Realizing Your Grass Looks Greener from Someone Else’s Side

white fence -- grass is always greener on the other side

The other night, while I was up with insomnia, I started making a “You Suck” list. It’s just one of many lists that go through my head when my other non-sleeping choices are to: Make a list from the other 100 lists regarding everything from “Brilliant blog posts that come to me…at 2 a.m.” to…

Even the the Crappy Moments on Facebook are Fake — And that’s “Fine”

Like this -- sure he's a mess. But look how cute he is.

Ever since that study came out about Facebook making people depressed, I’ve read many a blog and Facebook post professing the need to “get real” about our lives. In the most recent article, “We Need to Quit Telling Lies on Facebook” on Kveller.com, Sarah Emily Tuttle-Singer writes about her “real” Saturday with the kids, not the cleaned-up, Instagram-filtered…

If You Like My Bloggy and You Think I’m…Funny

Circle of Moms Top 25

When it comes to humor, I’d say I fall into the self-depricating end of the continuum. The unfortunate part about that is the underlying problem of sometimes believing what you say. And not in a funny-ha-ha way. Maybe it’s a Chinese thing (I’m half, you know). Maybe it’s just how I was raised. Maybe I’m…

When You Wish Upon a Blog

Like an innocent little schoolgirl, romping ’round the playground, I’ve been smacked on the back by a bigger, stronger, faster kid and declared “It” in a brutal game of tag. Okay, that’s not entirely accurate. But bullying is just so “in” right now. My friend, Kelly DeBie over at DeBie Hive has tagged me in…

Is Facebook Plugging the Walmart Spring?

Something really disturbing happened to me on Facebook today. Deep down I’m hoping there’s a complicated, techy, and completely legitimate explanation for it, but I’m fearing the worst. First, an explanation. Many of you know I have what’s called a “fan page” for World’s Worst Moms. Fan pages are different than personal pages. When I…

The New Website is Here! The New Website is Here!

So did you guys see this? I’ve got a new website! Well, not exactly new. Call it improved. Fresh from a microdermabrasion facial. Made-over and modern. And not even stuffed into Spanx. All just for you… I sort of feel like I should do a drumroll. Or say, “Ta da!” Or crack some champagne over…

So Long Sunny

So Long Sunny

This is a really weird post to write… Starting tomorrow, Partly Sunny, Chance of Rain is going to be surrounded and sucked away like a bacteria being engulfed by an amoeba (can you tell what the dinner conversation was at our house?). In an effort to keep from going even more insane, I’m combining my…

Hi, my name’s Tammy, and I’m a Liberal

Dearest Worst Moms, So it’s been a crazy week. First of all, we’ve somehow been nominated for Best Mom Blog at Hot 99.5 in Washington D.C. (you can vote for us here and that would be swell). This is all, in a word, awesome! But completely crazy. And second, I have some big news (maybe not bigger…

Pain, Pain, Go Away

So two weeks ago, I was rear ended by a drunk driver (sorry — timeliness has never been one of my strong suits). My poor little hybrid Actually, she wasn’t a “drunk” driver. Turns out she was on a bunch of prescription drugs. Which makes more sense, seeing as it was 9:30 in the morning….

Mojo on the Run — Waiting for the Dark Days to Pass

I haven’t been around much in Internet land. Last weekend, I took the kids to Monterey (which was quite the haul in a three-day span). Then they had to do Nevada Day reports (Sarah Winnemucca and the Hoover Dam, if you’re just crazy curious). And, of course, there was Halloween. And yes, all of that stuff…
