Today’s Think Kit prompt: What was the wisest decision you made this year? Who did it impact? Describe your decision-making process, discuss the results or just share a little learned wisdom. Would it be bad to simply say that the wisest decision I’ve made all year is to cancel a vacation in order to save … Continue reading
Today’s Think Kit prompt: Share the strangest experience of your year. Did you do something new or unexpected, see something out of the ordinary, or have a unique experience? What was so strange about it? I think my strange experiences can be summed up best in the form of pictures. I think the best parts … Continue reading
I’m taking a lifeline today for Think Kit because last time I tried to poll an audience, I got zero feedback (I’m still searching for a good gym downtown and the best salad for lunch, by the way). So here’s the prompt I’m going with today: Was there an art experience that stood out this year? What … Continue reading
Think Kit is back! And it’s a good thing because life has most definitely gotten in the way of my personal blogging. Today’s prompt: Document your year in photos. Did one photo encapsulate your year?

I have the travel bug. I’m itching to get out of this miserable cold weather and onto a beach. Actually, I wouldn’t mind if it wasn’t a beach, just something that wasn’t here.
