So I watch the Bachelorette. Don't stone me. I know. My husband says it's my contribution to the downfall of Western civilization. Anyway, last night, something unprecedented and pretty amazing happened. If you don't watch the show (and I know none of you decent people do), let me give you some background. Desiree Hartsock, this [...]
This is the continuation of last week's story. The Wongs are all meeting up in San Francisco. It's the early 1990's. Peter has already left Eric and Kauai after his father came and "collected" him. Now Peter is going to Stanford Law School and dating Jen. Want to catch up (of course you do)? You can [...]
This is the continuation of last week's story when Eric got into some serious trouble after getting drunk with Simon. Want to get caught up? Start here. And if you want a list of the whole torrid affair, go here. ******* "Your mother didn't expect you home tonight, did she?" Frangelica glanced over at Eric from the bar. [...]
We're back in 1991. This is the continuation of last week's story when Eric met the fabulous Frangelica. Want to get caught up? Start here. And if you want a list of the whole shebang, go here. ******** "So, was that a friend of yours?" Eric looked up to see a tall, heavy-set man standing next to [...]
So here's one more reason to lose faith in humanity: the LFL or "Legends Football League" (truly, I regret linking to this and showing you any of it, so I'm just sending you to Wikipedia because I know these jackasses really enjoy the publicity from irate people like me writing about them). The LFL was [...]

I was in Target today, just cruising because I'd hit one of those dead-time points in the day when you can't go home but it's too early to pick up the kids, and I found myself in the toy section (for reasons I myself still can't understand). Anyway, I was checking out the Monster High [...]

I went and saw Les Miserables with a girlfriend the other night. It was an amazing movie, but for some reason, I still feel like I could just nitpick it to pieces. I'm starting to think this could be my calling -- professional life nitpicker. Too bad I can't get someone to pay me for that... [...]
I got a comment from a reader on my last blog who was basically annoyed with me because she felt I voted with my vagina. Which is strange because I didn't even know my vagina had fingers (although my husband does claim it has magical properties). Anyway, she was generally ticked that I vote for [...]
This parenting saga comes to us from GG, who blogs at The Glad Gardener. With four older stepchildren plus a 4-year-old in the house, she has plenty of material. And it's no wonder why she loves going outside to get dirty.I have an ongoing battle with my 15-year-old (Cassie, short for Procrastinator). She has very [...]
Partly Sunny isn't here. Well, she is, but she's not. She's in two different places at the same time. It's some sort of Einsteinian, parallel universe, quantum physics thing. Or. . . So I somehow conned the people over at mampedia.com into running my post on talking about sex with the 6-year-old. Ugh. You just [...]
