deep thoughtsfamily

alone

The kids are at Aunt Suz’s again. So I’m home alone today. Thus, I’m about to shut all the windows so I can dance around naked to my favorite LPs (you know, the dusty Duran Duran, Police, and Huey Lewis records that rarely see the light of day)…

In reality, I will probably polish off a scrumptious burrito from Taco Mesa and then lie around this afternoon in a post-burrito stupor as I contemplate the piles of books in the hallway that need a new shelf to call home.

PS: You know you’ve been married a long time when you have an evening sans kids and neither your nor your spouse can think of much to do other than hanging out at Barnes & Noble for the evening and reading books about traveling to China.

P.P.S: Yesterday we adopted out the rest of Aunt Suz’s foundling kitties. All night I was thinking of them and wondering if they were enjoying their new homes. Kittens are so magical! We had complete strangers lying on the floor of our LR baby-talking the little critters. So endearing. So sweet. So happy they have new people to love them as much as we have.

About Me

About Me

Hi there friend, and welcome to my blog. I started writing on the internet two decades ago. Since then I've started and finished a PhD program, left the Mormon church and became a Quaker, got divorced, remarried, found full-time work in academia, took up rock climbing and outrigger canoeing, and traveled across the globe (China! Belgium! Italy! Chicago! Montana! Portland! Gettysburg! and oh-so-many points in-between). This blog is eclectic and random--it has poetry and cooking and books. And cats. And flowers. And the ocean (my ocean). But in that sense it's a good reflection of me and my wide-ranging, far-reaching, magpie curiosity.
