So when I said that my pregnant belly is about as far out as my 36D's, I was exaggerating. Truth be told, my belly is bigger than the average 14 week pregnant chick, but I've been told that it's basically because my organs are being moved around to accomodate my growing uterus. That's some craz...

I have been admittedly negligent of my blog for months and have gotten flack from a few of my readers. What can I say? Real life gets in the way, and a day becomes 6 days, then weeks and months go by... I constantly think about cultivating my life as a writer and was not very happy about how lazy I'...

A genocide is taking place in Africa. So far, an estimated 400,000 people have been murdered and an untold number of women and children in Darfur have been raped. We are witnesses to the first genocide of the 21st century. Please read the following article from The Jewish News Weekly....

My Old Man and I went shopping for a costume that he needed for an upcoming performance so we went to our local Halloween Adventure store.   While browsing around,  I saw this:   They're reminiscent of the ones that Mickey (may he rot in hell) Rooney wore as Audrey Hepburn's Japanese ...

My husband would be proud that I'm quoting Guided By Voices. Anyway, this past Monday and Tuesday, I went to my monthly literacy workshops. During this time, a sub is hired for my class. Apparently, the sub was late dismissing the class. As a result, a parent came into the office to raise holy hell,...

Are you laughing?   Adam Carolla, former co-host of that pinnacle of moronitude and slob humor show, "The Man Show", thinks it's funny.   He did a skit poking fun at the Asian Excellence Awards and thought saying "ching-chong"" was so funny that he did it 42 times- consecutively....

Last week, Amy and I went to the Whole Foods Market after breakfast with Mo, Ross, and my Old Man. Old Man decided not to accompany us for shopping after seeing the nightmarish line and hightailed it back home. As we waited on the massive line, I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turn around to see ...

Sorry I haven't updated as of late.   Been a busy little bumblebee these days.   I've been elected to one committee at school- the School Leadership Team- and I've also joined another committee- The United Federation of Teachers Staff Committee(or whatever the damn thing is called). NYC ha...

(I wrote this on an online forum in response to this really shitty article about teachers and the public school system.)     http://abcnews.go.com/2020/Stossel/story?id=1500338   I think we can acknowledge that there's a problem with the educational system here, but it's not just one ...

After much deliberation, we decided to have a New Years's party. I spent my whole vacation cleaning up the apartment, shopping, and readying myself for a fine evening of debauchery and drunken mayhem. Unfortunately, dear husband and I ended up cancelling the party and we rang in the new year with vi...
