I got home at 8:00 last night from a weekend at the in-laws’, home to a mountain of laundry, an empty refrigerator, and the need to detox and/or go on a cleanse. My poor body. That is all I am going to say about that. This morning I reluctantly went to the grocery store, extremely dissatisfied with […]
I’m so excited! And I just can’t hide it! I’m about to lose control and I think I like it!
December 2, 2011 by
I’m a whirling dervish of excitedness today because it’s my husband’s work party tonight! Squee! I have a new dress and everything. I know a lot of people hate going to their spouse’s – or their own – work parties because, yawn, boring. And don’t get me wrong, I’m sure this party will also be […]
New Haircut (Regrets, I’ve had a few)
October 3, 2011 by
Friday night I had some girlfriends over to watch The Breakfast Club and eat that dinner beloved by women everywhere: the dinner made up of appetizers.

Happy coincidence? Related: I have been sleeping uninterrupted through the night. Not once have […]
Melancholy thoughts about back to school and the transformative power of a new pair of panties.
August 16, 2011 by
Two years ago, when Mark was starting kindergarten, I wrote this. One year ago, when Jake was starting kindergarten, I wrote this. I find the differences in the pieces to be very amusing – in the first one I’m all “Buy some new panties! Drink some wine!” while the second one is “My baby birds are […]

It has been a busy few days in the Boy House. Last Thursday I found myself at the hair therapist’s without a book, and so I picked up People magazine to learn all about Bachelor Brad’s breakup with Emily.
