The Cheesecake is Rich

(Back home aaaagaaaain, in Cheesecake Ciiiiity)
Anyway! We just walked in the door from our trip to the Frozen North (and Frozen it was – it snowed in both IN and OH), so now I feel safe in promoting that we weren’t home the whoooole time.
Highlights:
In Indiana, we hung out at Mom and Dad’s house, opened [...]

So, I’m in Ohio right now. (Please do not rob my house). At some point this year, I decided that I wanted to take a full week off work and do the Indiana and Ohio visits and :: theatrical sniff :: I deserved a FULL week of vacation, complete with BOTH weekends so I would [...]

Go Mom!
Mom was the big winner on Sploofus a few days ago for the daily “Who the Heck Am I?” quiz. She got the answer right before anyone else.
Yay!!!

?!?!?!?!
Thank heavens for Facebook. And for a husband who is far, far better at empathy than his wife. (And wasn’t mad when we overslept this morning, whoops).

Whooo! It is 1:30 on Monday morning and I am not asleep. This is not good. Tomorrow is going to be a tough day if I don’t get to sleep soon. I blame the 5 pm nap and 20 oz of Diet Pepsi (listen, I had a HEADACHE – unlike on Xmas 2008, at least [...]

My darling baby brother, Macaulay/Bill, kindly reminded me of one of the greatest parts of my entire wedding experience. And most of you were witness to this, but…what the hell, since when has redundancy ever stopped me?
So, our rehearsal dinner was held at a Creole (?) restaurant in Cheesecake City. I chose it because it [...]

Happy Father’s Day, dad!
(For the record, I didn’t call before he went to work so I will call after he comes home).
(And no, we haven’t heard from The Boy.)

(or, Why did someone get here by searching for “Cooler than the Easter Bunny”?)
Anyway…the year that we lived with Gene’s mom, we had custody of The Boy on Easter Sunday. And at that time, The Boy was young enough to believe in the Easter Bunny, Santa Claus, Tooth Fairy, etc. And at that time, I [...]

So I guess I have to give Mom back to Indiana. Yesterday, my actual 29th birthday, was awesome. I wish I could say we did all sorts of fabulous things, but it went like this: donuts, grilled cheese, home improvement TV, walked the dogs, more TV, dinner, watched the Candidate, sent Gene to bed, more [...]
