I’ve Moved!
I’m no longer here. I’m now over at my fancy new website: http://www.soullikeaspider.com. I’ve moved over to a domain name of my own, added a couple pages, and did a complete redesign on a new platform. Those of you who subscribe with an RSS reader, please make sure to switch the URL over to http://www.soullikeaspider.com/blog/rss.xml to […]
To Capture a Whisper
July 15, 2011
“How do I love thee? Let me count the ways” and let me write for you for a lifetime and use all the ink I can find to try to tell you what I hardly have the mechanics to express. (Even when I’m trying!) A new dawn of love is rising over our little white […]
I remember, don’t worry.
June 3, 2011
I’m listening to Duke Ellington and walking through town. Orange light is spilling across the pavement and headlights are starting to come on. The smell of fried food coming from a Chinese restaurant from a nearby plaza seems more like an emotion than a scent. It reminds me of that one evening several years ago […]
Love and Simplicity: Why the World Could Have Ended
May 25, 2011
My husband and I woke up slowly, but earlier than usual on Saturday. When we were awake enough to talk, we laid in bed swapping dream stories and laughing. Our new crimson sheets felt wonderful against my skin as I glanced up at the ceiling trying to piece together what I still remembered from my […]
Discoveries of the Universe #1
March 29, 2011

Flint and Florence
February 2, 2011
“Everything is solvable,” you said, “with the exception of what happened at the corner of Flint and Florence.” That hot summer split right down the middle and I carried it in the back of my ribcage like a sickness that always left me feeling like I was in love but wasn’t in the right place. […]
Clamor! Katzenjammer! (Happy New Year: I)
January 14, 2011
I set my things down on the table and put them in their proper places (because everything has to be organized, and things always have places, even in public). Water and hot coffee on the right, keyboard on the left. Two creams, no sugar. I like the feeling of my sweater on my arms and […]
an admission to the blackbird in the breezeway
November 23, 2010
i tried to trap you in the attic but got distracted by the yellowjackets and the butterflies by sucking the nectar out of the rotting apples underneath the tree that is half alive, half dead but now you’re by the window looking out into the front yard flying chair to chair in the coldest room […]
About Me
I'm a newlywed from southeast Michigan. I read and write often, and am beginning to cook just as much. I love tattoos, homemade peanut butter, Community coffee, bluegrass, documentaries, Chuck Klosterman, and hair dye.
