GIVE ME AIR

By Julie | Published: July 3, 2012
And now I will admit to you my latest addiction. The thing of which I simply cannot get enough these days. Some may simply call it air. But that word can mean so many different things. I’m not talking about the still, stuffy, suffocating kind that is currently filling the loft here at R-house and [...]

COOL

By Julie | Published: June 20, 2012
The heat index is rising up here in the loft office. Which I much, much prefer to the winter alternative, when I’m forced to wear fingerless gloves and scarves and hats and four layers of sweaters for months on end. Except that… I’ve got this somewhat-confused heat-handling system in this crazy self of mine and, [...]

TWEETING AWAY

By Julie | Published: February 9, 2012
Yesterday R-girl interrupted my writing trance with a sudden: “SHHHHHH! …….I hear birds….” I had to disappoint her by revealing that she was actually hearing the online “relaxation station” I was playing on my computer, which features a subtle nature track behind the music. Including birds that sound exactly like summer. Perhaps it will make her feel [...]

SCENES FROM THE SCREEN PORCH

By Julie | Published: September 29, 2011
This unseasonably warm and wonderful weather can mean only one thing: Get thyself onto the screen porch. That means you. Come join me! I’ve even lit the candles for us. Where would you like to sink in? The chairs? The glider? Oh that old thing? No, really. It is an old thing. In fact, that vintage metal porch [...]

THIS IS NOT SPAM

By Julie | Published: September 4, 2011
This is not spam. This is just a regular ordinary blog post about ketchup and mustard chapstick. And sculptures made of butter. (You can butter-fy yourself here. It’s you. Only butter.) And jungle dancers. And giant pumpkins. And it would have also been about sweet, baby pigs but we didn’t get to see those this [...]

PLANES, TRAINS, AND AUTOMOBILES: PART TWO

By Julie | Published: August 26, 2011
If there’s one thing I learned on the big *Wild West Summer Trip* it’s that, despite the fairly consistent presence of Coca-Cola and Little League wherever we live in America, and even though we might all be laughing at the same Wednesday night sitcoms, the reality is: We are all so different. Beautifully, strikingly, defiantly different. [...]

PLANES, TRAINS, AND AUTOMOBILES: PART ONE

By Julie | Published: August 25, 2011
Ever look back and realize just how far you’ve come? I’ve done quite a bit of that lately. Especially since R-kids and I returned from our big *Wild West Summer Trip*. Boy, did we cover a lot of ground. A lot. As in, five plane rides… …four airports (yep, that’s R-girl’s carry-on)… …at least a [...]
