JUNIOR / SENIOR BANQUETIt was yet another memorable milestone at the end of this year… The girls were stunning–every single one of them! Some were the epitome of decorum… And others were…well…a tad less formal! Even self-professed unemotional stoics caught the romantic bug! It was my honor–as always–to attend with my very favorite cohort-in-crime…the lovely […]
THE FIRST ANNUALOLD HAGS vs. SNOTTY BRATSBOWLING CHAMPIONSHIP It was an epic battle resulting in The thrill of victory: …and the agony of “da feet”: (defeat…”da feet”…get it? As in, “the agony of defeat”. Please laugh on the dotted line: …………………………………… Is it just me, or am I channeling Mr. Bateman??) The rugrats came on […]
It was time for another spring party tonight…and time for another general soaking. Storch seniors looked lovely despite the ickiness. (NOTE: The alert readers among you might notice the honorary Storch senior who snuck into the photo gallery! I have only four words to say: cat–intersection–narnia–photo. Those in the know will know what I mean…) […]
I love (love, love, LOVE) Storch’s seniors. You haven’t really experienced them until they’ve played too many rounds of charades, eaten too many servings of tiramisu, and left WAY too many messages on their former dorm parents’ answering machine! Thankfully, Paul and Beth love them as much as I do and actually saved the […]
September, 1982. It is late. My first day at a new school in a new country surrounded by new people is behind me. I survived it–kind of. My body stayed present while my mind reeled at so much newness. It traveled away from painful reality and clung to memories, wishes and yearning. I am at BFA […]
I think I might be sick. I mean seriously, mind-and-body sick. You see, I’ve always been a promoter of boredom. Boredom is my friend. Boredom means I have time–time to catch up on emails, time to read silly books, time to go on much needed, shrink-the-tummy-goiter walks, time to wander over to France for a […]
Ah, Paris! Comme je t’adore!!! Just back from 48 action-packed hours in the city of love with…well…Mari Ellen, but hey, if it can’t be George Clooney. she’s the next best thing–for entirely different reasons! Day one was: Mont-Martre, P?e Lachaise (cemetery), Notre Dame, St. Germain des Pr? (church), the Champs Elys?s (Planet Hollywood!!), and the […]
Hello everyone! It’s nearly April, and the big news for the month is: A SUPER-DUPER BOOK SALE!! Looking for something to take home to mom for Easter break? Thinking ahead to birthdays that are happening in the next few months? Wanting to send something to someone who doesn’t “get” the MK thing? Look no further! […]
Okay, so I trotted across the Riedlingen valley yesterday to watch a movie with my buddy Renee, her phlegmatic posterchild hubby, and her bubbly friend Bee. At least, that’s what I told myself as I got closer and closer to a house where I knew popcorn would be flowing in insanely vast proportions for the […]
I believe Jeremy’s life was hanging in the balance when last I wrote. He had carelessly spoken words that had spurred me toward revenge, and I was pondering the various avenues my retribution might take. For further details, read the previous entry! To be truthful, I must admit that my vengeful instincts have taken a […]
