Thoughts, inspiration, balance… and randomness
Baby don't hurt me... no more... Sorry, couldn't help myself. I was going to put the SNL skit on here, but figured more people probably hadn't seen the Haddaway official video. How sweet is this Dracula-turned-Rocky Horror mansion with the quick 90's zoom-in and zoom-out effect? I'm asking this question because the definition of marriage … Continue reading What is Love?
This is like one of my favs of all time.... K-Ci and Jojo know what's up, even years later. The basis of this song (if you've lived under a rock or were born after 1992) is a dude (well I guess two dudes, since they are singing a duet. With magical silky man voices. That … Continue reading Lately
Time is a funny thing. A minute can seem to whiz by when you're hitting the snooze button, but take forever when you are running on a treadmill. It can pass and you not even know it when you realize you've lived somewhere 10 or 15 years. Or see your baby graduate from high school. … Continue reading Time
Sometimes poems speak better than my own words. i carry your heart with me - E.E. Cummings i carry your heart with me (i carry it in my heart) i am never without it (anywhere i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done by only me is your doing, my darling) i … Continue reading I Carry Your Heart
My darling male basenji, Red, is just the sweetest darn boy alive. I know many strangers, including strangers with dogs, may not always agree with me. But of my two dogs, he is the genuinely lovable one. Last week, I took both the furballs to see the vet for their annual visit. Halo and Red … Continue reading Yank It Out
The luck o'the Irish will be upon us this weekend... and while I am sure you all would love it if I wrote about my debaucheries of skipping work and going to Tier Na Nog or Fado in Seattle at 9am, that whole drink-til-you-pass-out-thing doesn't quite jibe with this blog. So then I thought, well, … Continue reading The Color Green
I had a teacher in junior high. His name was Mr. Schultz. He seemed a lot older (I'm sure he was like 45 or something at the time). He was the boys' tennis coach, and my English teacher. I can honestly tell you, I can't remember a thing from his class. I think we read … Continue reading Practice Self-Control
I am not going to complain about Daylight Savings. I am not going to complain about Daylight Savings. Monday, I had a conference call for work. The conference call has always been at 930am. Always, for the past three months. Well, 930 Pacific Standard Time. The other ten people on this call are in Phoenix, … Continue reading How to Survive Daylight Savings
I was thinking about breakups recently. About the breakups I've had in my thirties versus the breakups I've had in my twenties. I think the one blaring difference? Maturity. My maturity. And my choices. I dated people in my twenties that I gave my life up to. That I put on a pedestal, who left … Continue reading A Grown Up Conversation
Last night I had the rare opportunity to tag along on a business dinner. It wasn't for my business... I was just a bystander. Don't get me wrong- I've entertained networking partners and clients, colleagues alike. But I'm usually the one in this mix. It's my career, part of my job. Last night? I had … Continue reading A Man’s World
