Lately, I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but I have, on occasion, complained. Grumbled. Belly-ached. Moaned and groaned, fussed and freted, sniveled, whimpered, whined, and yes, repined. I have my reasons. But not tonight. Not right now. Not with the smell of wood smoke in my hair. This evening I finally put together my birthday-present-three-months-early [...]

Housekeeping brief.
Having been introduced to Eat the Damn Cake (and blogger Kate Fridkis) by Jezebel, I’ve decided I’m in love and have added her to my Smart People blog roll. Also, and on a strikingly unrelated note, I just deleted a comment that was awaiting moderation, in spite of its even tone and the writer’s calm [...]

Your diet, yourself.
So on Sunday, I’m at the grocery store. There’s a short line. I’m glancing about in boredom, willing my eyes to float past the gossip headlines — so my eyes settle on the other magazines. Bright and shiny things, they are, after all, and they draw the eyes — thonk! — straight to them. I [...]

Mistakes were made.
Well! Turns out this blog is a year old! I’m a bit stunned really, as blogging was once a thing I was fairly certain I would never do. Well, you know the old adage: Never say fairly certain never. I’ve been pleased to discover that I’m mostly capable of sticking to a schedule of daily [...]

Gilad Shalit and 6,300 Palestinians.
Today is the fourth anniversary of the capture of Gilad Shalit. Shalit was serving at an Israeli military post on the border with Gaza when he and his unit were attacked by Palestinian militants. Two other Israeli soldiers were killed; Shalit was taken into Gaza. This event came a day after Israeli forces went into [...]

Buzz kill.
Lately the husband and I find ourselves sharing deeply personal cultural artifacts with the boy and the girl. The girl and I are working our way through the Betsy-Tacy-Tib books, having not long ago completed the Little House series, and even more recently, the Winnie the Pooh books. In each case, it’s been a joy [...]

Good stuff: Sports page.
And if I may, just briefly, if I could have a moment, just, you know: U!S!A! U!S!A! U!S!A! That is all. (I don’t expect WordPress to allow this picture to stay for long, but enjoy it while you can. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! Wasn’t it fucking amazing? Fucking amazing. Whew!)

Housekeeping: RL blog roll.
A very long time ago, I said that I would create a dedicated blog roll for people who happen to know me in — as it is sometimes called — meat world. I have two small blog rolls for the folks from Balloon Juice and Jezebel/The Basement (and if you know me from any of [...]

Ma, the well’s run dry!
Been a couplea days — I let myself slide yesterday, what with two posts (well – a post and a half) on Sunday, but dude. This is technically meant to be a five-days-a-week affair, is it not? The problem is that there is nothing that I want — much — to write about. I owe [...]
