		<description><![CDATA[A friend of mine messaged me on Facebook today and mentioned that she was sad that the new newsfeed settings didn’t allow her to see my posts.

		<description><![CDATA[I think about marriage and divorce a lot. In part, because I am married and have been with my husband now for 20 years. Ours is the longest running, happiest and most stable relationship I know besides that of some of our friends&#8217; parents. I have plenty of friends who are in good, stable and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I got into a discussion on Facebook yesterday about immigration and why I am not okay with illegal immigrants benefitting from government programs. The response to that comment really surprised me, because one of the commenters was a green card holder and he found no problem at all with the idea that people who were [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;A dog has no use for fancy cars or big homes or designer clothes. Status symbols mean nothing to him. A water-logged stick will do just fine. A dog judges others not by their color or creed or class but by who they are inside. A dog doesn&#8217;t care if you are rich or poor, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve hit a place with my script where I am in the doldrums. It&#8217;s just barely the beginning of week two of Script Frenzy and I&#8217;m bored with my script. My characters seem somehow less sparkly and beautiful. They seem flat and lackluster. Every time I sit down in front of my laptop to write, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Sometime over the weekend (Friday or Saturday, but I am not sure which day exactly because I forgot to log it), I bent down to hold Lucy&#8217;s face in my hands and kiss her nose. My fingers are usually on her neck when I do this, with my thumbs on her cheeks. This maneuver serves [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The morning routine in this house doesn&#8217;t get deviated from, even on weekends. This is why I was up at 6:30 am this morning. Mugen must be let out, must have breakfast and must have a play time while I read my forums and drink my coffee. It will take me 20 or 30 minutes [...]]]></description>
