I’m reading A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle (yes, I know Oprah’s big on it right now.) Anyway, I find the book rather interesting when it comes to ideas of ego, enlightenment and evolution. It’s worth picking up, if you like the whole New Age-y spiritual thing.
Yesterday, I read this sentence in the book, “The [...]

Dman and I are heading to the French Alps for a ski weekend. Exciting!
To preface all this, I’ve only gone skiing once in my life when I was fourteen. In the Poconos. Right after a growth spurt. So me being all gangly arms and legs with no sense of balance… I came back with both [...]
