Late Enough I Ask Advice Button

Okay I NEVER wear thongs. And I won Best Butt back in 1995 at my summer camp so it’s not because I can’t shake it with the best of them. But I cannot handle the INFINITE WEDGY (said in a echo-y voice like in the Muppet’s Show PIGS IN SPACE). And any sentence that ends [...]

I’m outside of Starbucks. I have a few minutes to write before I have to head to the car. This is my first DAY OF WRITING and I don’t want to waste any time. (Except for the trip to CVS to buy a hair tie. There is an inverse correlation between whacked-out hair and good [...]

We are out dinner. (I’m on a cooking hiatus. Ask my empty refrigerator.) Next to our table is a trendy woman who is at least seventy (honestly, the entire restaurant is pushing seventy. It’s 5:30 p.m. in a Greek restaurant. Everyone outside is still digesting LUNCH.) She’s fashionable and wrinkly, which I admire. Until we [...]

I’m heading off to my ten year college reunion. I would love to write some snarky post about it, but I’ve been pretty snarky all week and I’m starting to feel like I’M THE PROBLEM. So honestly, I’m just a little freaked out. I haven’t seen any of my college friends since… 2003? And even [...]

Last week my son is running around my backyard naked.  COMPLETELY nude-y-pants.  He suddenly jumps in to our plastic red wagon and says: I want to go on a WALK. He doesn’t even know that we, as human beings, don’t do a lot of naked walks.  And I wonder: When do we become conscious of [...]

On our Sunday hike, I am sitting with my daughter at a picnic bench.  A man in his late thirties is about ten yards away from us wearing the t-shirt: I Heart Hot Moms. I don’t really get the shirt:  Is he a single guy on the prowl for a mom?  Single moms?  Married moms?  [...]

Too many underwear

This past summer I (we) potty trained my son. Let’s revisit the moment. The moment that lasts for weeks and weeks and weeks and weeks. (Did no one tell you that, too?) My goal that summer is merely to house train E. But one thing led to another and he uses the potty EVERYWHERE. (Well [...]
