		<description><![CDATA[Whenever it comes up, and I mention to someone that I was &#8220;poor&#8221; growing up, no one ever really understands what I mean.  They think I mean &#8220;poor&#8221; as in &#8220;not rich&#8221;, and tell me that they were, too. But I don&#8217;t mean &#8220;poor&#8221;, as in &#8220;I couldn&#8217;t afford a car when I was a [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Defensive drivers get into more accidents than aggressive ones.  A friend who  deals daily with people in auto-collisions just told me so.  He explained that aggressive drivers cause accidents, but that defensive drivers get into them.  I found this distressing.  He said that he toggles between both manners of driving depending on his needs.  I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I was out of the office sick for all of last week, and spent some time chatting with an old friend to keep myself occupied.  (It gets really boring being home when you&#8217;d normally be at work.)  She told me about how she had recently run into a former peer of hers from her elementary [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An evening out with the girls always turns into a rant about the office.  We each have our qualms. One told the story of how she resigned.  When the day came that she was ready to quit, she drafted her letter of resignation, but she didn&#8217;t just hand it in..  Every day that followed, she [...]]]></description>

I said I didn&#8217;t want to get into the habit of overblogging, and turn into a Twitter-shitter. I said I didn&#8217;t want the information that I shared publicly to be redundant across platforms.  That is, I wanted to thoughtfully coordinate [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I vowed to not turn this blog into a place where I publicly wrote about my day-to-day. That being the case, I didn&#8217;t bother with the WordPress Apps.  My posts were never the sort of posts that needed to be posted with urgency. They are thoughtful reflections of times long past, but not long forgotten. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Okay, so a great many things went &#8220;wrong&#8221; in the last two years, and in an attempt to find meaning in the disarray, I abandoned all of my &#8220;best practices&#8221; and &#8220;goals&#8221; in hopes of finding new ones. I realize how erratic that game plan was. It was more like a misguided twist on Einstein&#8217;s [...]]]></description>
