I have mixed emotions in response to the news that Osama bin Laden was captured and killed. On one hand, I am relieved and glad that the world is rid of the mastermind of an evil that couldn’t even be comprehended prior to September 11, 2001. Who could ever have imagined that there were people [...]

Sorry things have been so quiet on the blog this week. I have some major non-writing related things going on right now, including: In a few weeks, we’ll be putting our house on the market. I won’t bore you with the reasons why other than to say it’s the right thing for us to do [...]

Three months from today I will be on the ground in Italy!! Totally non sequitur, I know, but it just had to be said. In other news, I recently donned my hard hat to do some major construction on my blogrolls. I hadn’t looked at them for weeks, and they were a total mess. There [...]

…I will be on vacation this week. I will not have Internet access. In fact, by the time you get this letter I will probably be on horseback somewhere in the middle of the Colorado wilderness. Somewhere where you will not be able to tempt me with your hundreds of scintillating blog posts on topics [...]

I mentioned once before that I secretly wish I could be an actress. It just seems like it would be so liberating to pretend to be someone else for a while. Well, it’s not going to happen in real life, but every once in a while my dreams step in to fill the gap. For [...]
