Okay– so fingers crossed, everyone. She’s doing better. Geoffie threw up last night–a lot.  (And there wasn’t that much time to throw up, either. I went to bed at two a.m. and all the puke was found at seven.) Anyway, took her to vets this morning, and she was cold and shaking and dehydrated, and… Read More

Okay– so last night I started a SuperBat fic and sent it out and went, “Sorry, no sex!” But I ended it RIGHT BEFORE they went on a date. So their date has been playing out through my head all day. It’s VERY X-RATED. You’re welcome. *  *  * Superman kept him wrapped in his… Read More

So, in honor of no jury duty for me… Let’s have no jury duty for Batman. * Clark looked at the little envelope in surprise. “You’re not going to try to get out of it?” Bruce grimaced. “Everybody has to,” he said patiently. “It’s part of our justice system. Aren’t you supposed to believe in… Read More

*  First of all– thank you all so much for the kind words about Gordie. The weekend was pretty sad without him. *  Next of all, I may or may not have jury duty tomorrow. I find out at 11:15 and I’m in a quandary. On the one hand, ugh. It’s half an hour away,… Read More

 So, the kids went back to school today, and I was super excited. I was going to meet my friend, Karen, today because she was dropping her husband off at the airport, and Mate was going to pick the kids up. It was like a special day, just for me. I was going to talk… Read More

Okay, so most of you have figured I’m a T-shirt whore. I will buy almost any T-shirt, especially if it supports a cause, and double especially if they have one in one larger than my size, which is a B for Behemoth. Anyway, this shirt SEEMED perfect. Gray, cotton/poly, lightweight, it said, “Families Belong Together”… Read More

So I blog four nights a week, most weeks. I think of it as a professional thing, and I like sharing, and I love telling stories, so it’s not really a hardship. Tonight, as I was sitting down to blog (which is usually the start to the bulk of my work day and the time… Read More

So, I’m not a great bargain hunter. My idea of looking for a deal consists of, “Can this experience be over before I hate the store, my kids, and myself? Yes? Good deal!” But today I looked at the Old Navy bill with some dismay. Oh my God.  We’re broke! “So, if you fill out… Read More

BTW This is an even better blog title when you have Pink’s “Here Comes the Weekend” going thumpa-thumpa in your brain, right? Anyway… It was a weekend. What can I say? Do laundry, do dishes, walk the dogs, take a nap (notice the picture of Mate in front of the TV!), see a movie… I… Read More

Someday the end of August won’t mean schedules . Someday, it won’t mean trips to the store for new shoes. Someday, I won’t have to worry about the right classes,  Or the friends that didn’t call through summer blues. Someday, they’ll buy all their own underwear. Someday, they’ll buy all their own clothes. Someday, I… Read More
