    (Don’t click any of the links below if you’re anything like me and can’t shake stories of animal abuse. I have half a mind to delete this post entirely. I feel terrible for calling attention to such a horrible news story.) Joseph Petcka deserves whatever comes his way. If that means being tormented by other…

    I stupidly began reading about my birthing options yesterday evening. Gave myself nightmares, I did. My birthing classes don’t start for another month but I figured I’d read up on some stuff, get to know it a little more, figure out what, exactly, might happen to me on the day I go into labor. Is…

    When we first found out we were pregnant, we were running potential names by everyone we talked to. “What do you think of these three boy names?” We’d ask. We’d get all sorts of responses. Some people would say, “I like your girl names better.” or “So, how are the cats?” And my favorite type…

    My older brother and I grew up on these. I think we were introduced to it for the first time at YMCA camp. That’s where I learned the name of it, too. There’s a brunch spot here in Greenpoint called Enid’s where you can get one of these. Enid’s refers to it in the same…

    I have put on 22 pounds since getting pregnant. 22 pounds. This is troubling for me. I know I’m supposed to be putting on weight, but 22 pounds, man. Here’s how I think: since my baby currently weighs (at most) 1.5 pounds and will probably weigh 7.5 pounds when he’s born, I’ve got at least…

    Tobyjoe and I built another Web site last week. When Schmitty was sick, we looked all over the Internet in search of a forum devoted to pet health and pet bereavement. We were both shocked to discover how few sites there are out there, so we built our own. The site is called Sick Pet…

    Two weeks ago Tobyjoe and I visited the Inn at Little Washington in Washington, Virginia. Our vacation was to last through the week (we were going to stay in Washington, DC for the rest of the week and visit friends) but we had to cut it short and take care of our very sick cat.…

    My head I had a rough day yesterday. I half expected it since I had been feeling better. But yesterday hit me hard. I posted a few things here and then decided that I hated what I had written. So during one of my fits, I turned the posts off. They will return when I…
