I’m Doing That Annoying Blogger Thing Where I Update In Bullets

April 16, 2009

Okay people, I'm swamped.  Work is crazy busy and I have like 82 million trials in the next 3 months.  And I'm not exaggerating.  82 million.  So I'm giving you the news in bullet form.  We got new countertops.  And I bitched and complained about having to clean out the kitchen because I didn't even [...]

Scenes From A Circus

April 15, 2009

 We did the circus in two parts.  First, an event from by the lovely people at momcentral, who invited us to a pre-circus party.  It ran pretty late, so we didn't stay for the circus that night.  Why not spend two weeks with a preschooler asking when he could see the circus? The first two [...]

Sadness

April 14, 2009

There are good things about the blogosphere and there are bad things about the blogosphere.  But the good outweighs the bad.  And one of the best things about the blogosphere is how much most of us genuinely care about each other, and band together during a crises.  I have experienced it myself.  And the outpouring [...]

I’d Like To Introduce You To A New Member of The Family

April 13, 2009

I did something this weekend.  Something huge.  Something momentous.  Something mind blowing. I bought a MAC.

I Wish A Hidden Piece of Matzah Made Me This Happy

April 9, 2009

Michael, upon finding the Afikomen last night.  A Passover tradition in which you hide a piece of Matzah, the children find it, and you give them money.  My Dad gave him $5 and you would think it was $100.  Ah, to be four again. Happy Passover. And thank you all for the thoughtful comments on [...]

Why I Think Oprah Was Wrong

April 8, 2009

I confess, I watched the Oprah with all the Mommy bloggers.  I have no idea why.  I don't watch Oprah.  I take that back, I rarely watch Oprah.  I don't read Dooce, and I have never idea who the rest of them were.  And I've never seen a Momervasation.  But I got sucked in by [...]

Am I The Only Person Left On The Planet Not On Facebook?

April 7, 2009

Not a day goes by where someone does not ask me if I am on Facebook.  And it's not just people anymore, it's my son's preschool, my favorite consignment store, my gym.  "Become our fan on Facebook."  "I'm not on Facebook."  "Huh?"  "I'm not on Facebook"  "How is that possible?" I write for three blogs.  [...]

These Are The Things I Notice

April 6, 2009

I was driving by a McDonald's the other day and noticed a sign advertising Filet O' Fish.  Their fish sandwich is called a Filet o' Fish?  Really?  I spent my whole life calling it Filet of Fish.  Not that this comes up very much because we don't eat a lot of fast food.  Is this [...]
