How to Know When it is Officially “Winter Cold” Out
1 – It’s time to get out of the shower, but instead of drying off you just stand there with the towel wrapped around you wishing you’d never gotten in in the first place. 2 – You wake up having to pee in the middle of the night and really consider just peeing the bed….

The women in my family have really been through it. I have seen them thrive and suffer, survive and succumb. I have seen them sacrifice. The older I’ve become, the more I have learned about the tough choices the women in my family have made. I come from a long line of incredibly strong women. This…
Another Incendiary Headline
Yet again from the American media. CNN, in fact. Let’s just face the sad truth. There are no reputable news sources anymore. Anyway, whatever your opinion on what Lincoln University is doing, I hope we all can agree that the headline “College’s too-fat-to-graduate rule under fire” is inflammatory and misleading. Also, what’s with CNN’s titles…
Anderson Cooper & Why Gay People Declare Their Sexuality
I was reading an article about Anderson Cooper coming out (which he did with great dignity, might I add) on CNN. And no matter how frequently I tell myself to stop at the last sentence of the article, my eyes once again meandered into the dangerous territory of the comment section. By and large, they…
A Healthy Dose of Humility
On Thursday, the company where I’m working had their big Christmas luncheon. I skipped it for some priceless alone time with a working computer and silence. Ah, what I can accomplish in forty minutes without distraction. Then- They came back. My current co-workers started flooding in and my time came to an end. Immediately, one…

I guess as long as you can live with the side effects, moping as a weight loss strategy? :o)
I’m so sorry to hear you’ve been moping. I know it doesn’t help, but I miss you tremendously and you are loved.
And by the way – unlike most people you don’t have to “attempt greatness.” You just simply are.
I think everyone mopes and self-doubts once and a while. If it doesn’t last too long I think it’s ok. I know I’m good at what I do. 97.68% of the time I’m great at my job. But then, there’s that 2.32% when I think I suck that I’m an idiot and I have no idea what I’m doing. Then I start thinking about what I can do not to suck. That’s when I realize that I’m already doing it so I come to the conclusion that I don’t actually suck.
I know you know you don’t suck and you got more greatness in you. But just in case here’s a little reminder:
– House Arrest parts 1 through 35
– Inamorata parts 1 through 36
– Temporary Girlfriend 1-20
– Conversations About a Redhead
– Between the Shadow and the Soul
– Extreme Sensitivity
And, of course “Bleeding through Kingdoms†which my 89-year-old grandmother is now reading and apparently enjoying a lot. She has to read with a magnifying glass so if she hasn’t given up yet it’s a very good sign.
You’re allowed a short period of moping but then you have to snap out of it. There are people depending on you and your everlasting greatness. :). And for all of you Joe six-packs out there doing a drinking game, ‘suck’.
Now if you’ll excuse me I have to go talk to a fictional San Francisco inspector. You think you’re the only crazy around here?
Love It! Miss you guys – xoxox
