Yeah, I said it. Black Friday. Whatcha gonna do about it? Heh. It's exactly one week until Thanksgiving. Which means in a week's time I will be quite immobile as my belly is overfilled with turkey, stuffing, mashed taters and more, as I try to roll myself onto the couch with beer in hand and Continue Reading

Sick of your kids tossing their dirty clothes on their floor? Or for that matter, your lazy husbands? (Yeah, for some reason guys have a lot of trouble actually getting their dirty clothes into the hamper. It's almost like trying to put two positive charges of a magnet together... they can come close but never Continue Reading

Back in High School I played the saxophone in our school marching band. We played halftime at a Jets game, but the one other awesome memory I have is when we all went on a trip to California as a group. I was a sophomore at the time and it was an amazing trip all Continue Reading

So in a never-ending quest to drive me completely insane, my arch-nemesis Jo just tagged me with the Eight Things About Eight Things meme. I can't seem to find the originator of this crazy 8-themed meme, so if anyone knows (or you happen to be reading this), please let me know and I'll link it Continue Reading

While the winner was chosen via a random drawing, we did end up getting some really great entries. So in the spirit of those Continue Reading

Tish from The Kat House has started an interesting meme. While she still hasn't named the thing, I'm calling it the Getting to Know Meme: Bloggers tend to be very honest, spilling their deepest thoughts into the blogosphere without a moment's hesitation. It is that openness that allows us to feel that we really know Continue Reading

The year was 1987. I was a sophomore in high school and was spending the majority of my time hanging out with the hottest girl I'd ever seen. She had moves that would bring even Superman to his knees. Long frizzy hair (it was the '80s remember). A seductive look in her eyes. And yet, Continue Reading

We had a great Halloween yesterday and the costumes were a big hit. Since our two kids are obssessed with all the Mario characters from the Nintendo video games (Particularly Mario Kart: Double Dash and Mario Party 8), we dressed them as Mario and Baby Mario (yes he's a real character too). I went as Continue Reading
