http://www.youngadultish.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Stories, Stuff, and Things. Wednesday, October 16, 2013. No Crying Over Broken Mugs. So this happened. And I can. T help but wonder if it. S wildly symbolic. I. Ve been struggling with writing a tough chapter. That happens when you. Re a writer. Sometimes I put off dealing with tough chapters by distracting myself with making character playlists on Spotify, doing laundry and dishes or making repetitious runs to the Goodwill. But eventually, finally, I force my ass in the chair and write. Los Angeles, CA.

Who Says You Can't Go Home?: November 2011
http://whosaysyoucantgohomecanj.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Who Says You Can't Go Home? On Moving and Moving On. Sunday, November 13, 2011. Occupy Wall Street: Much Needed Red Ink. Slovenian scholar Slavoj Zizek spoke to the OWS crowd in early October, and his comments shed some light on perhaps why such a radical movement has attracted widespread attention/consideration (even support? From the "mainstream" and thus become a topic that requires such discretion in discussion. He can explain it better than I, so see below:. So what are we doing here? But I like to ...

This Is My New Normal. Ramblings from a regretfully by-the-rules domestic goddess who once fancied herself a fearless rebel. Friday, April 22, 2011. Because Facebook Doesn't Seem To Be The Right Audience. I needed to write down a couple of hilarious things that B has said over the past couple of weeks. The kid comes up with some downright doozies! But I digress. This is about the funny stuff, not the sad stuff. Just go to sister.com! Ahhhhe is too much. Now, I was raised a fine Catholic girl. I reali...

This Is My New Normal. Ramblings from a regretfully by-the-rules domestic goddess who once fancied herself a fearless rebel. Tuesday, October 19, 2010. Fuck You, Universe. I feel like I have just had the wind knocked out of me. As though someone has told me of a death in my family. That is the heaviness I feel in every molecule of my body at this moment. Please, please let this be a bad dream. I know it sounds dramatic, but this is so important to our entire family. I am absolutely crushed right now.

This Is My New Normal. Ramblings from a regretfully by-the-rules domestic goddess who once fancied herself a fearless rebel. Sunday, May 13, 2012. I feel inspired to write today after a nearly six month hiatus. This last year, plus some, has been such a whirlwind of emotion and growing, educating and gaining knowledge. Wouldn't you know that inspiration is short-lived as B interrupted it only two sentences in to ask for a sandwich.sigh). Soas I was saying. Told me that said neurologist is highly regarded...

Wednesday, April 9, 2014. APPROPRIATE ACTIVITIES FOR UNCONVENTIONAL CHEFS. I am a a terrible cook. It's one of those truisms I just can't deny. I've burned rice more times than I can count, I've baked brownies so repulsive they refused to come out of the pan, and my homemade meals frequently inspire last minute calls for outsourced pizza. Despite all of this, I continue to believe in miracles. I've always been most intimidated by tomatoes. Whenever I try to dice one, it turns into a mushy mess. The woman...

Stories, Stuff, and Things. Thursday, June 27, 2013. Nine Smells That Take Me Back to High School. My sense of smell is as good as my memory. Hence, the following list. Oh, the allure of a boy drenched in The Drak and sporting a Cliff Huxtable-inspired sweater. Please, oh, please let him ask me to dance to Spandau Ballet’s “True.”. The smell of coconut suntan oil takes me back to every lazy high school day I spent on the beach, which was every lazy high school day I ever had. My mom’s perfume was t...

Wednesday, November 14, 2012. International Bright Young Thing. 8220;Nobody can discover the world for somebody else. Only when we discover it for ourselves does it become common ground and a common bond and we cease to be alone.”. Raised in an SOS Village in Uganda, Olivia attended high school in Ghana and is now a first year student at Kalamazoo College in Michigan.
