Guess who kept his mother up all night with a fever that refused to break? This guy. Feel better George, and thanks for not barfing on me.

Product placement – literally!
So those of us who tend toward the thrifty side are well acquainted with the “store brand.” Back in the day, these would have just been referred to as “generics.” I remember the Franks Grocery Store — the very one where my older than Dirt sister and her even older husband met back when the [...]

It’s the bee’s knees
So just a short while ago I asked for warmer weather to get here and to get here soon. Then I went upstairs, where I was greeted with this: Not quite what I meant, Mother Nature. That guy looks mean and angry as hell to be awake on March 3. I think this is what [...]

The other birthday girl
Remember earlier when I said “it’s all about me!” Seriously, it was the title of the next post, scroll down if you missed it. Jeesh. Anyway, it appears I have been upstaged. Well, hey there baby girl! This is Aurora Sophia Love, and she entered this world this afternoon, naked and screaming. Which is also [...]

It’s all about me!
Today is January 4. So, in case you are living in a hole and somehow forgot, that means…. IT IS MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Save the Earth? Bah, humbug!
Because I have an affection for all things political, especially politically scandalous, I throughly enjoyed the movie Frost/Nixon. And one of the best lines out of the movie, in my opinion, came at the end, where it is noted that one of Nixon’s biggest legacies is having the suffix “-gate” attached to any scandal. It’s so very very true. My very [...]

Karma
Keeping with my juvenile theme, I am beginning to wonder two things: 1) How is it that I managed to find a husband who is such a good fit for me, and 2) When are we going to hell, because we are so going there. Tonight I went to the gym for a little weight [...]

Mars vs. Venus
Yesterday I was watching a little of my favorite 24-hour pretty much lefty but hey, at least they don’t claim to be “fair and balanced” news outlet, MSNBC. I like this station. I like their commentators. I like that they lean my way. I loves me some Contessa Brewer. And frankly, Mika Brzezinski is starting [...]

Channeling my father – Part 2
I forgot some important ones: When I feel my child is not being all together truthful, I tell him to stick out his tongue. I then announce, ”It’s black, you’re lying!” The child will then rush to the mirror to see, but I explain that only I can see it and/or it disappears quickly. When my children hurt themselves through [...]

Channeling my father
There’s another person taking over my body these days. And his name is Dad. Today was pretty nice, so George was outside playing with the 3-year-old twins from next door, Cira and Christian. Cira and Christian are, for lack of a better way of saying it, monsters. Now, I don’t know if they are just [...]
