YKWIM #98: You are not a jigglypuff
The 100th newsletter is on the horizon and it’s going to be a question & answer extravaganza. You can leave those questions right here. I mentioned in a previous newsletter that I won a speech contest in seventh grade but I neglected to tell the story of what happened after. First, I cannot...

YKWIM 97: For My Young Friends Who Are Afraid
The 100th newsletter is coming up and it’s a Q&A special. Feel free to leave your Qs here. I read Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management For Morals by Oliver Burkeman about a month ago and it’s been on my mind ever since. I’ve tried to describe it to mixed results (Me: “It’s basically about coming…

YKWIM #95: Flowers
I’m honestly embarrassed with what I’m about to confess. I feel like I’m still young(ish??) and should know a better solution, but instead, here’s where I am. My iCloud storage is full, more than half of it from photos and videos. In lieu of actually going through it all and deleting things…

YKWIM #94: How to Triumph Like a Girl
Oh hi! There’s a few more people here today. Thanks Karen for including this ol’ newsletter in your newsletter round-up, I’m basically the rosy check smiley emoji right now. I mean, I usually am in real life, but that’s like, rosacea. So, I came across this photo I took a few years ago of a list…

Hey pals. I didn’t plan on taking off the month of March but sometimes that’s how it goes. Hope everyone was well in the meantime. On Friday, I saw Angels in America Part One: Millennium Approaches at the Pittsburgh Playhouse and I haven’t been able to stop thinking about it since. I’ve been…

YKWIM #92: I Want to Write Something So Simply
I was working at the South Portland Library earlier this week when I looked up and saw the two words that have been haunting me most of my life: WHY WRITE? Babe, if I knew the answer to that question, I wouldn’t be here right now. I’ve quit writing more than anything else in my life and since...

That’s right, it’s everyone’s favorite time of year, my belated Valentine’s Day gift from me to you: a list of… Personal Recommendations * Bob and Brad. Did you know the muscles and ligaments in your body are all connected in one wicked web? Terrible yet true. So, if you were to fall down a…

YKWIM #90: The Good Life
First, thank you for the kind words and cups of coffee as I recovered from my ankle sprain. It’s doing much better and even my bum knee is getting there too. Bodies are so strange and fragile. I hope you’re taking care of yours in the ways you need to, even if no one else seems to understand. I…

YKWIM #89: Reasons to Log Off
It started a couple weeks ago. That terrible Screen Time notification popped up like it does every week and this time I actually looked instead of swiping it aside. Good grief, this is embarrassing. The whole joke about breaking up with my phone was not a joke anymore. I needed SPACE. I turned on...

YKWIM #88: Would I live my life over again? Make the same unforgivable mistakes?
me at 17, 2002 Growing up, whenever I tried to picture Future Andrea, she always had blonde hair and carried a briefcase. Me at 30? Blonde with a briefcase, looking sort of like Dawn from The (old) Babysitter’s Club TV show if she went to law school. Not because I wanted to be blonde (no thanks)…

A Conversation We Would Probably Have If You Could Have One With Me You: So! Andrea! What’s been going on? Me: Oh hey! You know, nothing much, about the same. You: Really, the same?

YKWIM #86: i am running into a new year
Just a quick hello from me for the first time in months. The last quarter of the year has been a year unto itself. Not in a negative way.
