I'll try to make it to the west side before six. Her take on marriage aside, I’ve liked Sandra Tsing Loh since back before she got fired from KCRW. Thanks for the tip.

(I am trying to find the link for an article I read last year that I felt the same way about, but my brain is not working at the moment and neither is my google-fu. I'll get back to you if I track it down.)

Oh. My. God. I love it. It just hammers home everything I've always been trepidatious of about marriage. Sandra may have saved me from decades of ambivalently wondering if I'd be happier married.
