My 500th Blog Post
Almost seven years ago, on a random Sunday night, I posted a rambling blog post, which to this day has only been viewed eight times. I didn’t tell anyone I posted it, and I didn’t know what to expect from it. I wrote it because I could—because I couldn’t seem not to—and because I wanted Continue reading

Hands & Words & What They Can Do
The other day I was thinking about hands. So often we look down at our hands, sometimes nervously, sometimes mindlessly, sometimes in shock or amazement.

August 22, 2020 There are some vacations that sit you in front of your suitcase each morning, agonizing over what to wear, wondering how fashionable you should go, how formal, how casual, how comfortable, how functional, whether you should bring a jacket, or an umbrella, or an extra pair of shoes.
