Amy Classic Post Format.  The list, complete with my own interview-style questions:
1.  Flowers on Desk this week?  Pink lilies, with little magenta prickly things mixed in.  They’re the purest pink lilies I have ever seen.

Today I’m tired.  It’s been building.  This morning I woke up and I looked at my clock and I could not, for the life of me, make my eyes work.  I blinked and blinked.  Granted, I wasn’t wearing glasses so that may have been part of the problem right there.  I could see numbers, but [...]

So here’s what’s new with me:  [...]

Ok.  I will tell you a. lot. more about the Woman’s Retreat.  If you’re not interested, no big, but some people were asking about it.  People who love me, so:
Friday night:  Jill and I arrive early to set up and check out the space.  We have just enough time to get the gift bags, oranges, [...]

Today is a good day.  I’m wearing a skirt, so.  You know what that means.  A good day.
I did kind of drop off the blogging planet.  There are two reasons for this.  One, because my computer at work can’t always keep up with the changing layout of wordpress.  Which admittedly only changed once, but whatev.  [...]

(thats a line from a Hold Steady song.  They love Ybor City)
So Wayne and I totally pulled off Roadtripapolooza 2009!  A trip planned specifically because a) we love The Hold Steady and b) we couldn’t get tickets last time they were in town.  Well.  Technically I could from a sketchy man named Biff who said [...]

We beat it! It only cost like 40 Dave and Buster’s points (half price no less, so, for technical purposes, like 80) but we still had enough to play ski-ball afterwards.   I tried to take a picture of our names in the high scores section but I wasn’t fast enough with the camera  And then we [...]

Luckily, Gillian tagged me on this on her blog (Lint of Pocket, to your right) and since it’s Monday and I managed to lose like 3 hours of sleep in the time change somehow (magic) I can answer these handy questions instead of wondering if there’s anything good to write about. It’s an award with [...]
