The day the chicken died

I’m a vegetarian. Sort of. Occasionally I eat fish, but I don’t eat cows or pork or lamb or chicken ever. I wish I could say it’s because I think of the environment first and foremost, but I have no morals when it comes to food. The fact that I’m helping the planet in some [...]

End of September

Where did it go? I blinked and, poof, September is gone. I’m glad, actually. Now that I think about it, September sucked. It really did. Everything about it was hard.

Birthday Breakdowns

Hardly a Happy Birthday. No, not mine. My birthday isn’t until July. It was Bethenny’s, as in Bethenny Ever After on Bravo Bethenny. She just turned 40 on her show and for weeks prior she expressed, not just once, how she wanted the day to pass uneventfully. She didn’t want a party or big brouhaha, [...]

Waves

Yesterday, Friday, I woke up hearing about the devastation in Japan. An hour later I was running on the soft sand and a police helicopter hovered over me announcing “tsunami warning! clear the beach!” Um, I think you have the wrong continent. I understand that tsunamis can travel great distances and the effects are often [...]
