Please tell me Byran Brown is not running for Mayor again. Please tell me that Buffaloians cannot be so foolish as to reelect him...please...*much gnashing of teeth* 0 . . .
It is December 27th and already I cannot take any more 2008 ‘retrospectives’. I have a difficult enough time with the here and now. I don’t think one should look back until there has been quit0 . . .
I haven’t posted in a year. That pretty much tells you how the last year has gone. What’s interesting is that the post regarding holiday-shopping-procrastinating which I wrote last year appli0 . . .
When it comes to Christmas, there are two kinds of people - people who shop ahead of time and people who do not. I am the latter. Of the people who do not shop ahead of time, there are two kind0 . . .
I have been remiss in posting updates to my less than eventful life. Not sure anyone noticed. December is a whirlwind for me just as it is for others. I am involved in a four-part acapella carol0 . . .
This blog is fast becoming about my mother. Today its about the fact that I could never throw the huge parties I do or provide the holiday feasts that I do without her. Nor my sister. In my fa0 . . .
It's gotten to that point. Since I moved back to Buffalo from NYC, I have gained 20 - count 'em - 20 pounds. Let me be clear, it is not Buffalo's fault, it is completely mine. Oh, an0 . . .

I love the bumper sticker that says "If you are not appalled, you are not paying attention". I sometimes feel like there are very few people paying attention. But paying attention takes a l0 . . .
Mean people really do suck. We need a penalty box where you have to spend time every time you are mean. You should be forced to discuss why you were mean and then forced to apologize. You would hav0 . . .
It should not be convenient or easy to drive home if you live in the suburbs. You should have to sit in your car for long periods to make up for all the pollution you are selfishly creating coming ba0 . . .
