I have a long flight on Thursday & I'm in need of music/book recommendations!

Mon, 13 May 2013 19:39:28 -0400

I’m in need of new music! I typically listen to folky/rootsy/acoustic stuff but I’m open to anything really.

I want a book to read as well and need some ideas… I’m not picky - nonfiction, fiction, poetry, memoirs, essays etc etc

So what do you recommend?

If it was anyone else I’d be like wow that’s really conceited but seriously if I was Darren Criss I’d talk about myself all the time.

My Marathon Monday Experience

Thu, 18 Apr 2013 14:24:00 -0400

Note: The majority of this post is what I wrote in my journal on the night of April 15, 2013 after the Boston Marathon explosions. Some details were added and edited for clarity.

It’s 3:15 pm. I’m on the green line heading inbound to Boston to meet up with someone at a coffee shop off of Mass Ave. At the Longwood T stop we pass an outbound train heading in the opposite direction. I look at the people on the opposite train: Quite a few of them are talking on their cellphones. I find this to be strange since most people, like myself, are typically plugged in and tuned out on train rides. A lot of the faces look tired and uncomfortable. They must have run the marathon, I think.

Moments later I get a text from my friend Solange: “There were two bombs that went off at the finish.”

What? What’s going on? What do you mean? I know what it means, but how could it mean that? Is this serious? The concerned faces of the outbound T make sense now.

The train pulls up to a halt at the Fenway stop, and all the doors open. “Last stop!” says the MBTA official, “Everybody off.” It is serious. This is real.

I stumble off the T and aimlessly wander for a few minutes. I hear the roar of helicopters flying over me. “No inbound T service,” they keep saying. A few more minutes of confusion go by and the workers proclaim, “No inbound OR outbound T service. Walk to your destination.”

I had a dream last night about a guy I haven’t seen in YEARS, and then today I randomly bumped into him while walking my dog.

It was really freaky…

Rightside Shirts is a Boston-based nonprofit that prints t-shirts designed by elementary and middle school students, with 100% of profits donated to the designers’ school to fund youth art education.

I think this is so important, and literally one of the greatest ideas I’ve ever heard. If you agree, you should share/reblog and BUY A TSHIRT.

Supporting youth art education is fashionable.

This is about my some day daughter already stained with insecurity, asking me “Mom, will I be pretty”. And I’ll wipe that question from her mouth like cheap lipstick and say:
