For the better portion of my life, I’ve genuinely believed that people who even THOUGHT about ironing their sheets were either plagued with a version of OCD that I hoped I would never get or so rich that they could afford to have a league of servants to perform any task they could imagine – [...]
The Astronaut Farmer: Despite the feel-goody entertainment (yes, it WAS entertaining), the movie was actually pretty hard-core on the cheese. Also, don’t go expecting a whole lot of accuracy – there were so many times I was thinking “OMG! That sooo wouldn’t happen like that!!!!” that I lost count. Just enjoy the mindless entertainment and [...]
As I said yesterday, once it was posted on YouTube, I’d post it here… So, here you go – a woman claiming that Barack Obama is not black and trying to act like an intellectual.* * EDIT: YouTube took it off the site. Grrr… if you didn’t see it, the only thing I can suggest [...]
I got back a few days ago and just getting back into my groove… so updates may very well be kind of scarce for a few days. In the mean time, I just have to pipe in about something I saw on the Colbert Report last night*. Barack Obama is black** – ok? I don’t [...]
Today was D’s 16th birfcake – and OMG!!! HE IS 16!!!! This means I’m insanely OLD!!! AND why is this kid so sprouty and growing gumoungously taller than me every second!?!?!?! It was like being in a land of giants with him. YIKES! For the day, we did manage to go to the California Science [...]
TPO and I spent Tuesday at the Wild Animal Park with B and D – it’s getting scary seeing him because he’s now turning 16 (WTF?!?!! SIXTEEN?!!?!?!?!?) and he’s ginormously tall (just a few inches shorter than TPO). Soooooo NOT RIGHT! Pics of the WAP are up on flickr – got some good ones of [...]
Spent the day at the San Diego Zoo – the pics are here thanks to the free wi-fi in our hotel room. HAWESOME! Also, yesterday, I posted a link to yesterday’s flickr pics, but accidentally directed it toward the California Science Center’s Star Wars exhibit. My bad. The link has been fixed, but if you’re [...]
Went to the LA County Museum of Art and the Page Museum (aka, the La Brea Tar Pits) today. TPO had a good time, which is AWESOME because he didn’t seem overly jazzed about even going in the first place. Threw some pics up on flickr if you’re interested – I tried being as good [...]
He UNDERSTANDS why Rachael Ray and Sandra Lee are evil! Yes, while at theMommy’s house, we read many food blogs. And very happy*. *This joke will only make sense to one person. I know this. She knows this. All is right with world.
Although, technically, I’m already in Cali… All I have to say is :::cough cough wheeeeze hack hack cough ughhhhhh cough::: there’s a fair bit of smog in the air that’s making my throat kinda hurt. I didn’t realize how quickly a little bit of clean air would turn me into such a wimp. I got [...]
