Year-end musings
It seems like December 31 is the year’s most contemplative day, don’t you think? The bug hits me, I’ll admit. I’ve spent the past few days thinking about the year, the pace of which felt a little like this. Even as the light dims this late afternoon (snow is falling!), I’m still hoping to have […]
Technical difficulties
Apparently ’tis not the season for WordPress and PHP and my theme to fa la la la la together, so things are looking a little wonky around here. Ba humbug. Better than the site being totally down, which it was for who knows how long as I was wrapping up finals…but not that much better. […]
Game planning (Thanksgiving edition)
This morning, my Facebook feed blew up with talk of “the big game,” the annual Montana-Montana State football game (which is, somewhat foolishly to my way of thinking, called “The Brawl of the Wild”). While alums of both schools taunted one another, I was doing my own kind of game planning: the kind that involves […]

play – The August Break – day eleven
An afternoon in the water. Finally. Play. Day Eleven of The August Break. (photo by me, wrapped in a beach towel)
red – The August Break – day ten
Signs of summer. Red. Day Ten of The August Break. (photos by me, at the Huckleberry Festival and later on the dock with a vodka tonic in hand)
taste – The August Break – day nine
One missed silk. Oops. Taste. Day Nine of The August Break. (photo by me, on the deck before dinner was served)
I like writing, photography, reading, music, design, typography, paper products, days in the seventies and sparkly snow, Spanish wine and cans of PBR. I spent a year in Córdoba, Spain, working as a
