Three Girls for Every Boy

March 22, 2010

We moved this month. It’s taken us three weeks and countless anxiety attacks — both mine and my son’s (Chili Jr. and Husband seem to be weathering just fine thankyouverymuch). This morning I took Max to the new bus stop and he was sullen and quiet and radiating anxiety — after all, he is my [...]

Too Much Sookie

August 16, 2009

Know how I know I’ve had too much TrueBlood?
I saw this headline: Mexico Replaces Customs Staff, Revamps Borders
And I considered what Bill & Eric would look like in uniform.

Pillow Talk

August 7, 2009

Husband and I have been married for 15 years. During those 15 years, we’ve tried to go to bed at the same time together. It allows us to discuss our day, laugh, and just connect. Sometimes we just touch feet and roll over to our sides and sleep.
On one of those touch feet and roll [...]

Chik-Fil-A How I Love Thee (And Funny Things Chili Jr. Says)

April 20, 2009

When it’s just me and Chili Jr., we like to indulge ourselves with a little Chik-Fil-A. This year we are particularly happy because there is a little boy in Chili Jr.’s class whose dad owns a CFA franchise. Guess what we get for Christmas and Valentine’s? Yeah, baby. Jackpot.
Last night, Chili Jr. and I were [...]

It’s April and Time to Shave My Legs

April 13, 2009

This post was originally published on April 8, 2008.
It’s finally warm on a consistent basis here in my neck of the woods. Rainy, yes, but warm.
Which means I can move from jeans to capri pants and skirts.
Which in turn means it’s time for me to shave.
You see, around the end of September–or sooner if I [...]

I am a LOLcat

August 19, 2008

Emily just sent this LOLcat to me because it reminded her of me.
She once pinched my butt and I almost took her down. However, in the last split second before I went all Medieval on her, I remembered she was the boss’s wife and simply gave her "the Look". She talks about it to [...]

This Is My Life

July 16, 2008

I’m feeling much better today. Amazing what just talking to your husband can do for your perspective. Husband has always been my center and he just calms me.
Tonight I was packing and finishing up a few loose ends–including rolling my hair for a special ‘do I like. Then I realized I couldn’t find the [...]

Mothers Say the Darndest Things

June 30, 2008

Eleven years ago, Phantom of the Opera came to our city for the first time. It was a HUGE deal. Tickets were hard to come by and everyone who was anyone or no one (like us) would witness the spectacle at some point. And the outfits! Sequins and gowns, people.
I was able to score [...]
