I just made a three-bean salad for dinner. It’s marinating in the fridge right now. Contains chickpeas, white beans, black beans, red onion, red bell pepper, red wine vinegar, olive oil, and basil. I’m going to throw some feta cheese in there when it’s ready. Making brown rice too. After I put it together, I […]

Yay for sparkly pinky coral nail polish. I didn’t make a to-do list for this weekend… though I know there will be a long dog walk at some point today. I got up just after seven and made apple cinnamon oatmeal on the stovetop, one of my favorite breakfasts. It’s so simple. There will never […]

I had a dream last night that I was in a basement and looking across the dimness at several gigantic, kitten-sized spiders sitting in their webs. I am not as scared of spiders as I used to be, but in my dreams they always tend to be monstrous. These ones were yellow, and fast. Of […]

At six o’clock this morning, I peed on a stick. I smiled as I watched the twin pink bands light up as fiercely as the magenta sunset that I would later watch on my way home from work. I climbed back into bed with Brian. Looked at his scruffy cheek and woke him up. Made […]

Knowing that at some point in the next eight hours I will be kicked in the stomach but I don’t know when it will happen exactly, just that it WILL happen so all day I must brace myself for it and be totally ready to take it and then recover as quickly as I can […]

Running out the door in five minutes to Kona’s first agility class, I’m typing this in fingerless gloves. If we take the back road to the class, she might start whining; she knows where we’re going.
