NJM13: Of Appointments and Broken Dates in These Foolish Things
At the office this morning catching up on work emails and trying to clean out my gmail. I had something like 100K messages in there, most of them promotions of some kind. I’m trying to do a mas...
NJM12: Tiny Brain Explosions in These Foolish Things

NJM11: Of Dreams and Vortices in These Foolish Things
I had the most amazing dream last night: I was pregnant and about to give birth, so I was at the hospital and they were prepping me for a natural birth when I suddenly realized that I couldn’t h...
NJM10: Life is Short - Buy the Coat in These Foolish Things
Note: this really is NJM10. I don’t know why it didn’t publish last night when I hit the “publish” button??? I went to the off-price luxury fashion store looking for cowboy boots as the ones I ...
NJM9: I Got Nothing in These Foolish Things
I had a lovely day but I really don’t have anything to say today. So I’m just going to not say anything. Sorry. I still love you, GS
NJM8: As the Petechiae Fades in These Foolish Things
Happy Friday! I’m in a much better mood today than I have been the last few days even though I really do think that the Mercury Retrograde has something to do with why everyone’s so weird lately...
NJM7: Mercury Retrograde in These Foolish Things
Some noters suggested that all of yesterday’s annoyances are most likely the result of Mercury being in Retrograde, and I have to agree! It’s just too weird that so many SNAFUs are happening tha...

I started to write details about this new-ish person at work and how it seems like she’s doing a whole bunch of shit just to piss me off (the details of which are not important) and she finally...
NJM5: The Update in These Foolish Things
Quickly: Doc Jeff (my PCP) called me first thing this morning to tell me that all my blood tests came in NORMAL (yay!) so the question still remained - WTF has been going wrong with my body sinc...
NJM4: Status in These Foolish Things
Ok, so the status is WAIT. PCP called to tell me to keep it status quo (as opposed to quid pro quo) - as in, don’t take my blood thinning meds (Plavix & Aspirin) until further notice. He sai...
NJM3: Nervous in These Foolish Things
I almost forgot to write an entry today. Time changed and it’s only 7:20pm and I’m exhausted so I’m already in bed. But I’m nervous because I think I’m having a reaction to my new blood thinners....
NoJoMo 1 & 2: Work Baloney & Vacation Bullets in These Foolish Things
Ugh! I’ve already blown it by missing Day 1, but I’m going to try to get an entry in a day and won’t beat myself up for it if I don’t. It’s just fun when I’m able to take a quick break every da...
Moved. in These Foolish Things
This morning I got up early to watch the sun rise over the Grand Canyon in 20-degree temps (it even snowed last night!). It moved me to tears. I cried because clearly there is an entity in this ...
It's My Birthday, Bitches! in These Foolish Things
Greetings from a Starbucks somewhere in Las Vegas! I’m kind of mad because these dumb Starbucks in the casinos will take your money but they won’t let you redeem your rewards and any Starbucks f...
Ready to Go! in These Foolish Things
Welp. I hope I’ve packed all the right stuff for all of the crazy climates we’re supposed to have in the coming few days. Tomorrow morning, bright and early, it’s off to Vegas, the Grand Canyon ...
Packing in These Foolish Things
Well. I’ve been packing and doing laundry trying to figure out what to wear in pretty much three different climates this weekend and next week! The weather is going to be all over the place from...

Greetings from the lounge bar at Raleigh Durham Airport! I’m here for a couple of hours while the same storms that hit on Sunday in [my city] blow through here and then I’ll take off for home. ...
Walk Walk Walk in These Foolish Things
Hi Y’all! I’m in North Carolina at the furniture show and I’m tucked in my hotel room bed about to fall asleep immediately! I want to write but I am exhausted. It’s been a cool day and I hung wi...
Tucked in Bed... in These Foolish Things
Gotta get up by 4am to prep for my 6:45am flight to the furniture show tomorrow. Packing for this meant that I’m partially packed for the Grand Canyon Birthday Adventure on Friday. Now all I go...
Dog Days in These Foolish Things
After getting my hair cut into my razor sharp bob collarbone length, I went to an event for work today and it was fun but very, very long and I can’t believe we had to stay there so long - but we...
Friday Morning, Quickly in These Foolish Things
I don’t feel like breaking the writing streak for October and I know I’m going to be busy for the rest of the day into evening and tonight, so I’ll just tap out a quickie now before my meetings b...
Too Tired in These Foolish Things
I’m too tired to write much of anything. It’s been the day of vaccines. First thing this morning, I took Martini to get her Lepto and Bordatella vaccines updated. Of course, the Lepto knocks ...
Past My Bedtime in These Foolish Things
…and not really for fun reasons at that! It’s been a busy, busy, BUSY day! In fact, I think today’s been the busiest since my injury and I’m still feeling pretty darn good. That’s quite excitin...
New iPhone Who Dis? in These Foolish Things
Okay, I looooovvvveee my new phone, but it does take a little getting used to. I don’t yet know how to operate the new camera functions. Three lenses in the back? Why? I know it’s for cool fu...
Was it a Holiday or Not? in These Foolish Things
So…did we celebrate Columbus Day or not? I don’t think I’ve ever “celebrated” it. I’ve always had to work on this holiday and I don’t even remember having the day off as a kid in school. But t...
