My Husband is a Good Man Who Eats Orange Peels


What a Good Halloween Weekend

I’ve never been a big fan of costumes, just the candy. Now I get it.


For Our Last Night Without the Booboojingjing

We did some more karaoke, met up with old friends, hung out with new ones…til 4 a.m. It was a welcome distraction; I couldn’t wait til morning.


Longer Than the Road That Stretches Out Ahead

We haven’t stopped having fun since our first adventure three years ago. And actually, even sitting in traffic is fun when you’re with your bestie.


Whoa, I am a Real Mommy


I was missing Jah so badly today, and I realized this must be how parents feel all the time when their children are away. It’s a sick, queasy feeling coupled with an emptiness that distracts you into trying to start everything and finishing nothing.


This Week Was Pretty Productive


Jah went to Milwaukee to visit relatives without us, so we tried to keep busy. We bought our tickets to the Philippines, got old computers fixed, cleaned out closets, got massages, watched a movie (Moneyball) in a real theater and went to the Prospector for karaoke. I sang “Suedehead” by Morrissey and it’s been in my head since.

She is very old, and sometimes I miss her and the OG booboo.


Jah Got Serenaded

The artist Airika played this song on her mini accordion especially–and only for–Jah because she thought he was so cute! She’s an amazing artist, and he loooooved it. I’m sure even at 9 months old he knew how special that was.


Sorry I Was Out of Commission…Had a Baby and All

Can you blame me for thinking I have the cutest baby ever?
