I’m Not a Doctor, but I Play One on the Web
By Michele Wojciechowski on May 27, 2021
While I love the Internet, there’s one thing about it that makes me run screaming away from my computer. Is it because I can learn—up to the minute—what crisis is going on in the lives of each and every Kardashian? Nope. Because I keep getting ads that ask if I want to become a million-dollar […]

Why Am I in This Room?
By Michele Wojciechowski on April 9, 2015
I have an excellent memory. Really—in that it’s so good that sometimes it’s almost creepy. Here’s an example for you: I’ll hear a song on the radio or while my husband and I are out. Here’s what comes next, I say something like, “I remember this song! It was out the first year we were […]

The Tooth, the Whole Tooth, and Nothing But the Tooth
By Michele Wojciechowski on October 9, 2014
Everyone has fears. Some people are afraid of snakes (not me). Or public speaking (not me, again). Or going to the dentist (still not me…oh, wait).

Let Your Fingers Do the Walking…
By Michele Wojciechowski on September 25, 2014
THUNK! That used to be the sound we would hear when the delivery man would plunk down two huge phone books on our front steps—the white pages and the yellow pages. We used them all the time. As the internet has become so important in our daily lives, I haven’t used one of those phone […]

Scamming Me in Another Language
By Michele Wojciechowski on July 31, 2014
If you’ve ever been on the internet for any length of time like say, oh five minutes or so, then you know what it is full of… Lots of amazing information, beautiful photos, fun facts, thought-provoking material, and videos of every kind that you could ever imagine. Yeah, that’s exactly what I was going to […]

If I Were in the Olympics
By Michele Wojciechowski on February 13, 2014
Do you know when the Olympics are taking place? No, me neither… It’s not like we can turn on the television, radio, internet, or even look at any magazine or newspaper without knowing what the latest event is and who won, who lost, who’s too fat, who’s too thin, who let everyone down, and who […]

The Internet: a Blessing and a Curse
By Michele Wojciechowski on August 17, 2012
I love the internet for so many reasons… I love it because it enables me to have Facebook, and I’ve reconnected with so many people I thought would only remain part of my past. I love it because it makes my work so much easier. When I’m finished with an article or essay, I can […]
