Will write for yarn.
This post is actually over at Breastfeeding Moms Unite, written for Melodie upon her request.
It was an honor to share it with her, and I hope you’ll pop on over and read it.
It concerns – you guessed it! Breastfeeding. So don’t say I didn’t warn you. But it’s also about me, and might prove interesting. Or [...]
Do this at least once a week. I highly recommend it as an antidote for wanting to throw yourself in front of moving vehicles.
I have had many, many jobs.
I have been a gas station attendant, a dish washer, a car washer, a book store clerk, an art store clerk, an environmental department cubicle dweller, an analytical lab tech chemist type person, a butcher, a baker, a candlestick maker. But the last three I don’t get paid for, since [...]
I used to be one of those people who would drive around blasting Public Enemy, or D.R.I. from speakers that were never built to handle such bringing on of the kickass.
I sang Nine Inch Nails “Closer” as loud as possible with the windows down and did not care one whit about the people staring at [...]

So yesterday while driving home from New Jersey, I listened to The Seanachai, rocked out to D.R.I., Violent Femmes, Bob Dylan and Lou Reed (I’ll [...]
Over-committed. What a telling choice of words for signing up to do too much: “committed.”
I am working on two guest blog posts, and will link to them as soon as they are up. One is for PhD in Parenting’s Carnival of Play, which is a summary of and links to blog posts during the month [...]
Interestingly, my biggest motivator and friend, Melissa, is also celebrating her 100th post TODAY! I guess we both started taking our writing more seriously about the same time, only she was much more disciplined than I was for a while. Then she started nursing school, and with four kids and a husband to take care [...]
UDATE the last: I hereby declare Chris of Coach Mom fame the winner! Tim Hawkins is a new one for me, and I have to say “I Work at Subway” is genius if for nothing besides his perfectly executed boy-band moves. And the fact that my daughter loved that song years ago so I was [...]
