Yesterday started out with something malfunctioning with G’s alarm, causing him to miss davening. Recall that it was a fast day, and he’s the rabbi. Not good. No one was coming after him with a pink slip or anything, but he was quite disturbed on a number of levels. Oops.
As for me, I started out [...]
Don’t miss my heartburn poem, posted earlier today. It’s deeply inspiring. Really.
RS had her ballet recital last week. We got there 45 minutes early, just like I promised her we would. Of course the second we got there, she was all “What am I going to do for all this time?” I almost slugged her. [...]
The spider disappeared that night but was back tracing circles above my head the next morning. And I picked up a shoe and stood on my bed, and I killed it MYSELF. Babysitter Allison pretended to be very proud of me.
Want to see something hilarious? Look at the picture in this article, and [...]

This is the post I promised you, the really really long post that I added to on and off while my computer wasn’t working. Prepare to become educated on the subjects of my minivan, my often-flooding basement, and other sundry things. And if for some reason you missed it, I’ve posted THREE times already this [...]
Today’s horoscope:
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). A prideful person you know may be making a mistake. Others are inclined to tear this person down emotionally. Make a sacred intention that you will be the kind of person who supports others when they need it.

[Update: Dudes, I don't know why none of you can see the graphic. I can see it perfectly, on ALL my computers (all two of them). It's a bunch of yellow smiley faces holding hands and dancing in a circle. Heeheehee ]
[Update #2, ok I think I fixed it, can you see it now?]
So [...]
Though not necessarily in that order.
Yesterday I did quite a bit of work for Client #1 (the paying one). I’m doing a great job, of course, except I’m having sort of a hard time. Emotionally, I mean. This is because my job is to proofread and copyedit, and to do only very light actual editing, [...]
So I just finally read Dave Barry’s Year in Review, and while parts of it weren’t so funny, parts of it were freakin’ hilarious, and I do feel mighty uplifted after all that laughing. The North Korea threat and especially the Iran threat aren’t so funny, but he still managed to make me smile with [...]
Nice, no?
What makes this even nicer/cuter/sweeter is that G is color blind, and as such can’t even fully appreciate such things, but he thought this sunset looked “unusual,” so he snapped the picture and sent it to me just in case. “Is it a good one?” he asked when I told him I got it. [...]
