I go to therapy not far from Fenway Park and Kenmore Square, a land of ample metered parking. Usually.

Yes, I AM totally serious about being excited. I am unashamed about my love for the Backstreet Boys, Britney Spears, and Kelly Clarkson. I will have you know […]

Why yes, that was me singing at the top of my lungs this morning in my car.
Why yes, that was “You Are the Sun” by Lionel Richie.
What, you love that song too?

Your weekend moment of Zen is brought to you by the Better Half, who poured me my FOURTH glass of prosecco not long ago.
It’s true– once the bubbles are gone, it’s no good.

The landlord had some serious work done on the studio that adjoins the house this week, and there was hammering and prepping and sawing all weekend into Tuesday, the smell of sawdust and hot metal and tar paper and roofing chemicals filling the air.
