First, my short hair is starting to grow on me. Well, not literally, but emotionally speaking, I no longer want to sit in a quiet corner, slowing rocking back and forth, reminiscing about the days I could still put it in a pony tail. In fact, I rather like it, now that I’ve figured out [...]
Let’s see if I can piss off the rest of my readers

Haven’t talked about poo in a long while. Now’s a good a time as any to present a couple nuggets worth repeating. Because why not? And it’s all I got. I sincerely apologize in advance. Us: *sitting on the lawn in the backyard after work, talking about our days, enjoying the warmth of the early [...]

It’s not often a movie comes along that knocks me off my feet, rendering me absolutely stunned by its brilliance and beauty. I think the last movie that truly did that to me was American Beauty, and that was eons ago. True, I’m not easily impressed when it comes to movies. In fact, I don’t [...]
I’m going to hell! The worst place in the world! With devils and those caves and the ragged clothing! And the heat! My god, the heat!

Today is the first day of summer, but you really wouldn’t know it around here yet, as it’s been unofficially said that summer doesn’t officially begin in Seattle until after Fourth of July. There is, however, a modicum of redemption for summer’s latency because the perfectly mild days seem to last a wee bit longer [...]
Hair yesterday, gone today

I had my hair cut yesterday. Short. And I’m not sure I like it yet. In fact, I think I am feeling a little cutter’s remorse for being so bold this time. I’ve had short hair before, but I don’t remember feeling this kind of loss right after the cut. It’s not like my hair [...]

My mom likes to pretend she’s not chomping at the bit for Roth and I to start having kids. She plays it cool when I talk about the prospect of us getting pregnant in a couple years, but when it comes down to it, I know she can’t wait for the day she gets “the [...]
Party of two

“You are a spoiled, spoiled woman,” my mom said to me on the phone last night as I described the dinner Roth was about to prepare on the eve of our two-year wedding anniversary: pan-seared Copper River salmon topped with a creamy crimini mushroom sauce, spicy garlic rapini and a green salad. Simple, but sublime. [...]

I finally saw the new Pirates of the Caribbean movie yesterday, and I have to say it wasn’t totally craptastic, as I expected it to be. Completely ridiculous, yes, but also entertaining in that utterly mindless sort of way. Much like Keira Knightley’s acting. Or severe lack thereof. I owe my enjoyment of the movie [...]
I want details and I want them right now. I don’t have a job, I have no place to go. You’re not in the mood? Well you get in the mood!

I knew this would happen. In the nearly three years I’ve kept this blog, turns out there are practically no facets of my life I haven’t covered in some shape or form. I can point to a previously published post to answer practically all of your questions so far, with a couple exceptions, and I [...]
