		<title>After Birthday Check-Up</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Every year, on the day after my birthday, I like to take stock of my life to make sure that everything is running as smoothly as a Swiss watch.
That&#8217;s why I made an appointment for this morning to see Doctor Teitelbaum, my family doctor.
&#8220;How&#8217;s it going with you and Sophia?&#8221; he asked as he took [...]]]></description>

		<title>Dunbar&#8217;s Number</title>
		<description><![CDATA[If the idea behind this Dunbar&#8217;s number is correct, what does this say about the way most of us deal with blogging, social media, community, social status, and online friendship?

		<title>Need to Sleep</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Writing on the iPhone is so personal.  I am in bed.  I am thinking about you, but I don&#8217;t know you.  I hold you in my hands as I type.  My thumb slides over and around your tender keys, hoping to create letters and words that please you, that connect us [...]]]></description>

		<title>Codependent</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I was reading a little about codependency after an IM conversation with Juli Ryan, a blogger living in New Zealand, who was kind enough to say, &#8220;I think you might be co-dependent,&#8221; in that blunt manner that Kiwis are famous for, or at least I imagine them to be. 
How long can this status quo [...]]]></description>

		<title>Carpool Lane</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am enjoying writing posts on my iPhone.  They tend to be short, snapshots of half-baked ideas, complete with amusing errors from the spell-checker, passages with no literary value. 
I am sitting in the waiting room of Sophia&#8217;s therapist, dragged along at the last minute as the live carpool dummy, so she could make [...]]]></description>

		<title>Everything Wrong</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My feet want to write.  My fingers want to run.  My brain wants to rest between your soft breasts.  My cock wants to worry.  Everything right is everything wrong.  My soul wants the nourishment from a thousand deserts.
Nonsense on the iPhone 1:20AM

		<title>Couples</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Before she left for Florida, I asked my mother if she wanted me to set her up a Flickr account.  She said she doesn&#8217;t really like seeing photos on the computer.  She prefers the snapshot that you can hold in your hand.   When you can touch the photo, place it in [...]]]></description>
