4 More Years!
Nope, this isn’t about what’s happening in Iowa. Four years ago today TobyJoe and I eloped to Niagara Falls. Here we are that day. We look so happy! We’re actually freezing our tails off. Niagara Falls is bloody cold as hell during the dead of winter. But we were in Detroit visiting Gina and took…

Browsers Anonymous
Recently, TobyJoe and I were discussing the role of the Internet in our lives. It seems that every holiday or vacation or similar break from our daily patterns leads to an awareness of how much time we spend online and how little it really does to better lives. My use of the Internet borders on…

Happy New Year! (Thank You.)
Sorry I haven’t written in a while. We’ve been hanging out with family, baking, and house hunting. I even started up with yoga again, which has done absolute wonders for my mood. I have felt incredible lately and I have TobyJoe to thank for breaking the inertia. Speaking of The Bean, I feel as though…

Hyperthyroidism
I got my blood work results back today. My thyroid levels are elevated. They are elevated enough that my doctor is concerned. I need to visit an endocrinologist as soon as possible.

Here She Goes Again
I love my son. I love him more than words can possibly say. Remember that as I continue with the bitching and moaning. Months ago, we planned on going to Boston for the Barbarian Group holiday party. My parents were planning to drive to New York from Southern Jersey and watch the little man. We…

More on Vaccinations: Hib recall.
I have written about this before. I’ll probably never stop. This is why we can’t blindly trust our government or major pharmaceutical companies. “Dougherty could not immediately say whether the contamination seen at the factory involves a virus or bacteria. She said if someone were vaccinated with a contaminated shot, “There is a risk they…

Happiness and Health.
I lied about surprises. I planned a party for TobyJoe. It was held at a local tapas restaurant here in Brooklyn. I made a cake and at around 6:30, Emory and I packed everything into the car and headed out for an evening with friends. It was 100% awesome. It would have been 150% awesome…

Tuesdays With The Bean and Murray
I’m sorry I can’t use up today’s post on Murray entirely, Internet. But I will include a picture and this video of Murray’s butt. Today is TobyJoe’s birthday. He turns 30. THIRTEE. He’s finally old man river. I turned 30 almost four years ago. I am almost dead. OK, that’s not true, but…
