Optical illusion: Which way is the lady dancing?\ I naturally see her moving to the left, while Kevin and Max see her moving to the right. I can get her to switch though, so I must be extra special, right? Article explains the difference.\ Somebody please explain how her outstretched leg switches depending on which […]
I need some time alone, in my house. Alone, alone, alone. I can’t clean with people around me and yet, there is always someone around me. I can’t wait for Brian to go to preschool. Please, AOL preschool, make room for Brian soon, ok?\ In other news- no more dead fish! We have three whole […]
Yesterday after Max’s therapy appointment, he told me about a questions board game that he and the doctor played. One of the questions was, “If your walls could talk, what would they say about your family?” Max’s answer: We are a silly family. That is probably the best thing he could have said. It really […]
Even though I keep killing off our fish and another one looks to have one fin in the toilet, I tried to get Kevin to buy a bigger fish tank this weekend. He said no. No! To me. His loving and devoted wife. Boo. The tank we have now is angled in the front, like […]
Fish #2 bit the dust. Sad.

Check it out, yos: iTunes has the Supernatural season premiere available now for free. Yippeee! Time to crank up the classic rock and settle in for some ass-kickin’ hunters. Or you can settle in on Thursdays (tonight) at 9pm on The CW.
Today is Max’s 8th birthday. Hooray! Wheeee. Yipppeeee.\ As a parent, I am done. DONE. He is a formed little being now. The parenting books say so.\ It feels really great to have accomplished this “parenting gig”. What have I been complaining about all of these years? It was a snap.
Yesterday, Max named the one gold goldfish we have Dart and the two new tiny ones Beta and Gamma. We also have two silver goldfish, but they don’t have names yet.\ One of the new tiny fish died today. Less than 24 hours after coming into our home. Sniff. Earlier, Brian was telling the fish […]
I am honestly confused by an article I read this morning: US Sailor: Don’t deport my wife. I thought that people married to US citizens got to stay in the US regardless of their status, unless something else was going on (fake marriage, criminal from elsewhere). So, what’s up with the possibility that this woman, […]
