  • Facebook Rants and the Woman with No Pants

    When you say things like, “I don’t understand Facebook,” you risk sounding ancient, un-hip, dumb — none of which looks good on a resume.

    That said, I don’t understand Facebook.
     

    I signed up – well, ok, my daughter signed me up – for the same reason I do a lot of things, because someone told me I should.
     

    I should point out that this rule of thumb has not always worked well for me in the past. Once I shopped at a boutique because someone told me I should, ended up spending $1,300 and getting sued for defamation. I would explain, but not sure I want to go down that road again.
     

  • Eating Brownies, Listening to Fogelberg

    Most days it is my computer that beckons to me like an only friend. And then other days, like today, it is a pan of brownies. Make that two pans of brownies. Two pyrexes of my mother’s brownie recipe that I brought to a friend for Mother’s Day, but are now back in my house because she did not want her family to gorge themselves on the leftovers.
     

    No, much better that my family/I gorge.
