His name flashes on my caller ID. His voice is on my voicemail.
“I was just thinking of you,” he says breezily.
“I was thinking how nice it would be to see you, to talk to you again.”
And then, “I miss you.”
I didn’t want to hear it. Any of it. I had steeled my heart against his [...]

Best Friend Ever got married over the weekend, and in her true tasteful style no less (strapless sweetheart neckline, mermaid silhouette, raw ivory silk, a single gardenia in her hair).
Although I seem to have been in quite the pitiful state when they got engaged on Easter last year, and despite the irony of [...]

Unwittingly, I found myself rehearsing The Speech in the shower this morning. I guess without ever really making a conscious decision about it, I’ve decided to end it with North Shore.

So I’ve been dating and I’m at the point where it’s begun to feel…….limiting. And it’s making me restless. Like one of those infuriating girls in a novel who has the good luck to meet and charm the “good on paper” guy, only to lope off with a drummer or a grad student or an [...]

Now that I’ve had the (perhaps requisite) time to reflect upon the black taffeta bubble-skirted wedding hoopla, I’m at last ready to regale you (if anyone actually still frequents this sadly kept blog) with the details.
