read the note
[Wrote this back in 2009 and went looking for it tonight because … well, just because.] Read the Note. If you’re thinking of taking out a loan from a bank and you would let me give you one word of advice, it would be just that: Read the Note. Okay, it’s actually three words. I… Read.

sticky icky gummy boogers
Sticky icky gummy boogers is what I got. After the long, cold winter of ice and snow we just came out of, this just doesn’t seem fair. (I am so gratified to find out that my tablet’s autocorrect knows how to spell “boogers.” Faith in technology restored.) Last night we both laid awake for seven… Read.
