Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I don't know much about adult beverages--what are good mixers to have on hand for tequila? I'm planning the DH's 50th, which will be featuring a taco cart.

Margarita mix, if you don't want to make a Whole Thing out of it.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Grapefruit juice is amazingly tasty. If that's too tart, add some St. Germain elderflower liqueur.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

little things people, celebrate the little things.

I try to do this every day. Today's celebration? Glittery new manicure!

I am filled with feelings about Maurice Sendak's death. On the one hand, touched my life, hell he's even touched my kids' lives. On the other, he lived a long long life.

I need to go to the gym. But first I need to finish watching Chris Evans playing beer pong with Jimmy Fallon.

And we'll always have Rosie, and Max, and the rest.

Because books.

Maybe I'll listen to Really Rosie tonight.

There's nothing like seeing your affiliation in a list of conference attendees stated as "Independent Scholar" (academic codewords for "Unemployed") to make you feel like a loser. Ugh.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Linky, please?

When I went to a conference and was unemployed, I told people I was a free agent and they should snap me up. It got a laugh, if not a job.
