Everyone in DC feels like they’ve been hit repeatedly with a baseball bat. I don’t know what pollen is around here, but it’s got to be nearly as bad as anthrax.
I wake up every day feeling like I have a hangover, and I’ve not even had the pleasure of drinking the night before. My […]

Here is the updated NaPoWriMo list of poems. I missed April 15, but I was already 2 poems […]
I almost thought I’d not get my poem written for today. Technically, I did not since I wrote it at 1 a.m. The tot did not go to sleep until 10 p.m., and I had dishes to prepare for a tea I’m hosting for some Mama Friends. My house is very small, so I plan […]
