The California Milk Processor Board along with ad agency Goodby, Silverstein & Partners have launched a new “Got Milk?” ad campaign touting the benefits of the white stuff in reducing the symptoms of PMS. The problem? Many women — as well as men! — are finding the ads humorless and offensive. Take a look: As someone who […]
Remember how I said that we were working on transitioning Claire from 3 naps down to 2? She continued to hover back and forth between 2 and 3 naps for over a month. But in the end, it took a traumatic visit to the pediatrician’s office to officially push her over to the 2 nap schedule. […]
J and I grew up in a culture and generation that was all for physical discipline. In fact, it was rare to find a household that did not spank/cane their children. Our homes were not the only places for punishments either — I still remember how, having attending up to the 2nd grade in Korea, all […]
J is finally back from his business trip, and I couldn’t be happier. This was the first time in years that we had spent a night apart, so being away from each other for three nights was plain torture. We had promised each other that we would video chat every night via Skype, but you know […]
In the 24 hours that J has been away on his business trip… 1. My laptop died. 😥 Either that, or it’s tinkering on the edge. The symptoms seem to be similar to what this guy was experiencing, and there does not seem to be a solution. (I do not have Apple Care either.) […]
Living in an area with fairly good public transportation — in addition to having an infant who does not like car rides much — I hardly ever drive anymore. I even walk to the grocery store, pushing Claire in her stroller (thank goodness our stroller has a huge bottom compartment that fits 5-6 full grocery […]
Last night, I got to meet one of my all-time favorite authors. I also indulged in the best fried chicken in New York. And that was one of the most exciting things to have happened to this 6-months pregnant mother of a 9-month old in a very very long time. Sad, isn’t it? The rest […]
Digital Photography School has sparked another Canon vs Nikon debate by posting the following infographic earlier today: As much as I would’ve liked to see more technical data, I can only assume that the resulting infographic would be about 5x larger due to the wide range of products each company provides! On a more personal […]
We took Claire to the pediatrician for her 9 month checkup this morning…and it was awful. Don’t get me wrong — she was declared perfectly healthy and we were told not to worry about a thing. The awful part was that I had never seen my baby girl cry so much at the doctor’s office […]
As I rolled out of bed this morning, I almost collapsed to the floor in a ball of agony. “Hello, pregnancy hip pains,” I muttered to myself. “Now I remember you!” Hip pains and crotch pains. Hip pains from my hip joints loosening (I was not officially diagnosed with Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction in my last pregnancy, but […]
I like books, gadgets, spicy food, and art. I dislike shopping, hot weather, and the laws of entropy. Although I am a self-proclaimed computer nerd, I still have a love for handbags and makeup... and I am always teetering on high heels. To learn more about me, visit the "About" page.
