Our second OB appointment was today. I was both looking forward to and dreading it — looking forward because I like to know our baby is still doing okay, but dreading it because we might find out something’s wrong. There never was a worrywart like an expectant mother. Our baby, happy to say, is doing […]

dirty little liar
My mother called me last night to tell her her best friend is going to be a grandmother. Her son and his wife are expecting their first child next June — a day after I’m due, actually. I just grinned and nodded while we talked about that. I know my mom’s ready to be a […]
man the Vitamin C torpedoes
I know I haven’t written in a while, but me and everyone I know has been sick — there’s a nasty somethin’ going around. Steven had a horrible cold last week, and just as he was getting better, I got hold of it. Hopefully it’s on its way to packing its bags. My sister and […]
Hot Girlsâ„¢
When you go to the beach, you’re bound to see some scantily-clad flesh. For some people, what would be the point of a beachy retreat if you weren’t going to see some booty? Once when I was a kid a lady walked down the beach in an absolute thong. We are talking dental floss up […]

where a kid can be a kid
Saturday Steven and I got together with his family to celebrate his brother Kevin’s birthday. It was a relaxing afternoon of burgers, beer, and wine. As we talked over our meal, we brought up various birthdays of years’ past. Kevin had a birthday party at a McDonald’s once. My sister had one at the Pizza […]
I capture the cat
Last Sunday I get a call from my sister, who was staying up the road with my parents: “There’s somebody here you need to come meet!” she said in a sing-song voice. My first thought was, “Oh, my goodness; they’ve tamed Jim-Bob!” which is the name of a baby rabbit that has been frequenting my […]
