Snarky, short answer: right here, silly. Longer, more convoluted answer: it's complicated. I haven't posted here since late February and that's no good. Spam comments have begun piling up in my Akismet queue. Pageviews are down. I can practically see the virtual tumbleweeds … Read More »
Infertility Ink
I do not have a tattoo. You might think that this is because I'm Jewish and that Jews with tattoos can't be buried in Jewish cemeteries. Turns out, that's actually Jewish urban legend. Still, the Torah technically forbids that Jews get tattoos. But that doesn't mean I don't … Read More »

Through a unique opportunity with Larry's job, I got to tag along on a truly once in a lifetime trip to Times Square for New Year's Eve this year. What made this opportunity so unique is that I wasn't one of the million people down between the barricades on the streets along … Read More »
