I’m back from three lovely days in New York. I could write and write about all of it…how I surprised myself by accepting another glass of wine from a stranger at the Met, then invited him to go skating at Rockefeller until midnight. Or how glorious it is to get fancy party shoes on sale [...]

Apparently, I’ve over-stayed my welcome in my single gal apartment. My small appliances have been staging a slow but steady protest, nay revolt, against me over the past seven or eight months and it’s reaching fever pitch. Without much fanfare, it began one nondescript day when the blender up and refused to blend. It simply [...]

Uh, I can’t believe I’m even about to say this, but apparently some people still smoke while they’re pregnant. Yeah, I know. I witnessed this firsthand on my way to the train station after work yesterday. Thankfully my commute has been Commuter free for the last three days, but I’d have rather not seen this [...]

Long walks along the lake before I curse its chilly, windswept expanse. And cozy Sundays at home under a blanket on the couch watching Netflix movies. After [...]

I saw The Cagey One last night. He is still cagey. Still an amazing kisser. And still a complete gentleman to me, despite all evidence to the contrary. For my part, I’m still incredibly intrigued by him. Still wanting more. And still protective of a very patched up, limping heart.I’ve pulled way back on this [...]

Which candidate would you rather have a beer with? For serious. This is the question that some voters, swing voters it is said, consider a legitimate means to picking their candidate. Now, before I go all CAPS LOCK on your ass, I’d like to at least say: Hooray for voting! Vote, vote, vote! That said, [...]

Remember when I made a passing reference to the dude I think has been hitting on me during my commute? The one who got all handsy that time? Well, since then he’s become a fixture on my way to and from work. He’s overly friendly and chatty and STILL handsy- what the heck is that [...]
