in the winter

February 15, 2011

In the winter
I love how huge fields of crisp white snow turn to a deep navy blue sea at night in the moonlight
and
I love the organic and undulating designs winds create in snowbanks.

top ten for two thousand and ten

January 2, 2011

It’s common for blogs to do a year in review and countdowns and such, so I’m jumping on board with my top ten.  That Girl Kyle has only been in existence since this past February, but out of some 70 odd posts so far, here’s the ones with the most reads.
10.  the insanity rant

looking for…

June 21, 2010

Keuka Lake is a strong base for my happiness in life.  It’s been a place that I’ve loved bringing friends home to when I lived out of state, and it’s been the anchor that has kept me here (and kept me happy) since moving back to New York in 2004.
I love the sunshine gleaming off [...]

the hardest part

May 7, 2010

It’s July 24, 1995.  A little over two months ago, I turned 16.
Right now I’m in the jetway that connects the airport terminal to my plane.  I’ve said goodbye to Mom and Dad, my baby sister and my friends that came to send me off.  I’m walking away from them and I can’t turn around [...]

it’s not a book, but it’s a start

April 16, 2010

On January 30th, 2009 I was laid off.  Consequently, I began collecting unemployment for the second time in less than 2 years.

April 9, 2010

Remember this past winter when folks that lived in the south had seriously harsh cold weather?  My friends in Florida were piling on the pj’s with footies, and my cousin in Texas was posting photos on Facebook of her frozen garden fountain… and a bunch of people in Washington were making themselves look like idiots [...]

Many of you also know last Friday I got a bug up my ass and seemingly out of the blue decided to take a long weekend in Chicago.
I had a great time visiting with my friends Andrea and Anthony.  But… it’s time to come [...]

i heart boxed wine

March 15, 2010

My first experience with box wine was in Australia.  (Yes, Mom, when I was 16.  Skip this paragraph, if you will.)  My host sister took me out with some friends… we hung out in the park… and polished off a box of something fruity and sweet and nasty.  I am pretty sure my host mother [...]

old memories

February 23, 2010

From an old friend in Australia with whom I have lost touch.  She sent it to me after I’d returned back home to the US.  I love it more every time I read it.
“Kyle,
This is one of my writing folio pieces for school.  I thought maybe you would like to read it because it’s about [...]
