There was this really smart scientist guy who said that people can learn a lot from dogs. He said that when someone you love walks through the door, even if it happens five times a day, you should go totally insane with joy.

This is my first feature in the Portland Monthly — really fun to have it come out right now (when I’m home waiting for baby #2 to make her appearance). It was fantastic working with them; their editorial team is thoughtful, conscientious, kind, creative, and makes changes that actually feel like they make my writing better.
