The last time my husband went out of town, he brought the kids back a coffee mug and a dish towel. I shit you not, those were his idea of appropriate gifts for a 1.5 and 3.5 year old. As I am clearly the better parent, I was determined to outdo him. (Not hard…) In […]
CAN WE BRING WIGS BACK IN FASHION?
This week I came to the conclusion that the four inches of wispy split ends I was trying to rock as “long hair” wasn’t fooling anyone. I wanted them off and I wanted it done yesterday. I couldn’t wait until my normal stylist could fit me in. I started calling around and within a few […]
MY TRIP TO THE DOCTOR
For months now I have been looking for a way to get out of my alleged “promise” to my husband that I would get a gym membership. (I am pretty sure he made the whole promise up, there isn’t enough alcohol in the world to make me commit to the gym…but I digress.) Little did […]
WHY BABBLE.COM MAKES ME CRAZY
My latest rant has been about Babble.com. Some friends recommended that I check out the website. Their humor bloggers sucked me in and so I “liked” their facebook page so I could keep up with their content. BIG MISTAKE! Everyday I am treated the same series of posts. Thanks to the stupid facebook algorithm, I […]
I AM A BAD MOM, EPISODE 552

MOMMA NEEDS A NEW PAIR OF SHOES
Today the countdown to my trip to the US starts. Normally I’d be dreading the idea of 8 hours on a plane, but this time I am going without the kids. 8 hours in a cardboard box all by myself sounds like a dream vacation. As I’ll be traveling alone, I can booze it up […]
NO MORE NAKED BUTTS
Baby bottoms are the cutest thing you have ever seen, as long as you are *not* the parent of said child. Unfortunately, the full moon at my house is connected to the fruit of my loins. Damn. So that means that I am stuck chasing a nearly two year old around the house with a […]
SO MY WEEK SUCKED
Do you ever have one of those weeks that just completely sucks? Where every traffic light you pass turns red, the kids constantly fight and your fat jeans feel tight? The highlight of my week was when my kids mistook eggplant rollatini for pizza and cleaned their plates. That should tell you something. I am […]
