    I got a flag. I hung it out front. I’m now that guy. When my brother saw my new flag he said, “Well, that won’t be relevant for very long.” And we both laughed and then we both sighed. Because, yeah. But who cares: GO TEAM USA!

    Hey internet, it’s me, the girl who can’t seem to find time to post. It’s been crazy around here lately. But I have a favor to ask, if anyone is actually reading this. I need your help. It’s about poop, or lack thereof. Walter is a breastfed baby. Although, I do supplement. He probably receives…

    Walt was born yesterday at 6:50 PM. He was a whopping 9 pounds, 7 ounces, which is just crazy. He was the biggest baby born at this hospital yesterday. He’s doing well. I’m doing well. The labor and delivery went well. I will write more about everything when I’m back home and not on my…

    I first got word of the GitHub debacle via Twitter from friend, Derek Powazek. Basically, a woman by the name of Julie Ann Horvath was forced out of GitHub due to sexism and intimidation by one of the founder’s wives, a woman who doesn’t even work for GitHub. It’s a pretty convoluted story, but the above link does…

    On Monday night, Toby and I spent from midnight until 5 AM in the labor and delivery ward. It was a long night. I spent all day yesterday exhausted and trying hard not to cry. (I become an absolute mess on little to no sleep. Think doom and gloom and end-of-the-world scenarios and you have…

    “I’m nostalgic for conversations I had yesterday. I’ve begun reminiscing events before they even occur. I’m reminiscing this right now.” —Max Kicking and Screaming (1995) When I started this blog back in 2001, Toby and I were living in a 3,000 square foot loft in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Our bedroom overlooked the East River and all…

    I’m supposed to have a baby in two weeks. And I had forgotten about this up until today. You see, I don’t hold my breath when it comes to these “due dates” everyone talks about when they talk about having babies. Both of my boys had to be evicted. Emory was kicked out 4 days…

    Many people have asked me about our new roof—what went into having it done, how long it took and how much it cost. And while I won’t be able to give you quite the thorough update Toby Joe could, I will give you my best, layman’s version of what we had done. (Please note: If…
