Whose bright idea was it for me to not take my sleeping pill last night? Mine, of course. Because I was feeling like a wild little rebel, and I wanted to do something totally crazy, such as clean the kitchen and get my house in order on a motzaei Shabbat, and come down to a [...]
(That’s for you, Mr. Pell Grant Women’s Day)
Here’s the YouTube I promised you, Uncle J. And for those of you who are not my uncle (lucky!), this video has nothing to do with my uncle, but it is darn hilarious, and you should totally watch it. It was a Purim spoof. An AWESOME Purim spoof. [...]
Let’s say there’s a 14 month-old baby whose parents have just discovered that he has a fever. Which reaction would you expect?
“Oh, my poor little baby!”
“He has a FEVER!! Thank GOD!!”
Yeah.
Because we’re hoping – hoping – that the fever might, just might, explain his psycho-monster behavior over the past – um – year? [...]
Look at this. It’s getting worse.
That’s YS, of course. You know, the one who already knows more about the Dead Sea Scrolls than her erstwhile graduate student mother? Graduate student, like, in the Dead Sea Scrolls. (Ok, she doesn’t know more about them than I do. Yet.)

Also, is it bad manners to correct my client’s spelling?
See, here’s what happened. I told my current writing gig that I need more money in order to make it worth all the time it takes my [...]
Or for the weak-stomached, for that matter.

My poor Boy. My poor, poor, baby Boy. It’s some sort of Big Bad Stomach Thing, and I’m assuming it’s the same Thing YS had over the weekend and R had last week, except the Boy has it a lot worse. The thing is, I thought he had it [...]
So I have 256 comments waiting in the spam queue. 256. That’s a lot of comments. They seem to all come from different IP addresses, or I’d see about banning them. But I have to hand it to the authors of these comments. It has to take a lot of dedication, not to mention creativity, [...]
Shabbos was the annual Sisterhood Mother’s Day kiddush, and sort-of-annual female guest speaker that we try to have on Mother’s Day in sort-of conjunction with a national program run through another organization, a program that celebrates women’s achievements in Torah learning.
