I’m working until midnight tonight. Then back behind my desk at my day job at 8:30 am. I like my jobs, but right now I’d really rather be home, cleaning and sorting. I brought home a full set of almost 40-year-old dishes to use at home, which are old and attractive enough that …
I have to get up early for work, and my body still doesn’t quite understand this. “I thought we were still in grad school!” it whimpers, shivering. “Can’t we go back for five more minutes?”

I have sort of a crush on John Oliver.
Is it the dimples, the glasses, the accent, or the slow-motion fake bowling?
Definitely the slow-motion bowling.
I forgot to bring my water bottle in to work today. I usually drink at least a liter of water, and I leave it half-full in the freezer overnight so I can have ice water all day. I get very grouchy if I can’t sit and sip my water all day at work, especially as …
Brzostek’s has a Web site! They were originally based in my hometown of Baldwinsville, and when I was a little kid we used to go to their antique auctions to look for glassware deals. I didn’t think that they did auctions this far east.
