I Pretend Too

I Pretend Too

The other day I was at the playground listening while two little girls were playing. It sounded like they were pretending to be Princesses hiding in their castle. Isn’t it great that getting older does not mean you necessarily lose your sense of imagination? For example, here are a couple ways I have used mine in the last month or so: Pretended I had any idea what I was doing … Continue reading

Celebrities Tip Off Paparazzi

Celebrities Tip Off Paparazzi

Celebrities tip off the paparazzi. Don’t let them fool you. Like I have said a million times, do you think there is a photographer trailing Ryan Seacrest and Jessica Simpson all the way to Italy? There has to be some information exchange so they know their exact location. They may get money from the pictures that get sold (Heidi and Spencer) or use it to promote their image (Britney Spears, Lindsay … Continue reading

Text Messages Before and After Baby

Typical Text Message Exchange with Friends in 2008: Friend: What was the Made for TV Movie with Tori Spelling where she is stuck in a cabin? Me: Mother, May I Sleep With Danger? Friend: Yeeeesss! Me: A Spelling classic. Friend: So true. Me: Not as good as Death of a Cheerleader, but solid work. Friend: Need a solid karaoke suggestion. Help! Me: Kiss Me Deadly by Lita Ford. Friend: Not … Continue reading

If Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston, and Angelina Jolie Were in High School

If Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston, and Angelina Jolie Were in High School

I have been looking for a new perfume. Believe it or not I have had the hardest time finding something built on the base of tears and desperation and with hints of bitterness. You know, something I can wear day and night. Then I read Jennifer Aniston launches her new fragrance Lolavie in London tomorrow. Sweet! Looks like I am going to be taking a trip to Rite-Aid this week. … Continue reading

My TIVO Thinks I am a 10 Year-Old Girl

My TIVO Thinks I am a 10 Year-Old Girl

Dear Tivo, I was so confused late last year when started adding episodes of EXTRA to my cue. Were you under the impression I was a big Mario Lopez fan? Last week you started adding Suite Life on Deck and Jonas LA to my cue. Since when do I watch the Disney channel? Were you under the impression I was a ten-year-old girl? What fifth grader watches Curb Your Enthusiasm … Continue reading

Sh*t My Dad Says – Go Get This Book

Sh*t My Dad Says – Go Get This Book

I have been laughing out loud every night reading “Sh*t My Dad Says” by Justin Halpern. Here are some of my favorite quotes: “On His First Day of Kindergarten: “You thought it was hard? If Kindergarten is busting your ass, I got some bad news for you about the rest of your life.” On the Death of Their First Dog: “He was a good dog. Your brother is pretty broken … Continue reading

Jessica Simpson and Ryan Seacrest Must Pay the Same Paparazzi

Jessica Simpson and Ryan Seacrest Must Pay the Same Paparazzi

Celebitchy has some photos of Jessica Simpson with her new boyfriend in Italy this past week. Somehow paparazzi have followed her to a foreign country and managed to get shots of her in perfect hair and makeup. How in the world can they get shots of her straddling him on a yacht, eating a romantic dinner, and strolling hand and hand through the streets? Something smells like a set-up and … Continue reading

Happy Birthday Mia!

Happy Birthday Mia!

We did it! A year ago Mia was born and we have managed to keep her alive. We brought her home without any manuals, winged it most of the time, and somehow created a really happy little girl. Because parenting is, let’s face it, harder than any job you can imagine we would like to thank the following people for their contributions: Our Family – Thank you for helping us … Continue reading

What I Have Learned From Watching Real Housewives

What I Have Learned From Watching Real Housewives

It is no secret that I am a big Real Housewives fan. Sure, it is mindless television and all the women cast are complete mental cases, but it is my escape. I am a busy lady. Pour me a glass of backstabbing and serve me a slice of dysfunction and I am in heaven. After watching all these seasons there are a few very important lessons I have learned. 1. … Continue reading

College Reunions and Why Women’s Colleges are Bad Ass

College Reunions and Why Women’s Colleges are Bad Ass

You would not be the first person to ask me why in the world I would go to an all women’s college. I get it. You assumed they are filled with lesbians, hippies, and stuck-up Southern debutantes, those who suffer from anti-social disorder, or just generally hate men. Why else would someone subject themselves to four years in a PMS induced coma? I get it. But we don’t protest for … Continue reading
