Many new visitors popped over here this week. So, welcome! It’s been a bit quiet around these parts for the last week — I’m happily ensconced at my parents’ lake house, where the Internet was spotty over the weekend and I lacked a laptop charger for days. And the view has been a bit distracting,… Continue reading hello, friends
First Fig – Edna St. Vincent Millay My candle burns at both ends; It will not last the night; But ah, my foes, and oh, my friends — It gives a lovely light. Not the poetry dose for the week.

Isn’t it funny How a bear likes honey? Today, I’ll let that old tumblr speak for itself:
Hey, you! My post today is just pointing you in another direction — I have a piece up at Verily: …A part of me believed that if I didn’t figure out my trajectory during my third decade of life, I would already be behind.

But my tumblr is full of very glamorous things I… Continue reading tbt tumblr vol 4: vacations i have not been on
Yesterday, the temperature dropped almost 20 degrees, with highs in the low 80s. I was in HEAVEN. I kind of forgot that I do enjoy summer when it is not extreme. But winter still sounded like a far-off memory. So let’s remember… Because I do really like Christmas and snow. But not really winter. Hrrrmmm. I… Continue reading tbt tumblr vol 3: i really like christmas and snow
It’s roughly ten million degrees in DC right now, and I am NOT a happy camper about it. I told my mom that I live on the surface of the sun. This is patently not true, and there are way hotter places to live. I just think I genuinely enjoy complaining about the weather. This… Continue reading tbt tumblr vol. 2: charming outdoor things that do not reflect my life
Things are real creative around here this week, apparently… (joking). But here are some highly clickable links for your Friday! 1. You might have seen on my Instagram that I was blessed to celebrate the 50th Birthday of L’Arche a few weeks ago!

Welcome to an exciting new series here on this here blog, where I share awesome things I once shared on my Tumblr, which I haven’t really touched in two years. Turns out, I like my past-self a lot and thought you might enjoy what college Brigid and just-graduated-from-college Brigid was interested in, too.
