April 26, 2008

It’s here, folks. Today is part one of the three day carnival that is, my birthday weekend. And, I know I am not 10 any more, and the days of clowns and pin the tail on the donkey have long since passed, but, deep down, I think everyone wants to feel extra special on their [...]

Worms in our bellies

April 22, 2008

“Ma! Derf een moof. DERF EEN MOOF!” Translation: “Mommy, don’t look now, but there is literally two fist fulls of dirt and other organic material in my mouth. Probably a bug or two as well. And I am eating it. Would you like to eat some too?” Gee’s, while it looks yummy sweetie, mommy is [...]

Not for everyone, but perfect for me.

April 21, 2008

Today was a good day. Lately, I find myself with so many obligations. Appointments, lunch dates, mounds of house work, and general rushing around. I always told myself I wouldn’t get caught up in things of that nature, but I’ve spent too many days staring out the window at a beautiful day I could not [...]

April 18, 2008

Listen, guy across the street, I am just as excited that it is spring time as you are. Hell, I am down right giddy about it. But, the thing is, man…your shorts. They are really short. I don’t fancy myself a fashion maven, nor do I wish to dictate what people wear in the privacy [...]

It’s not you, it’s me…and your lack of email

April 17, 2008

Listen, if you don’t have internet access and a cell phone, then we simply can’t be friends. And, it’s not because I am a technology snob. I’m not.

The old lady who lived in a shoe

April 15, 2008

Since when did I start giving off the vibe that says “hey, I am a nice complete stranger, please leave your unattended children with me, and I will watch over and nurture them until you return?” I don’t think I look overly friendly. I mean, I don’t look like a pedophile, but I have been [...]

April 15, 2008

On the rare occasion I feel lazy, snicker, I do a little cheating, and try and come up with a super fast version of something I love. This time around, wonton soup. It’s a fun way to eat chinese take out soup without wondering how long it’s been sitting in a giant pot next to [...]

Cheers Wee One

April 13, 2008

Did you know I gave birth to my youngest boy a year ago today, Friday the 13th, with a midnight marathon of The Office on TBS playing in the background? This explains why he always says “That’s what she said” when I tell him to stop touching his pee pee. Anyways, this also marks the [...]

Got change for a dollar?

April 9, 2008

If you have ever been pregnant, you can relate that the first few months are stressful, meaning, you are in a state of constant miscarriage worry. You worry about even the slightest cramp. You stare at the toilet paper after every wipe, looking for even the slightest twinge of pink. You think “Wait…I don’t feel [...]
