Hello from La Petit Puppe’, the daycare for the discerning puppy owner! As you may remember, we have a new puppy. After three weeks in her new home, Tess has done her best to leave her mark on everything inside. Wow. I haven’t had a puppy since Callie was little in 1996. Over the years, [...]

One day. One whole day’s worth. That’s how much freedom I got to experience with the start of school. Well, technically, it was a day and a half. But that doesn’t matter; what’s important is that I’m an idiot. The details of my descent into dementia aren’t really relevant. Okay, one detail is totally relevant. [...]

Don’t stab the Charmin!

On Twitter last week, my lovely friend Sarah laughed at my use of the word “stabby” to describe my mood at the time. (Stabby: A word that I can’t take credit for but am totally willing to be considered creative for using.) Anyway, I was feeling stabby about traffic in the Atlanta metro area, which [...]

What you are about to read is NOT fictional. Any resemblance to actual people or events is 100% accurate. This kind of thing really does happen here. Way too often. Abby was upside-down on the couch again. Stomach to the seat, legs against the back, head hanging down toward floor. THUD. Her head made floor [...]

As you can imagine, this week has felt a little bit full. With Callie Dog’s passing early Tuesday and keeping kids home from school so they could “grieve” (which looked an awful lot like playing and bickering and researching breeds for our NEXT dog), I had to spend Wednesday and today catching up. So I’ll [...]

Sometimes when too much time passes between my writing sessions, the creativity builds up like magma under an Icelandic volcano with an unpronounceable name. Then a day comes along when the creativity magma blasts a hole in the glacier of housework that I’m supposed to be doing, shooting shards of crazy into the atmosphere over [...]

Serendipity (N.) Definition: finding something unexpected and useful while searching for something else entirely. Usage: Last night on the Twitter, my friend Nick the Geek offered a pile of dog hair to anyone who wanted it. Well, what serendipity! I had just decided on my topic for today’s post. DOG HAIR. Now you might think that [...]

And yet ANOTHER way for me to bring the conversation around to bodily functions. I swear, I didn’t even try this time. So anyway, my fellow former Cali girl Wendy at Weight What? participated in a gr8 meme full of 8s. And since I’m totally l8 in getting a blog post out and, as f8 [...]

Yes, it’s about time for me to participate in this blog carnival again. I can always benefit from a little introspection. Here’s what I’ve learned this week: If you’re gonna bake two frozen pizzas, don’t put them directly on two racks, with one above the other. Cuz if you do, the top pizza will self-destruct [...]
