The truth is, I’m not a bad cook when I feel like going to the effort. But cooking elaborate things for just myself is lame, so I don’t really do it. My roommate probably thinks the only things I know how to “cook” are spaghetti, frozen lasagna, salad, and rice in the rice maker (and […]
So, I got an award for this poor excuse for a blog. I have a feeling it is based more on my person than my blog, since this thing has been neglected for so long. Caryn tagged me for this almost 2 months ago, and apparently I just suck. But I won’t make that one […]
I’ve been drinking coffee since I was about 3 years old. Well, “drinking coffee”. When I was a baby we lived in Petaluma. After we moved to where I grew up, every once in a while we’d go to a hardware store there that was owned by family friends- M. Maselli & Sons. (aside: if […]
I had the following chat with my friend Caryn earlier. Girly stuff is only in the first couple sentences. Caryn: I’m starting to get pms cramps (ie. like, a week or so before my period). and I forgot how awful they were without birth control. me: aww Caryn: like, I’m just doing my work thing […]
you are bound to have some interesting chats. Unfortunately, working for a lawyer, I can rarely talk about them, let alone publish them on my blog. But this one seemed safe enough. The caller is a longtime client and also good friend of my boss. I talk to him a few times a week. Me: […]
Buh. It’s been what, like, 2 months since I said I wanted to be a better blogger, and then total radio silence? I still do want to get back to blogging. I do sort of miss it. I think I just have too many hobbies or something. I just noticed that I only posted 9 […]
My first post in my new digs… I’ve been trying to find time or inspiration to post here for a couple of weeks now. And now that I’ve found at least the inspiration (if not really the time since I should be working right now) I’m going to be selfish for a moment and talk […]
Hockey: The most awesome thing ever. Except babies. And weddings. So… third most awesome thing ever? But hockey happens with far greater frequency in my life than weddings or babies, so I am back to most awesome thing ever unless it is directly competing with a wedding or a baby. It’s fun to watch, it’s […]
I turned 33 last Thursday. That really put a few things into perspective. I’ve had goals for a lot of the milestone ages, and for the most part, I think those goals have gone unmet. Sometimes that has been good, like the goal of being married and having my first kid by the time I […]
When I moved 3 weeks ago, I brought with me an embarrassing amount of stuff, a good 2/3 of which I haven’t seen in 5 years because it’s been in the garage or the attic. I spent most of the weekend going through boxes, sorting into garbage, recycle, yard sale and keep boxes. I’m pleased […]
