  • Maria Shriver comes to Palo Alto for a Book Signing

    I was fortunate to be at a book signing last night in Palo Alto where Maria Shriver answered some very interesting questions. I’m going to show them to you out of sequence, because my favorite came at the end. (I also have a bunch of photos of the event on Flickr.) She was asked what…

  • Lions, and Tigers, and Bears, Oh Crap!

    Every year since we started having kids, Spring has meant time to start visiting the San Francisco Zoo. We’re members and we usually go on the monthly Member Day so we can get in early. I know what we need to do when, so we get in and out with few child or adult meltdowns.…

    To hell with naming them, I’m still stuck on the fact that you can get chicks in the mail! I saw Shine A Light last weekend too. I want to be reincarnated as Keith Richards. I bet he never gets stressed out. It hurts my feelings too when my kids don’t like dinner I’ve taken…

    (First of all, I’m sorry for the “Go Read It Today” pile-up in your RSS feed. I imported all the Linksational posts, and unfortunately they ended up as ‘new’ in the feed. Won’t happen again ;) Go help Clusterfook. Just do it. Blurgh, sleep deprivation with a newborn is not my favorite memory. She’s coming…

    This week I have: Signed Mike up for T-Ball Registered Robbie for Kindergarten Signed Mike & Robbie up for 10 weeks of YMCA summer camp (Thanks to nicole/wksocmom‘s comment!)

    Whoo hoo! “gone” — and we can all exhale. I’m still laughing about this. Bonus: correct usage of the phrase “grinding rectal ache.” Erin. You rock that press pass. You’re a force. I love any recipe that begins with a whole jar of honey. Agreed. There is something wrong with the idea of plumping your…

    Hey, did you know that ThisIsMeMaria was back? I didn’t — and check out why I missed her. I laughed! I’m her friend now! I actually laughed so hard I cried, so I guess that makes me a friend who calls you up in the middle of the night weeping. Hmmm. Yay, I can’t wait…

    I’m now in the position of desperately needing to know what a “more secure location” for underwear is. I also want to know how you can kiss before you date… IMO, Cleatus is lucky to be alive! Snort! That’s my kind of humor. Are you the owner of malfunctioning housing forms? Go buck up Amalah,…
