 You guys will never believe this. I’m thinking of changing these posts. Yes, I know there’s only been four of them. Yes, I know I just changed the Friday Favorites over to them because I was sick of the Friday Favorites, but guess what? I kind of miss the Friday Favorites. But then I remembered […]

 ARE YA’LL READY FOR THIS?? It’s game time, fellow superfans. The long off-season is over and it’s time for kickoff! For the next five months we’ll be predicting, wagering, diagraming, cheering, groaning, and drinking as we watch our favorites win and lose. That’s right, folks, it’s the best time of the year: Awards show season. Kicking […]
Yesterday I upgraded my phone to iOS 10. I spent a full hour playing with the new features in iMessages alone. I sent gif images, stickers, bursts of confetti, and floaty balloons to the family text group for so long that two of them went dark on me. Apparently if you have a real job […]  (Because I’m sure you’ve been waiting all summer to find out.) Apologies for the slightly narcissistic tone of that post title (but I mean, c’mon, it’s a blog) but you guys, I love this time of year.Those of you who’ve been following along for awhile know I’m not talking about pumpkin spice creamer and pumpkin spice […]
 For the past four years I’ve reposted this story on 9/11. Why? Because we all have our stories from that horrific day, and try as we might, we can’t make them change. 15 years ago at this time I was trying desperately to get another hour of sleep. My 4 month old had had a fussy […]  Dear daughters, Today you both start another year of school. For the third year in a row it will be in separate states, and for the 15th year in a row I’ll spend the day trying not to drink my feelings be overwhelmed with feelings that, if allowed, will engulf me. Feelings that surprisingly (or […] One week in to the overhauled, new and yet-to-be-determined-if-improved Friday Favorites and I’m already living up to my prediction that they might not always make it up by Friday. Go easy on me, ya’ll. I’ve had a rough week. It was take-your-daughter-back-to-college week, or as I’ve come to know it as, three to seven days […]  Random thing to know about me #287: Recently I’ve had to start using a magnifying mirror — one the size of a paper plate that is suctioned cupped to my regular bathroom mirror which no longer works — to be able to do things like put on eyeliner and actually SEE MY FACE … and when […] “Pictures or it didn’t happen.” It’s not just how much of America’s youth — which is how I now describe the under-40 set — lives life these days, but also pretty much become our motto around here over the past few years. I’m not kidding, I take pictures of everything. My food, my cats, my […]  Great news, O fellow fans of guilty pleasure shows chock full of girls with identical hairstyles and tear-streaked faces who’re hoping to live out their unattainable dreams in front of a cameraman who’s currently shooting his own, I’ve got a show for us to dish over for the next couple of months. And while it doesn’t have roses […] |
