Catching Up
December 16, 2012 Catching Up I haven’t written a post in some time, and now I write from about 35,000 feet. Or something. Not that I’m a pilot and sadly, I did see recently see Flight. Those of you who saw it understand my anxiety right now…. I am flying to Lima, Peru with […]
November 1 Thoughts
November 1, 2012 November 1 Thoughts The days speed by. I got home from Colorado almost a week ago, and in five days we go to the polls. Four days ago, our brothers and sisters on the American East Coast got slammed by Sandy. Many (my parents among them) are still out of power and […]
Modern Life and It’s Remedy – Part Two
September 14, 2012 Modern Life and It’s Remedy – Part Two Before we dive into Mr. Stills, some backstory. As some of you know, I spent the spring in New York doing a play. It was a transformational experience for a number of reasons. The first was performing the play itself. “Rapture Blister […]

Blessings

Giving
December 7, 2011 Giving Okay, it’s Christmas. The lights are going up and carols are being sung. I keep promising a blog but then don’t deliver. So Scrooge-y of me! So, this isn’t a blog, it’s a query: What do you give for Christmas that’s not a gift wrapped in a bow? I […]
Farewell to the To-Do Lists
