My kids’ new favorite song, by Joe Nichols.

“Wine for beer?” As in, “drink wine first, then beer”? I don’t know who said this last week, or in what context, but my kids have interpreted the statement as, “Whine for beer.”

Which explains why they’re upstairs giggling right now, saying, “I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed beer! Give me a beeeeeeeer! Why can’t I have beeeeeer?”

Dear God, please let my children grow up to not be boozehounds. Please? Thank you.

Please keep this in mind, would you, lil trolls and assclowns? And yes, I do have your “real” e-mail, even though you left a fake one.

Bye-bye, french fry.

Clap, everybody. Clap! OH MY GOD IT’S MY BLOG’S ANNIVERSARY AND I ALMOST FORGOT. Three years! Damn.

Happy birthday, Blog. I do love you so.

Little reviews today. This whole “working outside of the home instead of inside in my home office, blogging, spacing out and watching General Hospital on Tivo…” it’s kinda throwing me. I’ll deal, do not fret, Internets. (more…)

How to Cook Vegetable Green Curry, Wacky Mommy-style

1) Decide to cook dinner. That’ll be a shocker. (I have lost all mojo for cooking.) (Lost.) (As in, gone.)

Wacky Girl, apprehensive: “You’re cooking?”

Wacky Girl, screaming to her brother: “Wanna play Candyland?” (more…)

“Evil is like a shadow – it has no real substance of its own, it is simply a lack of light. You cannot cause a shadow to disappear by trying to fight it, stamp on it, by railing against it, or any other form of emotional or physical resistance. In order to cause a shadow to disappear, you must shine light on it.”

— Shakti Gawain, teacher and author (b. 1948)

Zip, this is everyone. Everyone, this ZIP! There! It’s done. Now we all know each other. (more…)

“If a man would register all his opinions upon love, politics, religion, learning, etc., beginning from his youth and so go on to old age, what a bundle of inconsistencies and contradictions would appear at last!”

— Jonathan Swift, satirist (1667-1745)
