Some of you are well acquainted with the Legend of Aardvark Day. Others may dimly recall that every May 8 since 1999, I’ve made an effort to be caught on film. A big deadline cast a pall over my day. I felt cheated… until I remembered that May 8 always fell during Finals Week in [...] 
When we moved from New Mexico to Pennsylvania in August of 2010, my entire wardrobe fit in one suitcase and one carry-on— this included two large hats (toppy and floppy) PLUS all my linens. Impressed? I sure was. That bite-size wardrobe expanded in the following months, mostly with what Imogen calls “it’ll do [...] 
Today, Autumn wrote about The Conundrum of Body Hair. I’m chiming in. I recently went about three months without shaving my underarms, two and a half months without shaving my legs.

(At the end of a long day, it’s nice to throw off your clothes, drop your scythe, and lounge on a mountaintop alter with your peacock. Image source.) The very best thing about blogging is getting to know fantastic people. On November 11, 2006, I posted the following words to [...] 
(A flashback to May 4, 2007, two days after my first ever buzz cut. Classy, Myspace-style photo was taken immediately after the haircut.)
