I had a ninety-minute full-body massage on Saturday. It was wonderful, but it took me a little while to fully relax.

With two months of 2018 behind us, I thought it would be an appropriate time to update you on my year so far. I’ve dealt with a lot of changes lately, some of them good, some of them bad, and some of them bittersweet. The good. In the beginning of January, I flew to California […]
