    Thank you, everyone, for your congratulatory emails and comments – both here and on Flickr. They mean a lot to us. It’s been a long three months. There were times I wanted to just scream, “I’M PREGNANT! That’s why I’m being such a bitch! That’s why I can’t stop spitting!” But I held back. I’m…

    The phrase, “The rabbit died,” came to be a euphemism for a positive pregnancy test in the early twentieth century.

    I am on this new kick because my commute on the L train sucks so very badly. Today, I waited for 45 minutes before an unpacked train entered the Graham station. My fellow commuters were livid. Three out of five days this week were an absolute nightmare while riding the L Train. Today, I decided…

    Today, I was in the elevator waiting for my stop. I was with a man who was probably about 45 and a woman, age 35. She stood behind me holding a bag in front of her. She was a slender woman, attractive, too. It’s not every day someone speaks in an elevator. I have heard…
