We Are The Music Makers, And We Are The Dreamers of Dreams
Hold on Tight I Don't Exactly Know What's Going to Happen! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r2pt2-F2j2g As a child, I remember being quite frightened by Willy Wonka and his Chocolate Factory. My strongest memory is of the Oompa Loompas, they were just plain scary. I have been waiting for years to let Isaiah watch Willy Wonka and … Continue reading We Are The Music Makers, And We Are The Dreamers of Dreams
I’m not saying YOUR child doesn’t have anxiety. I’m saying just because mine likes to control everything doesn’t mean HE does.
I think I may have over-advocated for my son a few weeks back. You didn't think there was such a thing did you? It's kind of like Munchausen by Proxy, only not. I wasn't making him sick or faking symptoms or anything. No, instead I was willing to accept a list of possible disorders based … Continue reading I’m not saying YOUR child doesn’t have anxiety.

the Time I Almost Tweeted John Cusack or When Reality Infiltrates Fantasy
Insomnia will do funny things to your brain. I know. I've had a lot of experience with it. Last night in my insomniatic fugue state I had an imaginary conversation with John Cusack. In my head it all started with a tweet. @JohnCusack did you ever hang out at No Exit over on Glenwood … Continue reading the Time I Almost Tweeted John Cusack or When Reality Infiltrates Fantasy
Twisted MixTape #40 – Where Did The Hardy Boys Go Wrong?
I think the first time I ever saw Valerie Bertinelli was on The Hardy Boys. She played a really sweet sorority girl, named Wendy, who was scared because her sorority sisters were getting kidnapped. (If you don't want to be regaled by my unhealthy fascination with 70's pop culture feel free to skip to the … Continue reading Twisted MixTape #40 – Where Did The Hardy Boys Go Wrong?
MS-DOS and ESP
Warning: If you are under 38yo this post may make no sense to you. When I was a little kid I thought I could talk to aliens through my computer, and that my best friend was psychic. Those things were not mutually exclusive. When we were in junior high (because middle school did not exist) … Continue reading MS-DOS and ESP
Old School Blogging
So my friend Dana over at Kiss My List tagged me in the Old School Blogging Lists of Five. I am happily playing along, because it's fun, and I don't want to think of something serious and poignant to write. Funnily enough, I couldn't think of 5 things I'd like to do before I … Continue reading Old School Blogging
Twisted Mix Tape Tuesday 10
Ah The Sixties, those were the days. Rock n' Roll was shiny and new, minimum wage was $1.00 and skateboards became the hottest thing, allowing kids to surf on asphalt. Not only that; but we got Star Trek, The Addams Family, The Jestsons, The Flinstones, Bewitched, I Dream of Jeannie and so much more! … Continue reading Twisted Mix Tape Tuesday 10
Who is Chewbahoe Anyway?
I've been asked to contemplate what my favorite movie is. Truth be told, I am not one of those people who will watch movies over and over and over. That's my husband. You might make it onto my list as a favorite even if I haven't watched you in 5 years. I've been trying to … Continue reading Who is Chewbahoe Anyway?
