So last night I had a dream. I was moving around, feeling pulled in different directions, being asked to participate in events and things that held no meaning for me. I was in this state of perpetual turmoil as I tried to find ways to twist myse...

Valentine's Day Stinks

2008-02-14T20:58:40Z

I've never really been into the whole hearts and flowers thing of Valentine's day. I'm not sure why, but receiving fluffy gifts like that makes me feel awkward and uneasy (maybe because I never feel the urge to get things like that for anyone else...

The Affair: I came, I saw, I took copious notes and left.

2008-02-13T02:28:05Z

As you know, I do try to be a beacon of wholesome goodness in the land of nonsense. But occasionally, I must snark, to get all the impurities out of my engine. And then there are times when I may combine the two. Never has a topic lured me into t...

I hope you dance.

2008-01-30T03:46:01Z

The other night, well past the hour respectable adults should be whispering about things like favorite childhood candies or first kisses, he asked me if I dance. I thought it was a weird jump but I played along as I try to make an effort to answe...

31 Flavors.

2008-01-10T15:31:27Z

Remember Forest Gump and his..."life is like a box of chocolates?" Nothing like blending theory with confection. Lawyer (the artist formerly known as my Crush) likes ice cream. No, actually...he adores ice cream. To the extent that if I was dang...

All the "love" news that's fit to print.

2008-01-03T01:46:25Z

Once upon a time, I used to write every little thing I felt...or at least what I thought I was supposed to be feeling. I wrote it in journals, I posted it in blogs and blabbed it up and down the street to whomever would listen. In the moment, it ...

Statistics Can Kiss My Ass

2007-09-27T20:41:47Z

Amidst the excitement and bliss I'm feeling as I wait for tomorrow afternoon to arrive so that I can sign the lease with my boyfriend and get the keys to our apartment, I can't help but feel a little bit of anxiety over cohabitation. So - I went ...

Those Fatal Three Words

2007-09-11T22:41:45Z

I've only said it in a romantic way to two people in my life before. But I can count at least four others off the top of my head that I've fallen in love with and never told them so. The first person I said it to was my ex-husband. We had been d...

Thoughts on Open Relationships

2007-09-07T22:45:27Z

I've spent the greater part of my Friday afternoon NOT working, but instead deeply engaged in reading the discussion on feministing.com about Open Marriage (and open relationships in general). It got me thinking about my recently-ended open relati...

at arm's length

2007-08-27T22:08:34Z

Recently I was hiking with a friend and she asked me who of my friends I was closest to during law school. After a seemingly unending pause, I told her no one. I have friends from law school, most of whom I have become close (to a degree) to aft...
