…my marriage vows.
Word on the street is that TechBoo has already started on his.
It’s like, “physician heal thyself.” Kinda. I can write other stuff in my sleep. But this…not so much.
I’ll just procrastinate some more, and go find a poem for Li’l Mama (my oldest future bonus daughter) to read. Let this marinate…
I’m fairly certain that I’ve posted a blog entry with this exact title before. Because it’s true. I’ve always been blessed with good friends, even though many times in my life I’ve nevertheless felt alone in the world. After my mom, grandmother, and dad died in 2005, which coincided with the break up of my [...]
I love it when Baby Girl and Mini-Me get to spend time with TechBoo. I get tired just watching them. So much energy and joy.
Thanks, as always, to El Ex for making this possible. Because he acts like a grown up and doesn’t disparage TechBoo (or me, for that matter) to our girls, the girls [...]
This station break from reading/review writing is brought to you by…my future stepdaughter #1. What shall I call her on this blog??? Hmm.
I got it: Li’l Mama.

Anita Baker Could Face Jail in [...]
I got the Best. Valentine’s. Day. Gift. EVER.
From TechBoo, of course. He TOTALLY gets me. This is why I love this man.
I got him a bunch of cards from this hilarious collection.
And I sent this one to a few folks who I knew would appreciate it:
Spending some one-on-one time today and tomorrow with Mini-Me, starting wtih breakfast at our favorite crepes place. Then errands, then basketball practice, then…who knows? A day, a treasure.
Well, so much for the weekend getaway with TechBoo. We had to reschedule that due to a forecast of up to 2 feet (yes, feet) of snow here in the DMV area. But thankfully, my flight arrived before Southwest (the official airline of our relationship) stopped operation in preparation for the impending snow dump.
TechBoo is [...]
Sometimes, you need 10,000 Maniacs. Not 9,999; only 10,000 will do:
…and other times, you just need to Wonder:
Good morning, new day! Let’s do this…
“You’re super-smart and a great writer, so…”
I love conversations that start out like that. I love it even more when the remainder of the conversation isn’t someone trying to get me to write for free.
Unfortunately, that’s exactly what has happened more than a few times after I hung out my proverbial shingle and offered up [...]
