No, I did not get up between midnight and 5 a.m. to try to witness the Leonid meteor shower last night. But I can’t help wondering if I’m being affected by it anyway! Because this has been a weird, weird week.
Our house has been burgled TWICE in less than a week. It happened Thursday, then [...]

Today at the mall, Max and I got in the elevator. He loves elevators, and he was hopping around squealing and flapping his arms. He was completely adorable, and at that moment, utterly, obviously autistic.
This very yuppie looking couple got in with us. She was pregnant, and they already had a little baby in a [...]

WHAT is wrong with my damn feet???
Okay, sorry. But seriously, this is getting out of control. None of my shoes are comfortable anymore. I’m getting blisters in all kinds of places. My little toe on my left foot is like - I don’t know what the deal is! Is it turning into some kind of [...]

I feel the need for speed.
I’m SO frustrated with falling asleep at 9:30 every night.
I don’t WANT to fall asleep at 9:30. It’s the last thing I want. Max usually goes to sleep around 9, and I desperately want that adult time. Either to do unglamorous tasks like take the garbage out or do the [...]

1) Max lost his fourth tooth yesterday.
2) I got another ongoing writing assignment I applied for, Phoenix TV Examiner.
3) I finally learned how to make homemade macaroni and cheese that doesn’t suck.
Let’s start with the last one first. I must once again thank Amanda Hesser, for I used her recipe. It’s not that hard. I [...]

Well, it’s Saturday morning. Conrad’s taken Max for an outing, and I stayed home to clean our wretched house.
I’m poised to dig in but am of course procrastinating a bit first.
In looking for music to put on while I clean, I saw that there’s an all-Christmas music channel now. YAY! I do believe I’m ready [...]

Max is home sick today. :( Doesn’t seem too bad, though, but he did have a fever and was up much of the night. I’ve been up since 4!
At work now but I’ll probably head home this afternoon to help spell Conrad.
I’m royally pissed because I just FINALLY got a chance to write a new [...]

My New Friend, Wally
I recently made it so that Facebook imports all my blog entries onto my Notes section. I don’t know if this was a smart idea. I mean, yes, currently any of my friends can look at my blog if they wanted to, but very few usually do.
Oh, hell, like anything that unique [...]

I think I know why I love horror movies so much.
Because life IS a horror movie.
Just when you think everything just might be ok, you realize that short lady with the funny voice did not, in fact, exorcise the demon from your home. No, it never left.
And who’s the idiot? Why, you are, of course!
“Why [...]

Okay, so, fall feels a lot like spring. As the season changes, we head toward the end of this year, looking ahead at the beginning of the next - I find we’re inclined to do some spring cleaning.
However, direction is still a problem.
We’re not happy with Conrad being in private practice. It’s not that he’s [...]
