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 [...] 
Back on April 9, 2010, I wrote a post called “I Have Never” Two years later, I’ve STILL never done those things. Nor these: — had a yeast infection — visited Europe — driven a bus — joined the “mile high club.” In fact… despite having flown many times, I’ve never used an [...] 
(A flashback to 8:55 PM, June 8. Year unknown, but I’d guess 2007.)

A few days ago, I saw the most beautiful scene; two friends, who clearly hadn’t seen each other in a very long time, were reunited. She was startled [...] 
( A flashback to October 27, 2008. Nothing like a good parable for a Sunday morning, eh?)
(“You gosh darn heathens! I’ve got half a mind to let you all drown THAT’S RIGHT I SAID IT.”) I don’t have a car. For me, getting to Wal-Mart requires at least three hours and [...]
(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 9, 2007) (Image source) Those who know me well know that I am deeply, fervently, profoundly paranoid. When life doesn’t present me enough worries, I create my own. Recently, I was struck by a sobering realization; I have hogged more than my share of the world’s romance. It’s true! [...] 
(Have you ever been in a doomed relationship? Have you ever been in a doomed relationship, yet convinced yourself things were peachy keen? This post from February 02, 2007 is a now-hilarious peek at top-notch denial and foreshadowing.)

(An old Myspace post from June 9, 2006. I have few souvenirs from that era, but this evidence suggests I haven’t changed. Curses!)
I’m being brutally forced to write six things about myself: 1. I love order and organization: My books are organized by subject, my shirts by style and [...] 
(Another flashback to my younger, more truthful days days. Originally posted at 11:54 PM, July 26… 2007? 2008? The post was originally called “Emo-tastic.” Apparently I mock my own feelings even while confessing them.)
Tonight, I consumed more than a thousand calories of ice cream. This, in effect, negates all the working out [...] 
(A flashback to May 4, 2007, two days after my first ever buzz cut. Classy, Myspace-style photo was taken immediately after the haircut.)
My hair is gone, suddenly. I’m adjusting to some changes: 1) Everyone in the world wants to to rub my head. On one hand, I love love love [...] |
