Not even a week. I had something nice and upbeat to start the weekend, but about an hour before I got here I heard about Nice. And the timeline seems to be less than thrilled with the latest Town Hall (but I expected that). So Soapbox Sunday will be on in a couple days. […]
So if this week, we’re trying to squeeze in some pure, escapist pop fun… Don’t act surprised. Enjoy!

It’s one (admirable) thing to commit to breaking your bad habits; it’s another thing altogether to really wrap your head around how much work you have in front of you. So, the Buddhist influence […]
Relieved. Way back when, I was an intensely serious child. Most everyone admired me for it, in different ways. I was intelligent. I was curious. I was ‘angry’, in the sense I was fascinated by all the whys and hows of what brought all of us to where we are. I was an avid student […]
