You Can’t Beat Talking Animal Videos Or At Least You Shouldn’t Since That Would Be Like Animal Abuse By Proxy, Right?

My Header is Janked Because, Ollie’s Ear and a Startup’s Awesome Video

If any of you were wondering why my header is all janked, just know that it’s not that much my fault. The charger for Darwin’s battery kind of split in two and since it’s pretty important electronic shocky stuff be all in ONE piece, I was doubly screwed. I’m currently on Tucker’s laptop. The laptop… Continue reading My Header is Janked Because, Ollie’s Ear and a Startup’s Awesome Video

Tucker Being Right and Me Freaking Out About Being Alone with Ollie [Gif Heavy! YAY!]

Cara starts school this fall and you’d think I would be freaking out about the kindergarten thing. Instead, I’m freaking out about Ollie being home with me. For two years. Two years of not having Cara around during the day. Two years of entertaining just Ollie. Two years of him being bored with me. I… Continue reading Tucker Being Right and Me Freaking Out About Being Alone with Ollie [Gif Heavy! YAY!]

This Is Why Kids Shouldn’t Play with Other Kids

Last month we were all sick with some sort of soul-sucking sickness that lasted far too long. Once we had recovered, Tucker and I agreed that if we had just taken everyone to the doctor then we probably would have suffered A LOT less. Oops. Now I’m back from Blissdom and the kids are sick… Continue reading This Is Why Kids Shouldn’t Play with Other Kids

Change Previous and Next Text in Thesis On Pages and Posts

ADD Moment and Military Song Schtuff

I was worried that, with the kids gone, I was still going to wake up at my–way too early–regular time and wouldn’t take full advantage of this whole “kidless” thing. Sleeping late used to be one of Tucker’s and my favorite pastimes Not going to tell you what time we rolled out of bed because… Continue reading ADD Moment and Military Song Schtuff

We’re Kidless for Eight Nights!

Since I head to Blissdom this Thursday, my mom and Tucker’s folks have been kind enough to look after the kids while I’m gone. The grandparents all get grandkid time. Tucker gets time off from EVERYONE once I’m at the conference and I get to rejoice in a peaceful mind when it comes to the… Continue reading We’re Kidless for Eight Nights!

Educating Parents About Video Game Ratings Via New ESRB Campaign

There’s this thing I’ve been rolling around in my head for a while now about how most parents–particularly the ones who don’t play video games–are scared of games and are scared of their kids going on a shooting spree because of games. Maybe I’m exaggerating a tiny bit, but there is a lot fear around… Continue reading Educating Parents About Video Game Ratings Via New ESRB Campaign

Pedigree and Westminster Break Up Pound Puppies Rejoice

One of my favorite and hated ad campaigns has been the Pedigree ads for shelter dogs. Favorite because I love shelter dogs. My first dog, Sydney, was a shelter dog. She had been a “bait dog” for a local pit bull fighting ring and was evidence. I was fostering her and if I hadn’t been… Continue reading Pedigree and Westminster Break Up Pound Puppies Rejoice
