There’s a disturbing trend on the streets these days that seems to be getting worse by the hour. People no longer know how to yield. Or, rather, the lack of it really comes down to two things: they’re either unaware or they’re selfish. Ever been driving along with everything going swimmingly until you put your blinker […]
I managed to do what’s damn near impossible for most people: I burned my microwave dinner. Last time I was at the store, I happened upon some frozen “lean gourmet” pepperoni pizza snackers. Hm. A way to get my pizza fix that’s both lean and gourmet? Sign me up. They weren’t bad. I made a […]

In three days’ time, I covered five airports, gave myself two heel blisters, broke a toenail, two fingernails, managed to consume the equivalent of two bottles of wine and accidentally ran over a fellow traveler’s foot with my wheeled, eager to off-road carry-on bag.
