I know… not usually sound advice.  But apparently in the case of my frozen shoulder, it is. I’ve been dealing with increasing shoulder pain and decreasing shoulder mobility since G was born.  For a while I chalked it up to stiffness from holding G in my left arm so often. Eventually when it started to […]

Yesterday evening we took down our Christmas tree.  I wasn’t ready.  I’m STILL not ready.  I go downstairs to the living room and I’m stunned each time by the now yawning cavernous space by the front windows.  I don’t really understand how Christmas went by so quickly this year.  I know I’m getting older and […]

In that this is a post about nothing.  And probably not even in a funny way, but whatevs. —— A few days ago at work, I got an email from someone notifying me that a meeting was canceled.  This is a direct quote: “We apologize for the incontinence and will be rescheduling the call…” Teehee. […]

Yes. I am thankful for my liver. My liver, and BEER. Last night we and a frouple who lives a few houses down from us finally managed to get our schedules aligned and made it out to dinner together (we’ve been attempting to make this happen for about 6 months now). Luckily, grandparents were available […]

Ok, not really recriminations, I just dig alliteration, and I happen to like that word. “Retractions” perhaps? Yes, that would probably be the better word. Yesterday I accidentally fatfingered a twitter re-tweet. For those of you who don’t know, a “re-tweet” is when you quote another person’s tweet to your own followers, usually adding some […]

This makes twice today that I read someone else’s post and was inspired to write my own.  Only this one wasn’t pleasantly wacky and funny.  This one hurts.  And that’s why I’m writing it.  I hope some of you share this, it’s important for these things to be spoken of. First, go read Kate’s post […]

Roaming through my Reader this morning I came upon All Fooked Up’s post about sleep medication.  It tickled my funny bone, and reminded me of a similar incident in my own life.  I started writing it out as a comment on her post, but then decided that everyone should hear it.  ‘Cause you know, it’s […]

Ok.  I know that the interwebs give us the ability to get important news out to the masses quickly.  Unfortunately, it appears that proper editing of news articles has gone out the window.  I’m starting a series of Unfortunate Grammar posts.  Here’s our first! From this article on Yahoo News just now: “At the height […]
