		<title>Breaking through</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Mama suggested in a comment on my last post that perhaps I have writer&#8217;s block.&#160; She referenced this: I do not have Sophia’s problem. (They left out my favorite part: After Blanche says she hasn’t written a word, Dorothy says that isn’t writer’s block, otherwise we’d all have it!) Although I think she was really [...]]]></description>

		<title>Happy Chanukah!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just the second of eight crazy nights! I hope everyone is enjoying the holiday season.&#160; I have one more day of work this week, then I’m going to enjoy my four-day weekend! Tomorrow is going to be close to fifty degrees here, so it’s a real winter wonderland (and I’d like it to stay this [...]]]></description>

		<title>It&#8217;s been a long, long, long time.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yeah, I know. What can I do?&#160; So here’s an update on what’s been happening around here. At the end of October, I went to Tampa to visit JP, my southern nephew (and his parents, of course)!&#160; The weather was beautiful, I ran every day (two days on a nice paved trail for four(ish) miles [...]]]></description>

		<title>Double birthday!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just a quick shout-out to wish a happy birthday to my brother Adam and my cousin Lil. Adam was Lil&#8217;s eighth birthday present, which is odd since Lil turns 27 today and Adam is pushing 40 (it&#8217;s official now!). I hope you both have fabulous birthdays!]]></description>

		<title>Ten years (or so)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I graduated from college ten years ago this past May.&#160; I spent my freshman year commuting to the university not far from my house, and then I transferred to Binghamton University, which is about two hours from home.&#160; I wanted to go away for my first year, too, but that didn’t happen.&#160; When I did [...]]]></description>

		<title>Whoops!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, it seems I have a blog.&#160; Whoops.&#160;&#160; I really have been meaning to post an update since I wrote my last post more than a month ago.&#160; (If you haven&#8217;t read my previous post, you really should.&#160; It&#8217;s a good one.&#160; Totally worth being at the top of the page for that long.)&#160; Anyway, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Paul McCartney, Yankee Stadium, July 15, 2011</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The last time I was in New York City was in 2009 to see Paul McCartney at Citi Field and to spend time with Cousin First (a.k.a. Lil), of course.&#160; This weekend, I spent more time with Lil…and also saw Paul perform the first of two shows at Yankee Stadium! When the concert was first [...]]]></description>

		<title>Eight!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’m in Canada this weekend to celebrate an important birthday.&#160; No, not the United States’, which would be weird, seeing how I left the country and all.&#160; So whose birthday is it? It’s The Pie’s eighth birthday!&#160; The Pie is my oldest niece (for those who don’t know), and I absolutely cannot believe she is [...]]]></description>

		<title>When I&#8217;m running</title>
		<description><![CDATA[…I&#8217;m always listening to the same Paul McCartney playlist on my iPod.  I keep thinking of changing it up, but I never do.   …and I pass someone on the street, I&#8217;ll usually try to smile or nod or wave.  Most people will respond in a like manner.  Other people are jerks.   …I&#8217;m usually [...]]]></description>
