reflecting on various topics
Last night, I opened the door, as one might, to bring something inside that was outside. And my cat Atticus, as cats…. sometimes do decided that the moment had come for his great escape. He snuck out lithely and sheepishly, as if he might only go for a short few feet, and I finished bringing …
(disclaimer that I actually am deeply obsessed with this album and adore it and it was formational for me, and I listen to certain songs from it all the time. this song just made me think) I was listening to “This is Your Life” on The Beautiful Letdown and thinking about how Switchfoot was singing …
I did take a few pics that I wanted to share. I got out to Sweet Springs nature preserve, the other day. It was beautiful. Yesterday I baked some bread and had a little tea party with the kids. We aren’t remotely British and I’m sure I’m “doing it wrong,” but we had so much …

Battleship was such a classic. “You hit Flipper!” “You couldn’t hit the broadside of a barn.” Never been trash-talked that well by a computer with …
Today was basically figuring out a vet appt for Atticus, some dishes and laundry, and then movie night with turkey sandwiches/ leftover spaghetti and popcorn. We watched The Aristocats. You know what? That is such a fun movie. I love that movie! It always weirded me out a tiny bit as a kid, in parts, …
(image: looking at thedailymeal.com website) This is a memory post. I want to write about the memory of Taco Bell. Seven layer burrito (“supreme” made it get sour cream), extra guacamole, with mild salsa. Orange soda. My go-to order for years. (UNTIL THEY TOOK IT OFF MENU BUT I THINK IT’S STILL ON THE MENU …
