I mean, the WFP doesn’t even have ANYTHING about the Chilean earthquake on its homepage. The other major NGOs barely have anything on theirs either. Unacceptable.
It’s cause earthquakes are passé now. Duh.
Have they been hit with a tsunami yet? That’ll get people going.
Okay, well, I will know more about this all when I get to work tomorrow, but here’s what...

I’m also not sure I’ve had to do this sort of thing since college application essays, but I think my chest just unconstricted for the first time in a few days.

Soft-boiled eggs are delicious and impossible. My dad used to make them a lot for us when Marissa and I were little, but my grown-up attempts equal: me burning my fingers, some really ineffective shell-peeling, some really inaccurate judging of proper doneness. But! What I figured out! Is you poach the eggs and put them in a cup and BOOM!
(And this morning’s egg-poaching trick: break...

Hey, you know what? If I know you and I love you—and if I know you there is a pretty good chance that I love you, because one of the many things Jesus and I have in common is a fairly all-encompassing policy of love for people—and you are at a place in your life where it seems like everything’s closing in and you’re not sure what to do, you are allowed to call me no matter what time it...

I’m not sure what exactly the “creepy touch on the arm” is, but I’m going to start practicing mine.
psychotherapy:
…in recent years some researchers have begun to focus on a different, often more subtle kind of wordless communication: physical contact. Momentary touches, they say — whether an exuberant high five, a warm hand on the shoulder, or a creepy touch to the arm...

the abridged version of my episode of mercy. for those who like less of a wait time between ball references.
I’m having a lot of thoughts about this.
I was a bad friend and never went through the episode on Hulu for Lance’s scenes.

Plans are in the works for my triumphant return to foodblogging, and Tanner kindly offered to rate my culinary exploits on a scale of kale to bacon. Little does he know this means the scale would run from awesome to awesomer, but I think that’ll end up being about right.

Okay, it’s not your usual good morning kitten, but it’s a good read. Good morning, sisterhood?

After seeing my friend’s school [Juilliard] play this afternoon, I headed home. I put away clean dishes, washed what was in the sink.
I caught up on tumbls and rubbed my cat’s face for a while. I made a grown-up dinner (lentil loaf and tasty kale), and ate while I watched some Olympics. I even had a little dessert. It may or may not have been cookie dough and a glass of soy milk.

I don’t know about you, but this is why I write, because I would never live days like this if I didn’t.
Taking pictures changes how I see things, but writing changes how I can feel that a day is great.

This chick. This chick is so fucking funny. She told a story that made me laugh till I cried. GONNA STALK HER.
This is so true. I was doing the sort of laughing where regular laughing isn’t enough to express the extreme, excruciating paroxysms of joy happening in my heart, so I mostly shake and my face hurts and occasionally I squeak.
The whole Tumblr reading was super fun. ...

No, I am not going to link to it. Don’t want to encourage you people. Go somewhere else. It’s cold out. I think the open bar is just beer, anyway.
