about
I’m in my mid-thirties, happily married to John, and adore my dog Seamus. I’m extremely liberal, a vegetarian, and somewhat opinionated. We live in Maryland, north of Washington DC. I have a job that I love, but that I try not to talk about in detail – there was an incident, once, and I’d like to stay employed. While getting treated for infertility, I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes. Now I'm very focused on getting fit. I started blogging in part to keep in better touch with my far-flung friends, and had no idea how many new and interesting people I’d meet on the Internet. And now you’re one of them. So… hi!

Top Chef is back! My current favorite is the Hawaiian guy, Eugene. I liked Stephanie right from the start last season, so that could be a good omen for him. We'll see.

Money Can Buy Happiness (Sometimes)

I’m still sick. I’m totally overloaded at work and my day completely wore me out. I finally got home at 9:00 tonight, feeling beat down and depressed about any number of topics. But then I was greeted by my loving husband and delighted dancing, wagging little beagle. And I came inside to find that my birthday present from my brother had arrived. See?

And on top of that, the cute little purse I ordered for myself arrived too! Is this not the most perfect spring/summer purse ever?

I know it is silly, but coming home to my guys and getting a couple of books from my brother and a purse turned my day right around. I’m still tired…I’m still sick…but I feel better.
