I have wanted one of these Flip Videos for some time. Today, I threw caution to the wind (and a handful of feathers so now my pillow will be flatter when I go to bed tonight) and wrote this. I’m only halfway expecting a response from the people at Flip Video Central.If it works, it [...]
You’ve been waiting to hear who won my awesome prize pack, haven’t you? Some of you have clicked here several times today and some have just outright emailed me to stop torturing you. Aren’t you cute? Also, are you medicated? Just a question buzzing around in my mind. I didn’t intentionally make you wait. It’s [...]
You know you’re back into the swing of things at work when you’ve neglected to write on your blog. Your blog that’s been so good to you. Given you back rubs when you need it, told you that your eyes looked pretty, bought you pretty trinkets and such. What? Don’t your blogs do that for [...]
I have spent much of today getting some writing done for three publications other than this place. Anyone who’s ever written for someone other than themselves knows this is a feat done best in the cliche cafe while wearing a beret and smoking French cigarettes. Mostly, though, I just listened to my iPod (which is [...]
As dispassionate scribblings dictate, it’s time for some links. And some answers. 1. Belinda erroneously believes that the Black character in an ensemble cast always dies. Not true. Smoking Aces left my boyfriend Common alive as well as Alicia Keys. So there. 2. I’m sad. I got this fabulous invitation to be flown to San [...]

Most people spend the Labor Day weekend grilling food, swimming one last time before the neighborhood pool closes, and soaking up some sun. I spent it with a gooey substance dripping from my eyeball, sleeping after taking Benadryl, and taking my boys to the Abraham Lincoln Library for a lesson in the consequences of hatred. [...]
One of the things we’re committed to doing for our very active children is to give them: 1. Plenty of exercise (“Damnit. Go run a lap around the cul-de-sac before I sit on your head.”) 2. Lots of water (“No, you cannot have pop for breakfast. Are you crazy? Pppfffttt. WhatEVER. No!“) 3. Daily vitamins [...]
My junior high offered a typing class which I took even though my mother taught me the proper way to type much earlier so she could enlist me in some free child labor for the printing business she had when I was a kid. Somehow she was safe from laws against it and didn’t get [...]
When I think I’m getting too big for my britches and that I’m all that and a bag of chips (my personal bag o’ chips would be the Sesame Garlic Herb Tortilla Chips from Harry & David if you’re wondering – I’m tasty, good with dip, and easy entertaining at it’s best. How many women [...]
