I’ve been trying to figure out why it’s taken me so long to write a follow-up post to the “Where Do I Go From Here?” post and I’ve come to a couple of conclusions. First and foremost is the fact that I knew I needed to respond to your comments and I just didn’t have… Continue reading Shoving At the Comfort Line

Yesterday At Gymnastics or When Ollie Melts Down and Moms Are Cool As Hell

You know how there are some days you wish you could do over since you know you’d do them differently and better? Yeah. Yesterday wasn’t one of those. Yesterday was one of those you hope you never have to do again. Ever. Mondays are gymnastic days for Cara and we got up and out in… Continue reading Yesterday At Gymnastics or When Ollie Melts Down and Moms Are Cool As Hell
Daylight Savings Time, a Good Riddance To You, I Say.

I put this up on Google Plus yesterday right after I removed my eyelids from the greedy hands of the man child. I had planned on leaving the sentence above all by itself and jumping right into the diatribe below but I figured I should explain that just about every morning my alarm clock is… Continue reading Daylight Savings Time, a Good Riddance To You, I Say.
And the Interwebs Didn’t Die

An interesting thing happened recently: I took a break from the internet and didn’t miss it. I didn’t really mean to take a break and it’s no coincidence that my “break” perfectly coincided with me receiving my copy of Sims 3 Pets.

I’m productive, too! AND, despite the real possibility that our funding was going to fall through on the house, everything… Continue reading The Military: They’re Just Doing Their Jobs But Don’t Forget Them
Mashups with Unexpected Awesomeness

The thing I like about mashups is that, if they’re done right, mashups are smart and almost witty.

Yucky and Dumb: Alyssa Bereznak, Jon Finkel and Lots of Links

At some point yesterday I happened upon the much discussed topic of a Gizmodo intern’s not-so-nice piece she wrote about the online dating site OKCupid and Jon Finkle. Huh? [Mom, I now read everything I write like you’re reading it and you’ll just have to follow the links.] I worried over the whole line of links… Continue reading Yucky and Dumb: Alyssa Bereznak, Jon Finkel and Lots of Links
Tutorial: Make a Customized Google Plus Profile Page

If you’re one of the millions of folks using Google + right now, you’re well-acquainted with users’ profile pages. If you’re not on Google + yet, the profile page [or whatever it’s technically called] looks a lot like Facebook in that there is a profile picture on the left and then a row of images… Continue reading Tutorial: Make a Customized Google Plus Profile Page
