This little blog of mine is so terribly behind that I'm not sure I will ever be able to catch up. I have even received complaints! So, for lack of a better formulated topic, here is a list of items that I purchased at the Binkley Baptist Church bi-annual yard sale this past Saturday: sausage biscuitbox with text indicating its purpose for holding rubber bands and paper clipsgold picture framemail

This past weekend I got to spend some time with the wonderful women of the Wanderlust tour, who are biking from New Orleans to NYC to talk with people in different communities about reproductive justice and promoting social change. These women were so smart and outspoken and just all around interesting and amazing people. They were from all different professions and places and backgrounds, and

This is the stuff that makes gay marriage worth fighting for. And at Dollywood, no less.

Since I have been worst "blogger" ever, I decided to throw up a photo post so that it will become clear that I have not died. My mother often worries that I have died if she has not heard from me in a few weeks. Mom, do you read this blog? If so, my apologies for the gratuitous corned beef photo that follows. Anyway, here is what I have been doing with my life: eating delicious sandwiches (thank

This weekend was a sad one for North Carolina, as we watched UNC lose to Kansas 84-66 last night. Admittedly, it wasn't our best game (where was the defense??!?), but we managed to come back from a thirty-point lead to make it a four-point game for a little while, which I think is pretty admirable. I am going to miss watching the games; it was always exciting to be in a room full of grown-ass

I have been procrastinating for a long time on this blog entry because I was just introduced to postcardsfromyomomma.com, which had me entranced for the better part of an hour. The site owners ask people to contribute emails and other (typically online) correspondence from their mothers, and then post them to a tumblr blog. Highlights include pretty much all of the instant messenger conversations

Well. I have been concerned about writing a post that details my spring break roadtrip to the Midwest without being excessively long. The trip ended up taking some unexpected turns, but was totally worth it. A brief timeline of events: 13 hour drive from NC to Chicago (or so we thought) - my little car braved the "worst storm in history" (according to an Ohio weather website) and only spun off

Last night while watching two (in a row!) of those terrifying shows on the Discovery Channel about quintuplets and sextuplets, I was reminded of my fascination with the Dionne quintuplets. Born in 1934, the Dionne quints were some of the first quintuplets to survive infancy. I first learned about them in one of my favorite books of all time, the 1940 volume Multiple Human Births by Horatio

I have tried a few times before now to initiate some sort of record of my life, and I have always failed. I have never been good at keeping up with journals or writing down important events in my expensive day planner that I rarely use. Sometimes I take pictures of things, but they usually end up on the floor behind my desk. So, after hearing from several people that they would read what I had to
