I typically like to show the lovely, wonderful, idealistic views of my city. (Such as today at my other blog, you can look at pretty pictures of our stunning local food scene.) And I’d say that most of the time I succeed – many of my readers have told me that they had no idea […]
Blog Roll
If You Give a Blogger a Baby.
A guest soliloquy, by Noah. If you are born to a blogger, chances are, she’ll be a total techy geek. If she is a total techy geek, then she’s likely to encourage her children to be total techy geeks as well. If she encourages her children to be techy geeks, then your older sister will […]
Continuity Inanity.
I’m a Continuity Tyrant. Let’s say that I happen to be watching a movie. I’m totally enraptured in the plot, the drama, the angst. Two characters – a man and a woman – are having an intense dialogue – you know, the type that explains the whole movie and makes everything come together in an […]
When Delightfully Abnormal Goes Awry.
I don’t know how you Moms with regular kids do it. And I don’t know how I’m going to do it, since I am certain that I will most definitely be awarded with my second kid being quite regular. Or perhaps even extra-regular. With regards to the frequency of pee. My kid is a camel, […]
The Secret of Halal
Our trip to New York last week was was Chris’ first visit, so he got to experience the full unexplainable magic of the city, and he also had a few adventures along the way. This post is one of his fabulous guest posts (written the night before we left), so be sure to give him […]
BlogHer, in Bad Photos.
Five Benefits of Taking My Husband Along to BlogHer. 1. His analytical and strategic skills make me look like a novice. He had a plan, he knew what he was doing, and he would set up fabulous opportunities to show off our professionalism and class. 2. As the last photo also attests, he is willing […]
A New Level of Whelm.
At this point every year, I typically have a well-thought out, hopefully entertaining blog post about my (mis)adventures at BlogHer. I really don’t know how, but I somehow manage to get it typed out despite woefully minimal levels of sleep and the smothering deluge of BlogHer information spinning around in my head. But this year…I […]
She Left Me.
Hi there! Noah here. Hold on a minute. Let me get my camera adjusted right. Okay. That’s better. So I have some really sad news. The Servant Who Calls Herself Mommy left me. And even worse than that?? She Took The Daddy with her. It’s really a bummer, because I’ve really gotten to where I […]
On Taxing the Colonists.
I offer many public services to my children. If you get down to it, we’re basically a communist nation around here. They do what I tell them to do, and then I choose what to pay them. I provide the food, the transportation, the rules, the housing, and even the clothing. (Although I at times […]
Chick Cars: The Report.
Last week, I conducted a survey on the crucial subject of Chick Cars. Between blog comments, Facebook, Twitter, and in-person interviews, I collected vast amounts of data on this subject. In sorting out this influx of information, I determined to do more than simply look at the numbers. Because I have a heart for the […]
