Patrick White on fire. You’re alright. →. August 12, 2014 · 10:38 pm. Et tu, Robin? It’s been a hell of a month, so many conflicts, so many children dying, a disease raging in Africa, and yet it was only when Robin Williams died did I cry. He made a bleak world funny and found the funny in a bleak world. But there is a price to be paid.

Notes from a Tri-County Woman. Musings about life in the Hudson Valley (NY) from the publisher of a regional woman's lifestyle magazine. Saturday, July 13, 2013. As the mother of a teen son who looks an awful lot like Trayvon Martin, the trial over his murder is very emotionally draining for me - so much so that I cannot yet even write about it. Because it needs to be talked about, here is a guest post from a friend who sums up that thing. That I just can't verbalize quite yet very eloquently:. Watermark...

Last weekend was one of the best I'd spent with friends in a long time. I traveled to a horse farm outside of Baltimore to hang with 11 women I'd "met" on an Internet message board for breast cancer survivors. Before the trip, I'd only met two of them in person. And the "What time should we plan to arrive? This weekend, after digesting more bad new...

http://breastcancerchronicles.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Musings about the absurdity of cancer. Monday, September 10, 2012. This is not about breast cancer per se - just cancer in general. She's still a sneaky something else and I detest her as a result. A few weeks ago, my beloved had me pick him up from the car repair shop as his vehicle was having a "check engine" light issue. When he got in my car, he asked if we could swing by his brother's house for a bit because he HAD TO meet him at 2:15PM. Yesterday, his wife showed us a picture the two of them had ta...

http://breastcancerchronicles.blogspot.com/2014/12/threshold.html
Musings about the absurdity of cancer. Friday, December 12, 2014. While I was looking for some Christmas labels a few days ago, I found a picture of my mom I'd taken a while back. My parents had come to visit me in Philly where I was living and working as a photographer for an area newspaper in the summer of 1990. I'd graduated from college about two years before. My graduation year was the same one in which my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. Time is fleeting for all of us as life really can turn o...
