Women
Flashed
Yesterday, I swung by a girly store to look for some negligee for a friend who is getting married. As I browsed the skivvies, a woman came up to me and pointed to a particular bra. “This one looks SO GOOD on,” she declared. “Excellent!” I replied. And… awkward? I thought. Because who likes to…
Navigating
It’s feeling more and more difficult to use this space to express anything of substance. I used to pour my heart out onto this blog, exposed for all the world to see, my inner-most sentiments laid bare for any passerby to interpret however they wished. But in the three years that I’ve kept this site,…
To tell stories
Kathryn Bigelow is 58-years old? I seriously thought she was 32. What a beautiful woman. Watching the Oscars makes me want to be in show business. I just want to tell stories for the rest of my life. I guess that this blog will have to do.

Never 21
On Saturday, I had an idea: “I should go to Forever 21!” This always sounds like a good idea – cheap clothes, cute ruffles, trends that will go out of style tomorrow but you must have them today, etc. However, upon my arrival at the front doors, I was reminded of the cold, hard truth…
In response
Hearken back to Monday’s post. What was meant to be a shoulder shrug, a lark, a lighthearted jab at my pal Andy, actually sparked quite the response. While I got a lot of “You go, girl!” comments from women, I have been much more impacted by what I have heard from the men – whether…
