1. Playing the DJ.
    I put this on twitter the other day, and to date, I have 4, 785 tweets (holy mother of god. seriously?) and this one statement right here, well, it has gotten more response than anything else I have ever brought to the twitter table. I’m not even kidding. It’s a good thing I had already [...]

  3. Two Girls, One Canoe and the Mind Behind Them.
    Back in the early days when I was a budding entertainment news writer over at Juice, some DVDs were sent my way for review. After being pleasantly surprised by season one of the best show I had never heard of, I wrote my review of Rent-A-Goalie. What came after was not only a (surprising!) thank [...]

  4. The Land of the Cheese and the Home of the Kohl’s.
    I am fairly certain one of the four of us was going to get kidnapped at Target today. And I’m pretty sure that someone was yours truly, because, well, my children had lots of energy to spare post-camp and don’t really understand the concept of an inside voice and honestly, rowdy children don’t make very [...]

  5. Just PLEASE…no Jodi Picoult, mmmkay?
    In the airport yesterday, I stopped for a coffee and a doughnut and sat down with my new Kobo and dug myself deep into Moby Dick. (Wow. That sounds dirtier than I’d originally intended…) You see, it’s one of my blind spots and I am determined to  cross at least some of them off, and not only because [...]

  7. GOOD THINGS.
    Well, this past weekend was chock-full of all sorts of good things. And not really just good things. The kind of GOOD THINGS that need to be written in all-caps and that make your knees wobble just a little bit. And I’m going to ignore the fact that all three of my kids are home [...]

  8. The Tits: December Edition
    Since it’s been all whine mixed with kvetch around here lately, blah blah blah my children are monsters who ruined my house, I figured I would finally get to the tits list I promised… ALSO, since many of you asked about the TITS. It originated here, when I stole it from the lovely FADKOG. and [...]

  9. A Fictional Five…or Something Like It…
    When I take the heavy nighttime drugs, my dreams tend to look something like a Yo Gabba Gabba/Death to Smoochy hybrid, where weird things happen like Donny Osmond and I are in monkey suits and then all of his teeth fall out and while I try to catch them, giant hot pink planes start dropping [...]

  10. I steal things from hot women. part deux.
    I’m going to ignore the fact that before walking into my building this morning, a large gust of wind blew my skirt OVER MY HEAD for many an unsuspecting co-worker to see. smooth. I’m going to ignore the fact that my carpool schedule changed on me and has totally screwed up my entire week and [...]

  12. i steal things from hot women.
    oh yes. i do. one of my internet girlfriends, FADKOG, left a list on her site yesterday of the things that she thinks are the tits. and she also left a little disclaimer on her site explaining that ‘things that she thinks are the tits’ actually means things that she thinks are cool and/or totally [...]
