Snippets of Summer.
Sweet Summer: It is making its slow, inevitable disappearance. And while I truly do enjoy all four seasons, I must admit I’m more than ready for fall. Bring on the cardigans; bring on the pumpkins. Let us north-easterners dry off our sweaty summer armpits and rejoice in the brisk autumn winds. But Snap, you’re getting […]

Just Another Day in Paradise, Yo. . . . Hi. How are you, Dear Reader? How do you feel today: body, mind, and soul? Pause. Think. Answer honestly. Me? I’m doing just fine, thanks. I’m currently sitting on our RV love seat, clicking past the miles somewhere between Ohio and Indiana. Sweet Baby Snap is […]

Wait Awhile.
A Weirdo, Cerebral Reflection from Yours Truly. . . . Wouldn’t it be something if our every thought could be documented? Like, our dreams could be stored away in The Vault of Complete Memories, which I visualize as a rather Soviet-looking building, filled with hundreds of books and videotapes. Every dream, pondering, or musing filed […]

Hi! And welcome to the latest addition to my Desert Island Picks. In case you missed my little advertisement, I’ve decided to award ten–yes, only ten—top albums of my life.

Again.
A weirdo-artist rant from a SnapDragon near you. . . . I like who I am. Really, I do. But it’s hard to be a thinker sometimes. A dweller. A stew-er. An inspired little nugget of a human. Even as a kid, I was dominated by my own thoughts: Should. Should. Should. Should. Should. Should. […]

On Friends.
This past month or so has been filled with visits from those who were starting to feel like long-lost friends. (Pandemically speaking, that is.) It truly has been joyous to see so many (vaccinated!) loved ones after at least eight(ish) months of diligent social isolation on our part. And I’m not gonna lie: it was […]

On Curls & Icy Beverages.
Wuddup, Dear Reader? Greetings to you and yours, after my small blogging break. I’m currently lounging (?) in the driver’s seat of my car. Baby Snap is snoozing in the back, so I pulled into one of a trillion strip malls on The Main Line. Starbucks in hand. AC blasting. I even scored a free […]

Re-Snap: Just Go.
