And now, a note for Biden voters
THANK YOU. Especially those in red states – it must have felt futile, but THANK YOU. To every volunteer, organizer, phone banker (sorry I never answered), text banker, lit dropper, and canvasser who got out the vote: THANK YOU. To … Continue reading
And ANOTHER nice thing!
I had breakfast from my diner this morning!!!!! Please note – *from*, not *at*. My local diner has always done carryout, but they have done a bang up job of pivoting to pretty much all carryout. They added online ordering, … Continue reading
That was so nice!!
We had about 50 kids show up, all being smart, all little groups of 2-3 kids, and it did my heart so much good to see them having fun and doing something relatively normal. They’ve been through a lot this … Continue reading

Because I have no impulse control, over the past few months, I’ve acquired quite the collection of masks from Vera Bradley and now I pretty much can match a mask to any t-shirt I own. Granted, most of my t-shirts … Continue reading

Dear Russian folks
Sorry you’re going to be treated as guinea pigs in the vaccine race. I mean, shit, maybe it will work and not hurt folks and all will be OK – but I wouldn’t feel the slightest bit comfortable getting that … Continue reading
Home Sweet Home
