  • Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 81)

    I learned Friday that Murray isn’t only a little Internet famous. He’s also famous at a certain emergency veterinary clinic here in Brooklyn. He’s famous because of how much he enjoys chewing plastic and rubber. When I walked into the ER on Friday, the head doctor—like, the guy with his name on the plaque everywhere,…

  • Murray Is At The ER Again.

    Oh, Internet. Please say a few kind words for my feline companion. Murray is at the ER again for ingesting some more of Em’s stuff. We need to figure out why he’s doing this. Someone mentioned PICA. I really need to put an end to this somehow. Please email me or leave a comment if…

  • Get Mad About This.

    (I put this up. I took it down. I put it up again. I took it down again. I am putting it up again, with a few additions. If I get attacked, so be it. I’m ready for it. I think.) There are several bloggers upset about a post over at Mom Logic written by…

  • Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 80)

    Murray may have ingested something so I started giving him fiber pills in hopes of moving it along. For whatever reason, Murray tends to prefer his pills whole, so we kind of just give them to him as is. http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=3159894&server=vimeo.com&show_title=1&show_byline=1&show_portrait=0&color=01AAEA&fullscreen=1 The good news is, we woke up in the middle of the night to tend…

  • Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 79)

    On Wednesday! I know! But I couldn’t help myself because a couple of you sent me email letting me know how much you missed Murray. One of you nearly broke my heart this morning when you wrote letting me know that your cat passed away. (I’m so sorry, Wendy) So, here’s a couple of pictures…

  • Spring Break!

    I feel I have been neglecting this site lately. Out of the dozen or so posts I did manage to push live over the past couple of weeks, maybe two were worth a damn (in my opinion). That said, I think I need a break. Hell, I think even YOU might need a break. I…

  • January 29th: Lunch

    French fries with ranch dressing. Why? Because I turned 35 today and french fries are good. I’m not sure what 35 brings a person other than closer to 40. Lately, I have felt as though my life is flashing before my eyes in slow motion. I know, that sounds absurd—like I’m trying to write something…

  • Tuesdays With Murray (Chapter 78)

    It’s haiku Tuesday! (Another subtitle could be, “A bit of a cop out because mama had a long day at the pediatrician.”) Stole my food again. And chased my paper towel. Wish he was still small.

  • Big Trouble In Little Shirt.

    My head is spinning with ideas and new projects. Forgive me for my lack of updates, Internet. Let me make it up to you with this: He’s awesome. Have I said as much lately? He’s just awesome. This age is just awesome. (Except for when he wakes up at 4 AM or screaming on the…

  • On Feminism

    It’s a simple question, I just want to know what you think of when you hear (or read) the word feminism. What type of woman do you consider a feminist? When does feminism rear its head in your everyday life? I’m not looking for text book definitions, because we all know that terms tend to…
