I think the first day of school is a total waste. Half-day, nothing gets done, they send home a bunch of new forms for us to fill out which they could easily give out at another time…. AND there’s Walk-Through day, AND THEN there’s Expectation Night. I honestly think these events could be consolidated to some [...]

Don't be fooled by the "Angel" tshirt. These are the tools of Satan.
….should be renamed the Ninth Level of Hell.
And lest there be any doubt: there is a limit to my girlie factor. Wanna know how many times the birthday guests requested the song “You Belong With Me” by Taylor Swift? Answer: only slightly fewer times than they [...]

Actually, these are the exact two pets we have. I hate them both so much.
Do me a favor: the next time I say something like, “Let’s get the girls some Pillow Pets. You know those fur-covered pillows shaped like animals? They’ll love those, don’t you think? It can’t be that hard to keep them Velcroed into [...]

Top Ten Things I Love About Addie J on this day, her birthday:
10. She loves Kid Rock.
9. Sleeping is the only time she’s still… and even then, she sprawls everywhere. If I’m in the vicinity she kicks me in the face at least once.
8. When she sings along to Stone [...]

There are a lot of things that I never thought I would say as a parent; “Because I said so” probably topping the list. (Although: the day I call myself “Mom the Maid,” I have officially become my mother.) Cam had a slumber party last night for his birthday, so my sister Betsy called to [...]

Fun fact: this pic of my two boys was actually taken at the Gay Pride Parade, not long before Dave gave himself a black eye, trying to get a pic of the tranny Wonder Woman.
Nine years ago, at about 3:00 this morning– and five days past my due date– I was awakened by my [...]

This is my "struggling to remain coherent" face.
This photo was taken at some point on Saturday night, long past the point at which someone should have taken me home and put me to bed. (And to my soon-to-be sister-in-law, Erin: sorry I left your shower on Sunday immediately after the gift opening… but if you think [...]

So tomorrow is my birthday. This is why I’ll be found at the bar down the street at about 11pm tonight, weeping into a Jager bomb celebrating with my friends. And earlier today, the kids gave me birthday cards. Behold:
ADDIE J: [She did also create one of those drawings of a person with two misshapen crazy [...]
