Do you remember back in the day when you were trying to get pregnant, and it wasn’t happening very quickly, and everyone you knew was getting pregnant, and you were sad and frustrated and felt like stabbing every single person who asked “So when are you going to have a baby?” or who carefully examined […]
Yes, John Cusack too.
November 21, 2011 by
Okay, okay. I wrote my last post and then had an avalanche of people ask me WHY John Cusack wasn’t included. Even my husband – my husband! – read the post and asked why John Cusack wasn’t on the list. Here’s the truth: I forgot about poor John Cusack. Poor Lloyd Dobler. I blame the […]
Nicole’s 10 Sexiest Men Alive List, or the post where I shamelessly objectify males
November 19, 2011 by
The book fair is finished now, much to my relief. By the end of it I pretty much hated children, a sentiment not unlike the one I used to get when I waitressed in university and would, after working a certain number of shifts in a row, hate the entire human race. By the end […]

Many, many years ago, before my mother-in-law discovered email and all the associated animated emoticons that could be utilized therein, she used to send me actual written letters, usually accompanied by a piece of knitting she had been doing – the knitted dishclothes I prefer, for example. In one such letter she had written all […]
