Getting better all the time. (bettah, bettah, bett-ah). Monday, March 23, 2009. When the Levee Breaks. I've never been much of a Led Zeppelin fan. In fact, every morning, when my favorite classic rock station does a segment called "Get the Led Out" at 8AM, I cringe a little. Not that it's bad music, but wouldn't that regular feature be better served by something a little less, well, anti-morning? The message of the song: shit happens. Nothing you can do about it, except bitch (sit on the levee and mo...

Getting better all the time. (bettah, bettah, bett-ah). Monday, May 17, 2010. I have absolutely no business writing a blog post right now; I've got a talk to finish for tomorrow night and notes to write for a presentation next week, but I couldn't let the day pass without saying something about the passing of. As the years progressed, and changes were made to the cast, my dad usually had a comment or two about it. DA Nora Lewin (Dianne Wiest) was a bleeding heart liberal loser who'd never get re-elec...

Getting better all the time. (bettah, bettah, bett-ah). Tuesday, August 4, 2009. The MSN Italian to English translation says that the word. Means 'complete irrationality.' It is also a "feminine" adjective. How perfect that I have actually reached a state of complete irrationality at this point, and all because of a bridesmaid's dress. Sorry for the bad grammar, I'm just all mad now. At this point, all thoughts of smoothies and cookies had flown out of my head. I was left feeling a hot, sick sense of...

Getting better all the time. (bettah, bettah, bett-ah). Wednesday, October 14, 2009. Save yourself. Find yourself. Reclaim your soul from darkness and despair. Shine your light and proclaim your Truth from the hilltops, from the mountaintops, from your desktops and your laptops. But until now, I have never been particularly interested in saving myself. I wanted to save the world. But I am not one of those heroines. And this is not one of those stories. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Getting better all the time. (bettah, bettah, bett-ah). Tuesday, October 13, 2009. Dispatches from the Permanent Vacation. There happens to be a really cute guy one table over at Borders, which is not a bad thing. But talk to him? Yeah right. Hi, I'm a garden-variety 39 year old writer wannabe with no job. And he's probably unemployed too. Fabulous. Oh, and he just left. Probably because I exude unhappiness and stress like a subway car at rush hour.). Maybe that's why it's so damn crowded? My promises to...

Getting better all the time. (bettah, bettah, bett-ah). Thursday, May 7, 2009. O Captain, my Captain. Any time I emailed Frank, my salutation was those timeless words from Uncle Walt:. O Captain, my Captain. I found out later that this was what many of Frank's students called him, perhaps using the honorific from. Or acknowledging Frank's pitch-perfect Jean-Luc Picard impersonation. But I would like to think that I was the first to address him thusly, even though I'm sure I wasn't. A Hard Day's Night.

Getting better all the time. (bettah, bettah, bett-ah). Friday, April 10, 2009. Immediate Notification of the Book Deal. I must admit that when the contract arrived in my inbox, I was in a very undignified place, involving multi-tasking in the bathroom and simultaneously powering up my Blackberry. (No, not that! Get your mind out of the gutter! Let me tell you, yesterday I found out that it is not easy to utter a. Blessing with a toothbrush in your mouth. Thus, I am pleased to announce that my novel,.

Getting better all the time. (bettah, bettah, bett-ah). Monday, September 14, 2009. The To-Don't List for 5770. Coming back from the wedding (which was wonderful! Little did I know that things were about to get worse. That Wednesday, I was told that my company was eliminating three positions. Mine would be one of them. I know none of it is forever, but it is depressing just the same. Which leads me to where I am now - while I'm trying to focus on the positive (no rent check every month! 2 Stop coveting R...
