The sound of one wheel squeaking: November 2011
http://erinryanburdette.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
The sound of one wheel squeaking. Travails from motherhood, writersville, and accidental activism. Friday, November 11, 2011. As a new member of the Vogel Alcove Auxiliary Board (which supports the Vogel Alcove, a daycare center for homeless children), I am the chair for Story Time: each Tuesday morning, a volunteer arrives at the Alcove and reads books to several groups of children. As each group left, they were uniformly entranced by my hat-. Why haven’t I done that before? Because these children who h...

The sound of one wheel squeaking: October 2011

The sound of one wheel squeaking. Travails from motherhood, writersville, and accidental activism. Wednesday, October 26, 2011. Why haven't I written on my blog in so long, you may ask? Or you could have been embroiled in any number of completely unrelated tasks, and the question never crossed your mind, not even half of once). And the inertia washes over and I feel, as Billy Crystal said in When Harry Met Sally. It's not that nothing worthy to be written and/or mulled over has happened in the last sever...

The sound of one wheel squeaking: August 2011
http://erinryanburdette.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
The sound of one wheel squeaking. Travails from motherhood, writersville, and accidental activism. Tuesday, August 9, 2011. SUMMER VACATION ON THE CHEAP. You know, like I said. Summer. HOT. Hard to write. Even with one less kid around. (What's my excuse? A viscous stomach bug, lasting five full days. Mad Men season three.). And ate dinner twice at a joint named "Buffalo's" where Jack insists he had rattlesnake tacos. (God how I adore a good parentheses.). Like smiling, gurgling, rolling around on the flo...

The sound of one wheel squeaking: Poetry, musings, getting back to the page, and the absurdity of maturity
http://erinryanburdette.blogspot.com/2013/01/poetry-musings-getting-back-to-page-and.html
The sound of one wheel squeaking. Travails from motherhood, writersville, and accidental activism. Thursday, January 10, 2013. Poetry, musings, getting back to the page, and the absurdity of maturity. As sure as prehistoric fish grew legs. And sauntered off the beaches into forests. Working up some irregular verbs for their. First conversation, so three-year-old children. Enter the phase of name-calling. Every day a new one arrives and is added. To the repertoire. You Dumb Goopyhead,. An Inside Look at &...

The sound of one wheel squeaking: July 2011

The sound of one wheel squeaking. Travails from motherhood, writersville, and accidental activism. Thursday, July 7, 2011. TOO HOT to write. Were they being honest, this slogan would appear on brochures boasting city information. Is it really helping at this point to wear sunscreen? And he didn't bother to hide a snort. "It's a cut. All cuts leave scars. I don't have a magic wand." Patronizing doesn't really begin to cover it. Yet we just troll the streets and go to Central Market and watch Mad Men.
