The Most Over-hyped Time of the Year

December 9, 2021 By Julie Lomoe Leave a Comment

The Most Over-hyped Time of the Year

Just over two weeks till Christmas, and I haven’t trimmed the tree or hung the lights, but I’m getting into the holiday spirit. Next week I’ll have my brand-new dentures—the best Christmas present I could imagine, and I’m grateful to my husband for footing the cost, since our insurance doesn’t cover it. I’m looking forward to… [Read More]

The Luxury of Late Summer Lassitude

The Luxury of Late Summer Lassitude

For the past few days, I’ve had every intention of writing something meaningful about Labor Day, but I was too busy being lazy. I told myself I had every right to wallow in sloth over the holiday weekend, but it’s three days later and I’m still wallowing. As a long-retired senior citizen, I’ve earned the… [Read More]

Is it just me, or does anger management get easier with age? It’s taken me decades, but everyday aggravations don’t get me nearly as riled up as they used to. Is it simply that my psychotropic meds are working the way they should? Is it because of hormonal and biochemical changes as I creep toward… [Read More]

Entropy Part II – the lure of laziness

It’s high noon, and my Nia* class at the YMCA is just ending. Over a dozen women sit cross-legged on the floor as Richele says a prayer of gratitude. Unfortunately, I’m not there – I’m just getting out of bed. No, I’m not sick. I’m just lazy. When 10:30 rolled around, time to don my… [Read More]

Entropeia – Goddess of Disorder

October 25, 2011 By webmaster Leave a Comment

Entropeia – Goddess of Disorder

I’ve long been fascinated by the concept of entropy, the idea that chaos and disorder tend to increase in a closed system. I’m not talking about the scientific explanations – the second law of thermodynamics and all the inscrutable equations that remind me of why science courses terrified me in college. Rather, I’m using the… [Read More]
