Ian Takes Flight
Like a lot of little kids, Ian is a huge fan of airplanes. He's loved our visits to the Air & Space Museum and the New England Air Museum, is always flying his toys around and/or pretending to be an...
Thankful
I think that Thanksgiving weekend is my favorite time of the year. It's always just so...cozy. My favorite people, my favorite foods, a nice long weekend, a few days of fun and relaxation...what's not to love? This year, for the...

Despite the fact that my life hasn't revolved around a school schedule in years, the turn of the calendar from August into September still feels like a new year to me in a way that the actual new year in...

Balance
I started my new job back in January, and it feels like life has been a big blur since then. Life changes are often a mix of good and bad things, and this move was no different. The job itself...

Mail and booze
I am the queen of stress dreams...which is interesting, since I am not someone who generally lets stress get to me. Once upon a time, I had the classic at-school-wearing-only-underwear dreams, but in recent years, they've changed. The setting is...

In which an entire month just disappears before our very eyes
December really got away from me this year. For the last few months, I've been involved with a committee for our library consortium -- we've been researching a potential new vendor for our integrated library system software. December was crunch-time...
Falling
I love when I wake up and it's fall! I firmly believe that if I were prone to seasonal depression, I'd get it in the summer. Yes, there are things that even I, hater of hot weather, like about summer,...
Long ago
Wow - not only was I not able to embed pictures in my last post, it even stripped my formatting! (Not that I had much formatting. But really - it had to delete my paragraph breaks? Sheesh.)
Anyway, because I'm SURE you've been waiting with bated breath....here are the pictures I promised you. First up, senior prom 1995, very soon after we started dating.
I have to tell you, I LOVED that dress. It made me feel like a movie star. I would totally still wear it today, but I assure you there is no way that I will ever again fit into a size 4 column dress. Oh, to be seventeen again.
And a bonus picture, from around the same time. I can't remember when, exactly, this one was taken. I feel like it was over Thanksgiving in 1995, based on my haircut and the fact that we're wearing long sleeves, but I'm really not sure.
Aging is such a weird process. I don't feel any older than I did then, but boy, am I. We were such babies!
