On the fifth.

    Happy Fifth Anniversary to you, my amazing husband.   You are a wonderful provider, earnest, hard working, and a loving father to Z, your female doppleganger.   This hasn’t been an easy journey. We’ve already had more than our fair share of keeping it together through the “sickness” part of the vows. We’ve…

Some Saturday Stuff- October 19th.

The world’s best hot chocolate, at The Chocolate Bar, Winchester, Virginia.     So I’m back home after a fabulous AND busy week down in Virginia with the BFF. I’ve now gone down there so much some Facebook friends are asking if I’ve moved. Nope, still in Jersey, just enjoying one of the benefits to…

Nothing compares to truth.

  After citing Sinead O’Connor’s “Nothing Compares to You” as inspiration for her own “Wreaking Ball” video, Miley Cyrus has gotten quite the response from Ms. O’Connor in the form of an open letter. From Vanyaland (beware, the following is chock full of foul language):   OPEN LETTER TO MILEY CYRUS Dear Miley, I wasn’t…

Please stop your proselytizing.

  I know I’m going to sound like a such jerk, but I really wish all those e-proselytizers out there would just shut up. I’m sick of your frequent status updates, pictures, memes, tweets, Vine vids and blog posts. It’s not “good news” to a lot of us.   Told you I’d sound like a…

Throwback Thursday: Early 90s Fashion Edition

Me, on the left, and Giddel (we go back like babies and pacifiers). Notice I’m wearing black overalls, which would’ve made me on point for trend #7 (see below), except this picture was taken in 1997. Yup, I have never been a fashion maven. Ever.       Thursday has become the official day on…

Some Saturday Stuff- July 6th

Cousin hugs!     Good Saturday morning! I hope you’re enjoying this long holiday weekend. Despite my mother’s illness, I have. Yesterday, Zoe and I had lunch with my stepmom, Kathy, and my neice, Sophia, Joscelyne’s little girl. After munching on crab cakes and mac and cheese at The Tropicana Diner, we went to the…

On the 4th.

Painting by Frederic Edwin Church, 1861, oil on paper, “Our Banner in the Sky”, H/T: http://www.urbancure.org/     My friend Aja sent me an email that had the picture above in there. After yesterday’s post with bad kitschy paintings, it’s nice to look at art that combines country with some class. I wonder if it’s us…

Not so radical notions of Feminists.

(Source)   I don’t identify as a feminist. Not first wave, second wave, third wave or wavy wave. I don’t like lots of labels, and this one, for me, is particularly problematic. It seems to mean so many different things to different people. The fact that people have to use descriptives like “second wave” or…

On Father’s Day.

Me and my Daddy in 2010   Yesterday was Father’s Day, and from a casual perusal of the interwebs, a lot of people have some pretty jacked up relationships with their dads. Or, with the father(s) of their kid(s).   This is quite understandable. Sad, but understandable.   While I’ve written a bunch of posts…
