The Cheesecake is Rich

So, we adopted Scooby in June 2004 and Betty in August (?) 2004. They are not blood related (we get asked that a lot) and Scooby is about 6 (?) months older than Betty. Anyway, one day in early 2004, I was reading the Sunday newspaper. I took a look at the Pets for Sale [...]

(and yes, I know that while I am sleepy, my brother and his wife are drop dead exhausted) So, today was a day I call SUPER PAYROLL WEDNESDAY. The workday started at 5 am. Ugh, I hate getting up early. And since sooooomeone insisted on watching all 55 hours of the Celebrity Apprentice finale show [...]

I hate the last day of vacation. By this time tomorrow I will be in the sky, flying from Las Vegas to an unnamed city in Texas that rhymes with Chew-stun. (On the bright side, I have 3 words for you: first class upgrade!). (Seriously, like I didn’t pay enough for my flight, now they [...]

I need something to do as a hobby. I like to read. I like to watch movies. I loooove to write (you don’t say, Elaine!). But I need a new hobby that’s not reading online baby forums, reading infertility/baby/mommy blogs*, looking at baby gear online. Plan B is over and it was all for nothing [...]

I have so much to talk about! But not right now. I have to be out the door in 20 minutes and I am at least 30 minutes behind. This ought to be an interesting day!

(or, Holy Hell, Academy – did you have to increase the Best Picture Nominees to 10?) So, the movie theater showed all 10 Best Picture nominees today and last Saturday. If you’re thinking that’s a lot of movies, you are absolutely correct. If you’re also thinking, “Just how long does that take?” the answer is [...]

I don’t know if this dream is funny, weird or something else… So, the w-2s arrived at work yesterday (Friday). D and Gwen sort them (there are 3000 of the little suckers) and all the current employee W2s are sent via FedEx to the locations. I didn’t do much to help (busy sorting checks). Clearly [...]

remember when I did my 2009 Year in Review and I said I thought there was a third pregnancy out there amongst my friends (either of the IRL or the FaceBook variety and I just realized I should point out that IRL = In Real Life, not Indy Racing League)? Yep, I was right Yay [...]

So, we had this for dinner and it was YUMMY. Two thumbs up. Recommended. As one says when leaving eBay feedback, Would Bid Again. A+++++ In other news, for a minute, everything in my bookmarks bar in Safari was lime green. WTF? White Dog, if you have plans to croak, I will….oh, man, I can’t [...]

Okay, so I steal this from Erin every year, but this time I’m going to edit it so I don’t look even more moony and pathetic. 2009 was kind of a single issue year for me. You’re welcome. Edited to add: Apparently I edited out the question about “Anyone close to you give birth?” and [...]
