I miss me when I'm not here. For the past few days I've been checking in, hoping against hope that someone might have hacked in and ghost-written me a post. Something witty and heartfelt, maybe. Or uplifting and inspiring. Even something wicked and bitchy. But no. Every time I check, it's the same: "Yosemite Boots." … Continue reading Disclaimer: No Inspiration Here.

Yosemite Boots
My boots came in the mail yesterday. The boots I hiked Yosemite in. After we left the park, we found a post office and stopped and mailed a box home to ourselves hoping to lighten our suitcases and avoid paying the $50 extra for an overweight bag. (It worked, too.)

Solstice Bike Ride 2010
I don't know what it is, but every single time we go on an adventure, G winds up "saving the day" in some way.

My Vacation
I am buried in laundry. My house looked AMAZING when I walked in, exhausted, after a week away. (yay me for cleaning!!) My trip to Yosemite was... (adjectives fail me) Spectacular? Yeah, that's getting warm, but it was more than that. Here's what I DIDN'T do: I didn't pick up my pen once the whole … Continue reading My Vacation
JFK
Well I discovered last night at the Apple store in Rochester that there is no gizmo that will let me upload pics directly into my Ipod Touch. Oh but let me just tell you about the Apple Store on a Saturday night! The fondling of the Ipads? Obscene! Everyone including little ones in strollers were … Continue reading JFK
