In anticipating of dropping my landline, I am looking for a hands-free headset for my cell phone, preferrably one that doesn’t make me look like a Borg. I am notorious for calling people while I am doing housework, but it’s much harder to do that with a cell, so… suggestions, please?

Why, Shonda, why? Don’t you love your show? If thousands of [...]
No beautiful things today because it has been one of those days where nothing is beautiful, so even though I had this post all written out in my head yesterday (I could tell you what the three things were, but that would be CHEATING), I can’t post it today because it’s not a beautiful Thursday.

“You are coming to a sad realization. Cancel or allow?” There’s just no way that’s not funny!
Before we begin: Because I am nothing if not up on my sports rivalries, and because I care about keeping y’all informed, Carolina just beat Duke at Duke. Let the rejoicing in Chapel Hill begin.
I just finished Zadie Smith’s On Beauty, and it was excellent. At times, I had to make myself put it down [...]
