Here I am, back in Boulder.Todd is at his Writer's Group in the back of the coffee shop and I'm studying (okay "studying") in the front.A glorious faux hippie and her two very cute kids just sat down to eat a quick brunch and are now on their way out. They left a massive trail … Continue reading Playing with hippies.

It’s amazing to me how tired I’ve been this week. I think I’m pushing myself too hard sometimes, but there’s really no way to stop myself now. What with working full time and going to school on top of that and then trying to lose weight and get fit…it’s really exhausting. This is how I’ve … Continue reading Slipping into delirium…

Ah the Lenten Season is upon us. Every year, I make every effort to take part in this. I think it’s a somewhat important thing to do, even outside of religion.

Probably because, for the longest time, I never really thought for myself and hating Valentines Day was somewhat of a trendy thing to do. Again, I have no idea … Continue reading All you need is love, love is all you need.

'Tis the time of year that love is (apparently) in the air. Valentines Day is upon us and I've nearly forgotten because I've had no time to "decorate" the house for the holiday...I have dish towels and candy bowls and stuff that I usually set out, but this year, it went by the way-side. I'm … Continue reading For the love of….
