Live from Nebraska
I'm still away on a family oriented holiday vacation of sorts. Usually holiday/family trips are more active than relaxing - trying to maximize time and interactions. This time though, due to the planning issues previously posted, I'm spending the 2nd half of my time w/ just my oldest (closest) sister and her husband in their fantastic new home ( Read more... ) -
(Untitled)
I got all depressed yesterday about my upcoming Thanksgiving trip. I booked it soon after my trip last summer to see my family. That trip was unique in that I was with them for more time than usual (7 days as opposed to 3 or 4) and we spent much of the time at some cabins away from everyone's home, so people were more in vaca mode than ( Read more... ) -

Happy Birthday to Me
So - yesterday was my birthday.
It was an odd one. A good one, but odd.
I had the day off and had it semi-planned out. I slept in (for the first time in the new place), got up and went to my new neighborhood coffee shop for a breakfast sandwich and americano and started a new book (my first Toni Morrison book, The Bluest Eye - fantastic). Went ( Read more... ) -
Literally...
I'm moving. After house-sitting for D for two weeks, alone, I determined that I need to have my own place. Now. I realized this w/i 48 hours of staying at his place. (Much gratitude to him and the Yo, since the only real reason for being there was the fish, which could have easily come over to my house. He knew what I needed. What a ( Read more... ) -
Football
Saw Built to Spill last Sat on the last night of their tour w/ Camper Van Beethoven. I had wanted to see the show, but lost heart, then drug myself out at the last minute. It was possibly one of the best BTS shows I've seen, and CVB started slow but made up for it by mid-set. They were really good... 'When I Win the Lottery' reminded me why they ( Read more... ) -
Last night
My Tuesday afternoons are becoming... unproductive. The last few I feel I've been pretty tired so I've needed rest, so maybe that's all I'm seeing. Still - I don't want to become slothful. I'm done w/ work at noon and don't have my private practice clients until 6, so there's a lot of time I could make use of.
I just agreed to a writing project ( Read more... ) -
I'm HEALED!!
Man. That was a fantastic weekend. Between 6 pm Fri and 5:15pm Sunday, I left home for only 3.5 hours Sat for a football game and 2 hrs Sat night for an on-call outreach. I took the opportunity to hole up inside, safe from the rain and bad men/women, catch up Lost and Sopranos and some movies I've put off, watched football, slept, rested, read, ( Read more... ) -
OMG - how eeeerrrrie....
The last time I posted was 9/11!!!! I just got shivers!
Good lord... I can't believe it's been so long. There's a lot of water under that bridge. I've got a lot to say, I've got a fine shuffle of Outkast and MIA tearing down my speakers, a plate of spinach and paneer on rice in front of me, and I feel like doing nothing other than sitting ( Read more... )
