The 7 trains runs above ground. The boxes in the basement hold my goodbyes, mostly. Let go. I repeat it accidentally or automatically. "Do you want to stop at Starbucks for the ride in?" &q...
We rolled into town as the sun was setting. Found ourselves a hotel for the first night with little trouble, despite the two weddings in town for the weekend. Actually, we found the hotel with more e...
We left DC not entirely sure we would end up in Knoxville. We set off on a road trip, towards Knoxville but decided not to book a hotel room prior to our arrival because, well, who knows where we mig...
How we met. A decade ago, more. I counted myself lucky, even then. The towers fell. We start our stories there. One, three of us braided together, beginning. One beginning on a Tuesday morning, green...
Cousins, the friendship. {nicole. alivia. the end}
Brooklyn, the bridge.
The days when the math is off and the deadline is blown and the work clothes are still on at 10 pm and the email response is less-than supportive and the mojitos are two blocks too far away and lil M...
East Village, the neighborhood. Street art, the medium of expression. (and one of my favorite things to photograph)
East Village, the neighborhood.
We went to see each other, not so much to see the city. Our plan entailed not much more than spending the night at my brothers, heading to East Village, and spending a couple days with each other. Dr...
Most of my "life plans" contain a fair amount of "shit, how am I going to do this?" Usually this ingredient derives from a lack of time or a lack of money. And it can usually be b...
I remember when I was in fourth grade and I quit playing the clarinet. I only played for six weeks, but six weeks was long enough to know the clarinet and I were not meant to be. Six weeks was long e...

The hundred times Ive written this post in my head, it has been very, very, very long. I framed the news Im about to share as a series of endings and beginnings, which take much explanation. Which it...
Nicole, Alivia, and I spent the weekend in NYC. It was wonderful. Actually, wonderful doesnt cover how wonderful it was. But Im not going to grasp for the right words, because that nap never happened...
And so much to share. But first, a nap. So, I leave you with this for now.
I consistently read the word re-incarceration as reincarnation. This is probably due to the fact that I have spent far more of my time learning about Hinduism than adult criminal justice.In the juven...
"I cannot wait until 30." If youve been in earshot of me within the past 5 years, youve probably heard me utter that exact statement. It usually has an inflection on the word "wait&quo...
The great thing about collecting links each week and then not making the time to post them here? I get to re-read all the articles and posts I loved from the past few weeks as though its the first ti...
There is a calm tonight. After a slow pace to this weekend. Warm sun, cool breeze. Tonight, an open window and stars in the sky. These are the days I thought Id never find again. Things-to-do set asi...
I had a blog the year I lived in Vermont. It was an I’m-fresh-out-of-college-and-I -don’t-know-what-the-hell-I-am -doing-living-in-rural-Vermont -but-I-think-I-love-it-althoug h-I-couldn’t-tell-you-why b...
Not so long ago, I decided not to live in this area of the city. I havent regret that decision for even a moment. Where I live now is so right for me that I have a hard time putting it into words. Mo...
Run by Snow Patrol on GroovesharkThe next time my heart breaks, I would like it to happen all at once. A complete shattering. A plate sliding from the hutch top-shelf with a crash that shakes even th...
Most people who know me, would tell you that I eat more sugar than anyone they know. And that would be a pretty accurate statement. It would probably be followed up by a declaration that I dont need ...
Ive been thinking a lot about Ireland lately. About the trip I took there two years ago. It might have to do with having a friend who loves, loves, loves St. Patricks Day and all things Irish. I now ...
The lovely Angie and my love Nicole both tagged me in their 11 Questions posts, and I have a handful of questions from formspring, so I thought today would be a great day to answer questions. Im just...
...when the weather was gorgeous.
Tuesday morning, I waited in line outside of the US Supreme Court for almost eight hours. I arrived at 4:30 am and sat down on the sidewalk curb next to a co-worker. The Supreme Court has perfectly t...
