A wet slice of canvas. Old shoes. Grimy, dog-eared books from the tri-county library. These all have the earthen, warm childhood charm of so much memory. Nostalgia, if you will.

Love is something people crave. Many want to feel needed and wanted and loved unconditionally. When desiring love from a specific person, many want to possess all of the love a person has to give. They are jealous and…
Back at work. Sunday it was too cold and rainy for the Renaissance Festival, which is somewhere between Dayton and Cincy, I believe. Instead, my dad tackled the floor in the family room and we put down a new base. I p…
Let me just say briefly how good it is to be back with my family, even for a brief time. I'll be here on a more regular, semi-permanent basis in two weeks, after my last day at Case, November 4th. Also, I am SOOOO prou…
Oh, I forgot! I saw two devious and dubious chalkings along my walk to work this morning:
"I love Haliburton"
and
"Rush is Right."
Now, I'll admit that the number of Republicans I know has dropped in the last five …
This Friday, a hopeless romantic sits at her desk, answering phone calls helpfully, awaiting faculty requests to be made and handled and whining to be soothed. She reads adventures of the silly Anne-girl, a little heart…
Hot green tea in a cold office, wool sweather wrapped around, socks under these shoes and on these feet. Close parking space because of lateness, drowsiness, utter desire NOT to be here.
It is Wednesday, hump day, midd…
I think it is impossible to know somebody completely on this earth. I think that ultimate Love, eternal Love, is akin to eternal knowing, as with knowing God. It ties in to my ideas of Heaven and the afterlife and eter…
Cold are the toeses and tips of the noses, so deliciously rosy they areWhen the breath kisses frost, and the leaves are all tossed by the wind.The desire is to snuggle all warm and all toasty,and the fireplace is crackli…
Today I got concord grapes!
And wore my wool sweater! And don't worry, I love candy
corn. It's awful - sugar and mostly wax, but I admit to
loving that sick stuff. And I wore my clogs with grey wool
socks. And …
Actually, see my brother's blog for better info on the concert. Trent Reznor blows my mind.
And for those of you who don't want to read what I just posted, another list... My Favorite Autumn Things - my woolen cardigan…
Very busy indeed.
I don't much feel like writing about the work drama that happened. In the end, I went to visit my sick husband and wound up having an impromptu job interview over the weekend. It was a good...

Mostly an edit: Contract editing means I edit per word and it's
not a full-time real job. I would still be editing the dirty, fun
stuff. And if this goes through (and I can eke out some semblance
of a living), then…
Good conversations abound, with siblings, husband, friends, ex-loves. I like them!

I will be applying to work as a contract editor for Ellora's Cave, an erotic romance novel publishing company. As I understan…
Neil Gaiman is on NPR!
This morning, I:- took a shower- did some dishes- enjoyed the tree outside my window
- cleaned out my purse
- ate some Honey Nut Shredded Wheat, my new favorite cereal
- listened to Neil Ga…

The world moves whether or not we want it to. So, in order to
stay at peace, to be One, we have to move along with it. We have
to approach something new when we go w…
