Just Like The Time I Ate A Bad Burrito, But Different

May 12, 2010

If you follow me on twitter you know that last week I ran into a bit of car trouble.  Any by a bit I mean I was tweeting things like "what the fuck who gets bad gas?" and "oh my g-d are you kidding me I have to buy a new car?" I can see [...]

More Ways In Which I Have Screwed Up My Child

May 11, 2010

When we were driving to the beach this weekend, Michael decided to list his chores for my mom: "Nanny, I have to set the table, and pick up my room, and pick up my playroom." "Do you have to do anything else Michael?" "I have to poop." I'm not sure when pooping became something he [...]

Why I am the Dorkiest Dork In all of Blogland

May 10, 2010

Sometimes I don't think you guys believe me when I talk about how dorky I am.  But here is a very good example. I was recently invited to a PR dinner with a bunch of other bloggers.  A blogger friend of mine invited me.  She also suggested I invite another blogger, someone who I am [...]

Shoe Friday #76 A Very Special Shoe Friday Part 2

May 7, 2010

Last year on the Friday before Mother's Day I posted my mom's shoes.  I'm doing it again.  Maybe I'll make it a tradition.  Or maybe I won't be blogging next Mother's Day.  Who knows? I'm off to the beach house for the weekend for Mother's Day and my 35th birthday.  I take that back.  I [...]

Evolution

May 6, 2010

I read somewhere, on a blog maybe (?), that once your child becomes 5 you can no longer consider yourself a mommyblogger.  Momblogger?  Parentblogger?  I can't keep up.  Anyway, I have noticed that my posts in the "random parentness" category are becoming less and less and I'm writing about other things.  Exercise, fashion, ME.  I [...]

Run Forrest Run

May 5, 2010

I work out, a lot.  Not a ridiculous excessive anorexia amount, but 3-4 times a week.  It used to be 4-5 times a week but MamaPop losers ended and I remembered I had a life. But lately I have gotten really exceptionally bored with my workouts.  And I look fine and whatever and I think [...]

When Did It Become Okay To Scold Stranger’s Children?

May 4, 2010

I was recently in a local bagel place when a child, who I believe had special needs, not that that makes a difference to this story, had a temper tantrum.  A full on temper tantrum.  On the floor, kicking and screaming, and wailing.  And a woman, a few tables over, SHUSHED THE CHILD.  The mother [...]

Of Whine and Roses

May 3, 2010

Doug and I celebrated my birthday this weekend.  It is actually next weekend, on Mother's Day to be precise, but he wanted to bifurcate the two (G-d I am such a lawyer.  Who uses bifurcate in a sentence unless it is a legal document?), and planed this amazing dinner out involving a chef's table at [...]
