You know how sometimes you just get tired of everything in life and want to be a bit melodramatic and unhappy? That’s how I’m feeling today. This week, actually. I think it’s probably because of the epic Easter journey, a week of busy-ness at work, and me refusing to allow myself enough sleep. Often, I’ll [...]

warmth & personality

Just sitting here admiring the sturdiness of my 1930s-era tiny house against the blustery January winds. Thinking about the warmth of summer, remembering that in fact I don’t really like summer but waxing nostalgic nonetheless. Remembering May’s lilacs, October’s crispy days and the oven-air of August.

I was reading Booker T. Washington’s Up From Slavery on the Metro today (thank you, LI internship book money!).

I love pageantry in a church service. And before you jump all over that with comments about “relationship” and “coldness” and [...]

It seems like Mondays are always bad weather days, doesn’t it? I mean, rarely do you get just an absolutely gorgeous Monday. This summer, Monday was my only day off in a very long week of camp. Although the summer as a rule was beautiful and hot (which is great camp weather, although it definitely [...]
