Dear Tater Tot, Today I would’ve been 21 weeks pregnant with you. I would’ve officially passed the halfway mark, would undoubtedly have a sizeable bump, would know your gender, and have felt you moving inside of me. Yesterday was my 29th birthday. I did not have a candle to blow out, but if I were […]
My idea of a romantic dinner involves debating basketball and football at a four-star restaurant.
I don’t know about other girls, but I find it incredibly sexy when a man can spew off sports trivia. And that is exactly what J did during my birthday dinner tonight at my favorite steakhouse. What made it even more special was that after some supreme pwnage, he proceeded to egg me on. The […]

I am by no means a fashionista.
So perhaps this is the reason I have NEVER heard of the über-popular blog Sea of Shoes until tonight. Jane Aldridge, the 17-year-old blogger behind Sea of Shoes. I found the site intriguing, much like a 5-car pileup on the LIE. You want to not look, but you can’t. Here is a 17-year-old girl — […]
The Abortion Republic

Thanksgiving Day Goes to the Dogs
My dog Comang is obsessed with my sister’s dog Dante. Not in a “I have a crush on you” way. Nor in a “I want to hump the crap out of you” way. It is pure, unadulterated OBSESSION wherein the entire world disappears save for this one Cairn Terrier mix. My poor furbaby, whom everyone […]
“When you first came here I thought you would be hopeless. But you’re a natural.”
I have never shot a gun before.Not because I am against guns,but because I am afraid thatI will like it too much,à la Carolyn Burnhamof American Beauty. Also, klutzes and guns do not mix well. That is why I choose to stick to the piano, writing, and books. Have YOU ever shot a firearm? […]
Shiny Happy People Piss Me Off
Sometimes I fear that there is something dreadfully wrong with me, because happy people piss me off. Share a rant, and I’ll be there to defend you. Tell a sob story and I’ll run over with tissues. But gush on and on about how fantastic life is? Not only do I find you boring, I’ll […]
On Oversharing, Part 2
As if the first time around wasn’t bad enough… Lately I have been confronted by friends and family who asked me not to share so much online, FOR MY OWN GOOD. The “inappropriateness” of my blog (and what I choose to share on Facebook and Twitter) was not only limited to the pregnancy and miscarriage, […]
