Taking a bow

May 18, 2009

Don’t think of this as good-bye. Well, okay, maybe a little.

April 23, 2009

I’m back from my trip to Phoenix, actually got back on Sunday night — and almost immediately got hit with the reality of being back to work, kids, more wedding planning (although it’s almost all squared away now), my ImperfectParent essay (due like, now, and still not finished) and back in the Eastern time zone. Wow, [...]
