Five years. Last week, though (like the bad little blogger I’ve been lately) I only just realized, marked five years for me as a blogger. Reflecting on that time, both upon blogging and the content on which I write, I’ve experienced quite a bit of Life over those years… I fell in love. And out [...]

Yesterday afternoon, I realized I had put on and was wearing my underwear inside out…for the second time this week. To say I’m a bit distracted, a bit stressed, even a bit overwhelmed might come close to describing the tornado of activity and change I’ve experienced in the past two months. Might. Packing, packing, and more packing of [...]

So uh…it’s been a while. Unintentionally, of course. The thing is, sometimes I get busy with things like deciding which jammies to wear next, napping on the couch with Mantracker on the Science channel in the background (seriously addicted), throwing in the towel and reading only the cartoon captions from my backlog of The New Yorker issues, and ordering [...]

You know, depression is a funny thing. Not funny “Ha Ha,” of course. No. Funny in the sense that it can possess you so completely that you forget where you end and it begins. You lose track of yourself in a way one would never think possible. You are depression. And then, you try a [...]

I came across an interesting premise in blogging while reading Susannah Conway’s beautiful blog today. Dust off a few various and sundry posts, then highlight one from another blogger you admire. Susannah’s done so, and, if you’ll indulge me, I’d like to do the same. In particular, I’m trotting out the following (and bending the [...]

Tomorrow, I turn 30. 3-0. As in the age that I thought at the beginning of my twenties I’d be married and be done having all the kids I planned to have. Beyond that I hadn’t invested much thought. It was my small town mentality at work, my “worldview” as you could call it. And, [...]

I’m a person prone to questioning things, prone to doubt. In fact, I question everything, including myself. It’s just the way I am, the way I’ve always been. Except where blogging is concerned. When I began blogging nearly four years ago, I didn’t really “think it through.” I had no grand plans or ideas about [...]
