Not a day goes by I don't contemplate profound life questions of life such as are you there God, it's me Margaret and who shot JR?' When I want a distraction from pondering questions about the human condition, I wonder "how the hell did I lived without my iPhone?" Frankly, I really should know because I … Continue reading 5 Things People Did Before Apple (BA)

Another Lame Post
Starting a blog was a way for me to challenge myself as a writer and find some cool blogs to follow. To really get going in the blogging world, I thought joining NaBloWriMo would get the old, write-y juices flowing every day. I envisioned myself pumping out words like Steinbeck--a co-worker, who writes sweeping, epic emails. … Continue reading Another Lame Post
Smokes and Progressive Rock
I purchased my first pack of cigarettes from a store down the street from my home (when you could still sell cigs to teenager).

Once Upon an Excuse
Again, I’ve committed to do something that I’m dreading. No, it’s not NaBloPoMo. I said yes months ago to attend a career conference for young women (petulant teenage girls) and talk about my “career” (job that dumps 26 pay cheques into my bank account a year). It’s tonight and I’m in full excuse mode. Car … Continue reading Once Upon an Excuse
