I picture that one day when I have a place of my own, one that fits me and has the colors and furniture to suit me, that I’ll want to linger in every corner. I’ll lie in the middle of the bed and marvel at shades of taupe, pinch myself that the bedside lamps are [...]

So when you find out you’ll be a panel speaker at this year’s conference, do you:
a) contemplate which of your incognito wine vessels you’ll sneak into the session, enabling you to sound minimally coherent while droning on about your cats,b) ponder the location of your unfilled emergency Xanax prescription (yes, I have one that isn’t [...]
Time, time, time. See what’s become of me.

In the early days of each season of American Idol, watching the show is akin to incurring closed head trauma, freeing up much time to post. The thoughts behind this one aren’t really fully formed yet, but I’m going to go for it anyway given the ample 10 minutes before bed and a lack [...]
Thanks for listening. No pressure to comment.

I’ve noticed a trend lately in blogging, most notably over at Indie Bloggers: posts without comments - including several of mine - abound.

A few of us have been griping (I know that’s a surprise) for some time about feeling underrepresented in the Blogosphere. There are organizations for female bloggers, parent bloggers, foodies, and politicos, but those of us who write about, well . . . us, are just sort of floating around without anchor. Think [...]

It’s Blog Crush Day, a bona fide holiday unlike those asshat Hallmark holidays like “Children’s Day” (like when isn’t it?!?) and “Arbor Day” (thanks, trees!), as established by two very fine blogger gals I know and love (via the information superhighway; like, we’ve never dated).
This blog crush makes me feel a little like I’m in [...]

I have to admit that it has been one of the best online relationships I’ve ever had. We have spent an awful lot of time together – it’s embarrassing, really – late nights until I almost couldn’t keep my eyes open, early mornings, moments I’d steal away while at work just to see what he [...]
