A Polarizing Question (No, really…I’m serious!)
Have you heard that Cookie Monster’s made an audition tape to be a host on SNL? (Yeah, I know that’s a picture of Animal. I like him better.) It was a hot topic in the newsroom…which turned into a heated discussion. … Continue reading
Shake, shake, shake…shake your Shake Weight!
So…I guess my love for the Shake Weight has made me something of an expert in the eyes of my co-workers. About 6 months ago, I agreed to be a guinea pig for an “As Seen On TV” segment that … Continue reading
Sweet!
It’s no secret that I love to torture my 10-year-old with some of my music. So today I broke out the 70’s Glam Rock. Yes, I don’t mind admitting that I have The Sweet’s Greatest Hits CD in my car. Say what you … Continue reading

Oh. My. God! I took my kid to see Megamind yesterday (Sunday) afternoon and now I’m so far in debt it isn’t even funny. First off: total disclosure…I’m cheap. I can squeeze a dime out of a nickel. But can someone … Continue reading
They say it’s the first thing to go…
So I get my mail this morning and what do I find? A notice from the utilities company that my water will be turned off if my bill isn’t paid in full by November 8th. Needless to say, there are … Continue reading
Stay Golden…
I watch a lot of Golden Girls. It started way back in 2000 when I was a stay-at-home mom in Cleveland. I had Megan in December so there wasn’t a whole lot of “going outside in the winter” then. USA … Continue reading
