I like him so much that I am willing to post this picture on the web.Yep.He’s pretty awesome. I am pretty positive that Greg Laswell and Ingrid Michaelson are married. They were wearing matching bands and he introduced her as “my dear dear dear (pause) Ingrid”. It was kind of heaven. Next purchase: Greg Laswell’sContinue reading “Greg Laswell at Ingrid: Part 3”

Greg Holden at Ingrid–Part 2
The infamous Melissa Branin, Greg Holden, and Me! This is Greg Holden. He’s from Northern England. He was the opening act at the show and he kind of cracks me up. Very cute. Loved his stuff. Here’s a sample of his cover “Walking on Sunshine”. Check out his song “Choking on Concrete” as well.
Ingrid–Part 1
Last night was heavenly–sort of. I’ve seen Ingrid before and it was clear that there were some difficulties. 1st–Allie was sick. The last time I saw Ingrid Michaelson, it felt like most of the songs were duets between Ingrid and Allie, and you could tell the loss of Allie was a big bummer. 2nd–There wereContinue reading “Ingrid–Part 1”
All Things Girly
Without realizing it, I’ve taken this Blog into a very Girly realm. Feminism, Young Women, Being Single . . . Interesting . . . Things I am doing that aren’t girly: I am currently reading the book Sea of Faith: Islam and Christianity in the Medieval Mediterranean World by Stephen O’Shea. I watch Family GuyContinue reading “All Things Girly”
Personal Progress
I work in the Young Women’s as the assistant Personal Progress leader. I kind of viewed it as a non-calling. I’m pretty sure they invented it. But, that little distinction has made it all the better! I go to activities when I can, and I enjoy myself when I’m there. But, I don’t feel horrendouslyContinue reading “Personal Progress”
Feminism
I had a great conversation with my friend Alisha about feminism on Friday. How many of you know a man (or a woman for that matter) who believes he’s very hip to equal rights for women, and then they say something that sheds light on their true feelings on the subject? When it comes toContinue reading “Feminism”

Eggs, fake blood, steel cut oatmeal, and coconutsmoothed into my hair.Lotsa make-up=really gross me I had to leave the party early and come home and shower. I am clean now. And Happy. We gave away lots of gummy eyeballs to the kids in our neighborhood. I love trick or treaters!
Finding My Way
I’ve been reading Lao Tse’s words this week. Why? Because. It’s nice to contemplate something new and simple. Here are some of my favorites: He who knows much about others may be learned, but he who understands himself is more intelligent. He who controls others may be powerful, but he who has mastered himself isContinue reading “Finding My Way”
A Calm and Collected Letter
Dear Whoever My Boss is: I would address you personally, but I have no idea who I report to. Today has been a “not too hot” day. I was unable to print off my assignments this morning on the faculty printer. I was asked to send students to see their advisor during a class break.Continue reading “A Calm and Collected Letter”
Finding the Right Attitude
Yesterday I confessed to Sarah and Mike that I think life might be easier if I just made the mental leap into singlehood. Mike said I should stop thinking that way, and I agree. I talked with another friend who is thinking about freezing her eggs so that when she meets the right guy, she’llContinue reading “Finding the Right Attitude”
