Pin ItYeah. So rather than trying to string together a series of thoughts in an orderly manner, I’m going Daddy style on y’all and giving you bullet points. Deal. Being a CPA widow sucks. Adonis dealt with his first month of “busy season” by spending his weekends in the garage working on the cars….

Old School Blogging
Pin ItYup… b/c I know you miss me and b/c I have nothing more interesting to share. Well, there is a new book that I can’t wait to start (google S.E.C.R.E.T)… I’ll be reading it tonight with a glass of something in my hand. Adonis better watch out. So here we go, kicking it old…
Words of Wisdom Wednesday
Pin ItI had hoped to make this Wet Wednesday but that post is going to take a little more time and perhaps more research. Ahem. So in its stead I offer you the latest and well, no, this isn’t the greatest thing since sliced bread but wow I like it and am happy to share:…
Guess who
Pin ItIs quitting ‘poo? And no, The Dude didn’t miraculously potty train himself. Damn it. Wow, is it me or is my kids’ bathroom a lovely shade of ocher? Jeez. Anyway over the past year I’ve been trying to reduce the amount of products I buy/use. Last year I switched from a 23 ingredient cleanser…
BlogHer stories
Pin ItSaturday I’m having a little shindig with a few of my favorite “local” bloggers. We’re calling it the AntiBlogHer. There will be less schmooze, more booze and NO sparkly unicorns. There will be one cheesy DJ since Adonis is DYING to show off his new sound system. Sorry folks. So speaking of BlogHer and parties,…
Observations and a tune.
Pin ItI was in a (new) beauty salon for a rare visit yesterday and enjoyed observing the life around me while my new best friend worked her magic. Next to me was a mom having some seriously crazy work done when her husband brought her 9 year old daughter by. The young lady plays soccer…
Eating my words, revisited
Pin ItUm, uh. Hm. So I wrote this post in February about having a fat mouth, speaking before thinking, and general asshattery. I whined and moaned about saying yes to a house that I hadn’t even fully toured. There were ugly, hateful words hurled between me and Adonis. There were tears. That was February. We…
I’m a failure and that’s okay
Pin It My first full time job out of college was retail sales. Fun gig since I was in gorgeous Palo Alto and had the likes of Larry Ellison throwing around money like it was grass seed. I stayed in the game for a while. I sold stuff I believed in, worked where I wanted…
Setting the world on ….tepid?
Pin ItPlease tell me you’ve heard the song We are Young by FUN. The damn thing is stuck in my head. Sure, its a catchy tune but I think its the chorus that resonates with me: Tonight, we are young so let’s set the world on fire. We can burn brighter than the sun. Â …
Mad Libs, madwoman style.
Pin ItSome of you may know that when the mood strikes, I like to write some fiction, some memoir, some combination of the two. My source of inspiration is my sordid past Write on Edge. Them girls are my homies, yo. Anyway in honor of April Fool’s day, they’ve created a Mad Lib…and it has…
