It’s five o’clock somewhere! Not here of course, because if it was five, I’d be making a mad dash to my car to get a head start on being stuck in traffic for an hour on my commute home. And that’s with a carpool. Northern California is the definition of highway hell. So in order... [Read More]

I’m considerate of wood.” (Larry David, Curb Your Enthusiasm) While I was looking forward to being out of work for four days for Thanksgiving break, I had to scramble to find the perfect gift for my friend. My bff turned 31 last week. Thankfully, her before me. It’s okay that we’re getting old... [Read More]

Okay, okay. I’m starting to accept this thing you all call Fall. I’ll deal with it for one reason, and one reason only. And that reason is not the Pumpkin Spiced Lattes that I mentioned yesterday.

In honor of last night’s debacle, I mean, debate, I put together a little gift basket for the brand spanking new job of the President! Sadly, one of these two candidates is going to be our President in a few months, and thus, I’ve got to start brown-nosing now. I mean, I wouldn’t want to... [Read More]

Disclaimer: I am not in any way promoting divorce. My husband is stuck with me forever. I mean, literally. He better put up his feet, because he’s got quite a while to go here. Three years down, a million more to go. And if you asked him, he’d tell you that the past three years have seemed... [Read More]

I’d like to inform you all that it is Graduation Time. This should already be evident to you. I’m sure there is nothing on your Facebook news feed other than photos of children graduating kindergarten to the ‘adults’ graduating college. I’ve even seen a photo of someone’s baby ‘graduating’ from daycare. Is that a real thing? I’m not quite... [Read More]
