We all know what fall means: football, a crazy-quilt of leaves, winking jack o’ lanterns, and pumpkin-spiced everything. But to those of us lucky enough to have discovered it in school, fall also means cross country. Cross country is what happened when someone said, “Hey, I’m tired of racing in circles!

I've decided to make it doubly confusing by 1) posting here for the first time in a while and 2) by changing my username.

So what's been going on? I know I posted in Loopville that DH and I are expecting our first child - a girl! - in Ja
