I spent a lot of time the other night reading up on the Gilded Age because I was thinking about writing up a political post. Found I don’t quite have the stamina to wade into that right now. Instead, Chris and I spent a Kate-free weekend at home. Because Zipcar has removed virtually all [...] Today certainly felt like spring. Sunny and low 60s most of the day, which I was immensely glad to see.

Or so I thought. Pramas seems to have kindly brought it home for me. I don’t mean to be ungrateful but man, if I’m going to get con crud I [...] Our Homeowner’s Association is really pissing me off. We received a notice from them on Wednesday that a budget ratification meeting is being held the Tuesday before Christmas.
