Close Encounters of the 45th Kind

The only thing I can add to the clamor surrounding the situation in Charlottesville is to condemn hatred, white supremacy, and anyone who seeks to make certain Americans feel uncomfortable in their…

I was feeling a little down on Thursday. It was so gloomy when I woke up at 8:30 that I thought it was 5 AM before I looked at the clock. It rained all day. I had work to do, plus I needed to finis…

Small gestures can have a huge impact. I’ve received several this week, and I’m so grateful!

How I Got to Be on Jeopardy!

I’ve been a fan of Jeopardy! for literally longer than I can remember. When one of my former neighbors, who lived across the street from me for the first several years of my life, found out t…

This blog post was supposed to go up on Friday, but I got a medium-bad migraine that day and couldn’t sit and type in front of a computer screen. :( But anyway, this week on one of the shows …

I’m big time concerned with the difference between asking for your girlfriend’s parents’ *permission* to propose to her vs. asking for their *blessing*.

That Time My Grandparents Went to Antarctica

Today would have been my grampy’s 100th birthday. I can just about hear him spouting off interesting facts about the number 100 and the etymology of the word “century.” When I was…

The Problem We STILL Live With

Hello. It’s been a while. My life has been absolutely insane. In January, I took a contract to write thirty 600-word articles for a VA loans company, and fortunately the friend I report to le…

I know this isn’t new news anymore, but I’ve been totally swamped the past two weeks, and I wanted to have my say.

Dear Barack, Michelle, Malia, Sasha, Shirley, Bo, and Sunny, I can’t believe it’s been eight years already. I’m sure you can’t believe it either. When I stop and think about…

Move over, Yuri. #EmusOnIce

We had heavy rain which froze, turning the farm into a skating rink. The emus are pretty sure the earth has betrayed them.

We did put down sand for them and there are clear places to walk but the emus insist on going right through the center of it… poorly. “Flail wildly at everything” is their modus operandi.

i know carrie’s death is devastating, and i know we’re all mourning the loss of such a bright soul, but in these dark times please don’t forget what she taught us.

don’t forget that your mental illness doesn’t define you, but it’s not something to be ashamed of, either. don’t forget that you are so much more than it. don’t forget that you are not alone in your fight.

don’t forget that a jewish woman was a princess, and a general, and that she kicked some major ass.

don’t forget that you are beautiful no matter what age, no matter how your body has changed, no matter what unrealistic standards you face.

don’t forget that carrie was so much more than just princess leia. she was an author, activist, mother, friend, inspiration.

don’t forget that carrie would be so, so proud of you, just for being here and for continuing to keep fighting.
