Oh, The Beauty of The American Landscape

On the phone with The Boss, who left Arizona this morning, and is just a little more than three hours from Los Angeles: The Boss: I feel like I’ve learned a lot about truckers these past few days. Me: What do you mean? The Boss: You know, I feel like I know them. Me: How? [...]

Wear This When You Can

Yesterday was the first truly warm, spring-like day we’ve had, and it was the first day I wore a pair of sandals without fearing that the temperature would drop 22 degrees before I reached the mailbox. I don’t wear nail polish often, but when I do, it’s usually only on my toes. So when I [...]

H’WHERE’S My Ritalin?

The Boss and I spent the weekend in New England with the in-laws, and even though they’re not far, we did the six-hour drive twice in less than three days. Since I’m border-line ADD (no seriously, if it weren’t for my pediatricians who told my parents not to mess with meds when I was 3 [...]
