About

Welcome to the dumping ground for all my random thoughts and strokes of genius. Tread carefully.

P.S. The title comes from a Dorothy Parker quote. "This is not a novel to be tossed lightly aside. It should be thrown with great force."
Replace "novel" with just about anything else and you've got yourself some damn good words to live by.

Looking for something specific?

 

We got more educated, more independent, more socially aware of what’s politically correct, more permissive and open, all the right things we’ve always wanted. But relationships have gotten worse leaving successful people unhappy. Divorce rates are at their highest. What did we do wrong? Did we miss something?

I like convalescent’s answer: “I think we got so independant that we forgot that it’s important to rely on others sometimes. That made us afraid of relationships- and love.”
