Last weekend, the kids each had a sleepover. Unfortunately, I couldn't manage to schedule them both on the same night, so it kind of felt like an elementary school B&B here (except for the part where I drag my ass out of bed and cook everyone breakfast). Anyway, my buddy, Cheryl, who's much more experienced [...]
Today is Jasper Adoption Day. One year ago, we brought home our little 10-pound puppy. Now he's a whopping 70+ (frankly not sure of the exact amount because I hurt my back trying to weigh him the last time). I love having a dog. And I wouldn't exchange Jasper for any other one, even though [...]
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. [...]

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 [...]
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 [...]
A few years ago, I made the HUGE mistake of sending the kids on a treasure hunt to lead them to their Easter presents. Yes, we're the jerks who get Easter presents for our kids. Try not to hate me too much. A lot of this stems from the fact that my mother, who was [...]
After last week's peak into the life of Peter's dad, we're back to Eric in 1991. This is after he's dumped Peter and come back to San Francisco from his almost deadly trip to Thailand. Want to get caught up? Start here. And if you want a list of the whole shebang, go here. ******** Eric wondered [...]

So we're back from Mexico. We failed to get pictures of us swimming with dolphins, ate one of the best meals of our lives, and almost got in a fist fight with a TSA agent. Just your typical spring break... A little background: Tenzin, my husband, and I made the monumentally bad decision to purchase [...]
I’m in Puerto Vallarta, which is why you people haven’t heard, and probably won’t hear, much from me this week. I went back and forth about saying we were out of the country because I have slightly irrational “Come rob my house” fears, but it occurred to me that there’s nothing of value in our [...]
We're back to present day -- actually January 2012, a few months before Eric shows up at Peter's door. This is a little glimpse into what's going on with Peter's dad, James... Want to get caught up? Start here. And if you want a list of the whole shebang, go here. ******** James Wong had [...]
