I know exactly where I went wrong. It’s the same place I always go off the rails. I come home, tipsy after an evening of visiting and chatting and drinking and eating with good friends, and I decide to hop on the computer while drinking a glass of water or two. You know, to metabolize…

On the Agenda: Teen Angst.
I got a personal calendary agenda thing! It’s purple and CUTE and named after Positano. (Here’s big blog stepping in to tell you why that appealed to me so strongly.) Also, every single page inside is more adorable than the last. I can’t wait to ruin it all by writing all over it with my…
Monday again?
Yes! How did that happen? We had a nice weekend. Seriously nice. The Blue Genie Art Bazaar turns out to be a lovely place for gift-buying. We found some pretty good tortas. We ate pizza at Bufalina, which was wonderful and for once not ridiculously crowded. And we went to a party! When did I…

At Nana’s

You’d think that after 15 months of living exclusively out of our backpacks (detailed fairly extensively over at the old blog, boots in the oven), packing…
Liberry
I love our library. It’s comfortable, and there aren’t nearly as many vagrants loitering in it as there were in Chicago’s Blackstone Library, my childhood ‘berry. Austin’s North Village Library is missing the grand neoclassical columns of the Blackstone, but it has giant skylights and hybrid car parking and is just generally sunny, airy, and…
