See that photo below? That’s me, Sarah Lawson (now Sarah Birch), listed as “friendliest” in the yearbook superlatives. Friendliness is easy for an extrovert like me. My best friend likes to recount the tale about the time I had such a great conversation with the...

There’s been a lot of talk about people’s “guiding word” of 2020. I’ve never really been a “guiding word” kind of person. Why should each year get a word? Can I choose the same word as I did last year? Just kidding, I didn’t choose one last year, nor any year before...

“By the way, there’s a broken couch upside down in my living room,” I said, as I transported some out-of-town friends from the airport to my home. No one even batted an eye. They asked for the story, of course, because with me, there’s always a story, but no one was...

“Canadians?” the comedian said in front of the crowd. “What brings you to Chicago?” We told him it was a birthday celebration trip. “Oh! Is it your birthday this weekend?” he asked. “No, this YEAR!” we responded. The audience laughed. As three friends with young...
