Now consider. Just for a moment. I blog, I tweet, I’m on Facebook. I work in an industry that likes to think it’s more high tech than it is, in a city that IS more high tech than it should be, thanks to some guys called Bill and Paul. I keep [...]

Well, now here’s an odd position to be in. (Nothing to do with Downward Dog or a Cat Stretch).
I’ve been beatching for months about not having time to write my Fabulous book (Called “Death at First Sight”) for anyone who cares. I have a job, a family, two dogs, two cats, a goldfish, two [...]

6am: Anyone seen the spare pair of bitches britches?
8am: Call in comatose to work. At least “comatose” isn’t “suicidally panicked”. On the other hand, comatose isn’t really a lifestyle either. Definitely need meds adjusted.
10am: Contemplate doing laundry
11am: Write totally off the wall blog. Avoided Alice in Wonderland references.
12pm: Nappy time
3pm: Ugh. Brush teeth.
4pm: Do laundry. [...]

You know that exercise wherein you think of everyone throughout history and pick a list of just whom you’d invite to dinner if you could? I’ve been thinking a lot about that lately. Mostly I worry about what the hell I’d serve for hors d’oeuvres. And how we’d serve dinner since there’s a treadmill where [...]

Must write something. Must write something. Must write something. No brain waves. Brain is tired. Brain is burned out on the new drugs. Now I no longer panic, I sit in a catatonic lump unable to motivate beyond the couch and the “What Not To Wear” re-runs. Oh [...]

As you know, Nike attended a fun-filled day at work with me yesterday. Due to her current, er, condition, Tara remained home in a crate. Nick gets home from school around 2ish, and about 2:05 my phone rang.
Now remember, I work in cubie-land. Everyone around me for about a 30 mile radius can hear my [...]

Today I must venture from the house and make my way to work. I was feeling pretty good until the reality of that adventure actually hit home. So I made my way to my favorite work of literature, the one that understands me. Today’s blog isn’t about you, dear Readers, it’s going [...]

I’m home today, trying to get my act back together, take it easy, regroup on the how to get out of the rabbit hole. I feel pretty good. Meds are kickin’ in. Life is relatively easy.
Except there’s blood on my bed. WTF? Can’t be me, I had those bits removed. [...]

Clinique, Estee, MAC, Bobbi Brown, and Max Factor have all failed women miserably with one simple design flaw. There is no brand of mascara on this earth that will Stay Put when a man, particularly your doctor, renders you to tears. With the first prickling of moisture under the lower lids, a dam is opened [...]

News:My first question about the inauguration festivities? Where they gonna put all those sani-cans? Does Barack & Co. have a special port-a-potty, or do they get a real bathroom? Inquiring minds want to know.
Weather:Y’all in New England can keep your damn snow. Been there, done that, no thanks.
Sports:Rob’s poor Eagles. [...]
