THREE different people have asked me in the last week when I’m going to update my blog. I told them “never, because I’m sick of hearing myself complain,” and ALL THREE of them said that they are not sick of hearing me complain. Since three people amounts to approximately 25% of my readership, I figured [...]
Yes, I am posting two days in a row. Hold on to your heartbeats.
Before I forget (again), here is an excellent story about my son, which I intended to share in last night’s post.
So there we were at the glasses store, and the girls had chosen theirs, and the Boy had broken his, and we [...]

Want to know what never, ever stops going through my head? This:
Hope that works. If it didn’t, here’s the link, so it can go through your head as well. My son is ADDICTED to this video. Addicted. He will sit and watch, and has sat and watched, for an hour or more. Bear in mind [...]

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 [...]
I found the Boy’s sandals! Didn’t even have to do the גורל הגר”א. Two friends to whom I was miserably complaining over the last 1+ weeks about how I couldn’t find them had suggested I check the hamper in the living room, because, as you of course already know, the Boy spent two Friday nights [...]
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. [...]
My son, who has been behaving like a holy terror this evening, grabbed my belly with one hand about an hour ago and shouted “Ball!” Heeheehee. I told him that (contrary to appearances) there was no ball and it was my belly, and he accepted that, and then proceeded to yank his shirt [...]
This is my dumb random update of random things, because yesterday and so far today I have felt too sick to study. Not too sick to watch SVU, however. I’ve never seen Stabler cry before.
I’m not getting a Droid phone after all. What I’m getting is this other kind of phone, which [...]
I didn’t go to the parade. Last year, not being pregnant or anything, I went to the parade; today I didn’t go to the parade, though G and the kids did. I made the right decision, but I’m sad. Anyway, they had a good time, and thank heavens the Boy didn’t go berserk [...]
ATTENTION FRIENDLY HOME HEALTH AID LADY (who my son greeted by shouting “Hi lady!” when she came through the door) WHO HAS COME TO HELP TAKE CARE OF MY FATHER. WE ARE NOT CHRISTIANS. WE ARE JEWS. WE HAVE STATED SO EXPLICITLY NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE YOU ARRIVED HERE FOUR HOURS AGO. ERGO KINDLY CEASE AND [...]
