What’s on the iPod: Into the Mystic by Van Morrison We woke up yesterday morning to about 6 inches of snow, more or less. Unlike the city to our east, we were spared the remaining 12 inches. Not that it makes me happy to say that – I love snow from the first flake right…
What to Call Yourself
What I’m reading: Justine by Lawrence DurrellWhat’s on the iPod: Swim Until You Can’t See Land by Frightened Rabbit Was Santa good to you?

Bread Crumbs
What’s on the iPod: Sea of No Cares by Great Big Sea Super day yesterday. I accomplished much more than I thought I would, and I still had time left over at the end of the day to relax. That’s almost unheard of – time to relax in December. I had my shopping done five…
Happy Resolution Day
What’s on the iPod: So Long, Sweet Misery by Brett Dennen If you heard rejoicing yesterday, that would be me. Yesterday was an AMEN day. As I sat trying to get the meat of an article and two small projects completed, a favorite client came knocking with not one, but two projects due by the…
