The Maker and I were having lunch together and I was telling him this fairly long, drawn-out story about how his father and I are so different. He was utterly still and listening to my every word. I explained how I was the bubbly social one and his dad was the reserved, quiet one (rock [...]

Not too long ago this weird little creature started showing up in his freaky poses all over my kitchen. One day he was resting in peace on a carefully folded tissue pallet in the windowsill; another day he and his death-defying grin suddenly appeared on the chair in the study. He has a nice heft [...]

Your assignment: locate, acquire, and give me a whole box of these marvelous inventions. What could be better, I ask you? I mean, other than Wack-O-Wax mustaches? Image by cdevers on Flickr

I knew you would enjoy this, violent people that you are. If only the purple one showed up better: it looks like if you enter without caution you could get a bloody lip. Like, a serious bloody lip, with enough blood to satisfy a whole pack of vampires. Of course, they say head wounds bleed [...]

During the Christmas holidays during the year the First was four, our electricity had been out for a good part of the week due to a freak NC snowstorm.

Best Christmas Video EVER

December 4, 2009

This is so me, without the New York Jewish mother bit. Or the red hair and five o’clock shadow. And those outfits, yikes! But, you know, it’s me. I LOVE the tree! I don’t love the mess or the work but I love to have and see and enjoy the tree. And it really does [...]

The First: It’s the middle of December and it’s dead warm. Me: It’s mad dead warm. The Husband: It’s mad dead G* warm. Me: It’s mad dead G beast crazy sick warm. (prolonged stunned silence) Me: Go on with my bad self! The First: Don’t ever. Do that again. *for the uninitiated, “G” is short [...]
