(NOTE: I don’t often stand on soapboxes. But every now and then its time to pull it out, dust it off, and climb on up.)
Are you proud to be an American today? I am, and I’ll tell you why.
I’m proud to live in a country that allows us to elect our own [...]
There are several things I have discovered while moving these past few weeks. I thought I would share them with you in an effort to dissuade you from moving ever again in your entire life:
1. I am a dirty person - Now, I clean as good as the next person. I vacuum. I wash. I [...]
What do you do at 5:45 AM? I’ll tell you my new favorite thing to do - wake up and worry. For some reason, my body has decided that there are not enough waking hours in the day to worry as much as I am right now, so it has started waking me up at [...]
In one week I will be moving away from New Haven, and will have to begin driving to work everyday. For the past three years, I have been lucky enough to walk to work everyday because we live so close to campus.

(Even as I write this, I know the minute I post it I am going to get in trouble with my husband. He is always telling me that some conversations should just stay private between the two of us, and I’m pretty sure that he’ll think this is one of them. But I [...]
I don’t usually post twice in one day because a) I don’t want to overload you with mundane information about my life and b) I usually don’t have that much excitement to blog about. But I just got this email from my husband that said the Apple website has been down for two hours [...]
Yesterday I spent some time Googling on how to have a well-read, successful blog.
