about Kate

If I were to try
to write a poem 
about Kate, it 

would contain 
the line, "I 
am a person 
with a habit 

of naming 
my inanimate 
objects."

the dilemma

Why is it
that the co-workers
I like most always
leave me? 
                 I suppose
the solution to this
problem is to stop
liking the bright,
competent, ambitious
ones, but
                I don't think
that's really possible
or even
a good idea.

Today's method of overdoing it prevention

Today, the method of preventing overdoing things is wearing a dress.  It is a birthday party themed event, and there will be games, and my kid will want to play them, and I know that I will want to play them, too, so I will wear a (very informal) long dress, so there is no way I can give in to the temptation to do something silly that will cause me pain for days.  Dresses are so very useful.
