Feelin’ Hot Hot Hot…And Not Not Not
I tend to run hot. By that I don’t mean I look sexy completing a marathon, although I guess that could happen in a parallel universe. In a galaxy far, far, far, far away. What I mean is that when … Continue reading
Arf Or Art? Woof!
We had the opportunity to once again visit with our favorite artist, Yuri Gorbachev, at our favorite place, The Byrne Gallery. I blogged before about a certain incident that happened with a woman I shall call Dog Lady. Now we … Continue reading

Fighting Weight
A recent guest in our home looked at Mrs. Helen Roper sleeping on a chair and asked if she was pregnant. I was taken aback. I said no, she just looks f-a-t in that fur. Helen looked hurt for a … Continue reading
Happy Hump Day!
What is it about this crazy camel that makes me laugh my head off every time I see the commercial? I think it’s because we’ve all worked with this guy. Plus, you know, talking animals are funny. Plus it’s about … Continue reading
Dressed To Kill…The Mood
It’s that time of year…the time when traditionally I rotate from my spring/summer wardrobe into my fall/winter wardrobe. It occurs to me that this year, my wardrobe is…not really a wardrobe. I’m not a stay-at-home mom; no carpools or PTA … Continue reading

Government Shutdown = Family Breakdown
Much has been written about this government shutdown and the idiot hyenas we call Congress (with all due respect to hyenas). I won’t attempt to out-pundit or over-think or under-mine the situation. But if you want to know how this shutdown … Continue reading
It’s A Big, Furry Deal
Well I’ll be damned. I’ve been so busy promoting my book, I neglected to score endorsement deals for my cats. The so-called “Grumpy Cat” (aren’t they all?) on the other hand, is set for catnip and chow for life. I don’t … Continue reading
