The morning after

I thought I’d cry, but I am numb. Scared to my bones. I went to sleep close to 3:00 local (4:00 am Eastern), with a list of results to check in the morning. Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Minnesota. Maybe she could still pull it off. Right before I turned off the TV, I saw that she […]

November 9th

Sweet ones: It is 2:30 on the East Coast, and this presidential race seems all but called for the candidate I never seriously imagined might win. For millions of people like me who believe he is unqualified, xenophobic and has the potential to lead our country off a cliff, this is a terrifying and terrible […]

#notokay

I was twelve years old the first time I got groped. If you’re a regular reader, you’ve read this story before, because I’ve written about it at least twice. I was walking home from grammar school in my Catholic schoolgirl uniform – I still remember the exact spot – when a guy just walked up […]

Full stop. Seriously people. Please.

I don’t think if you’re on here I really need to explain this to you, because you probably wouldn’t be on the website of the author of a book about an undocumented immigrant if you didn’t have at least a smidge of compassion. But Trump. Ugh. First, to my readers with girl parts: no one […]

Tsundoku

There’s a word for it! Tsundoku is the Japanese word for buying books you don’t read. Now… I read a lot. But it’s unquestionable that buying books is a pleasurable experience that is sometimes divorced from actual reading. Of course I always mean to read them when I buy them. But I definitely buy more […]

The lazy girl’s guide to happiness

I am not one for domestic chores. I like a clean house and good food, I just don’t like to be the one to provide them. So I have set up my life to be about as lazy as possible in these areas. It leaves me open to be creative. My favorite enablers: Seamless and […]

Beating around the bush

So, it looks like Billy Bush is losing his job for his sick egging on of Donald Trump eleven years ago as Trump bragged about being able to do whatever he wanted to women due to his celebrity. You might be surprised to hear this, but that fact does not make me happy. It doesn’t […]
