Fa la la la la… la la.. la… la. This weekend I went into full on Christmas Elf mode. With Nick’s help as the VP of Christmas (he has remote control over the Christmas lights… yes, with a real remote control), we got the condo…

Today: Bi(r)d adieu to Harwich.
When my mom turned fifty a year older, my siblings and I had the genius idea to buy her a pair of love birds. I think, technically, I had the idea and convinced them to go along with it… but once you hear how this…

Today: Check the Doppler.
This weather is just plain crazy. I slept an extra two hours this morning because apparently, as of today, Clark doesn’t wake up at 5:15 anymore. Remind me to start setting my alarm again. I bundled up, grabbed his leash and set off for the…

Today: Call the waambulance.
Remember Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day? Do you think Atheneum is looking for a sequel about a twenty-something miss who had a crappy Wednesday? That’s how I’d pitch it to the publisher. Very evocative, no? No? Welp, now you know…

Today: Get the mail.
I’m not much of a risk-taker, especially when it comes to giving my home address to a complete stranger via the internets. I’ve just unintentionally set up this post to read like a stranger danger after-school special or Lifetime movie. Relax. I’ve not been mailed…

Today: Count my blessings.
Q: If the Pilgrims were alive today, what would they be most famous for? A: Their age. Muhaha. In 1621, the Pilgrims sat down to dine with their Native American comrades at the First Thanksgiving. They wore strange hats and brought all kinds of European…

Today: Get a regular glove.
My dreams of obtaining The King of Pop’s bedazzled glove have been dashed. Hoffman Ma, a hotelier from Macao, “won” that bad boy for $420,000 (his high bid of $350,000, plus commission). MJ wore the sparkler the same day he debuted his signature moonwalk in…
