Pulling teeth, my nerves, and the Dane.

July 24, 2008

Benjamin will probably lose his second front tooth tomorrow. I’ll have to watch them strap him down, gas him and then pull. All of this after they stick a needle into his gums. And I’ll have to do it alone…again. The first time they replaced his cracked tooth with a cap, the second time they [...]

A letter to my future husband.

July 21, 2008

This could be a letter to no body. To the air. To the moon. To whoever is listening. Because I may never get married again. But I just felt like writing a love letter to somebody … so why not him? He who is a distant figment of my imagination but maybe if I start [...]

July 20, 2008

Okay, this one is for me. Three questions mixed with some babbling. 1. How do you clean up Play-Doh? 2. What are some good Play-Doh games or activities? (We had a Play-Doh cook off, but tomorrow he’ll want a new game.) 3. How do you keep them contained in one area? (Not necessarily the kids [...]

The man in the kitchen.

July 20, 2008

My ex-husband has a little problem. He won’t let his girlfriend’s 7-year-old son call him Dad.

So what’s a jerky ex-husband to do? “Why don’t you just let [...]

Two hats and two worms (well, kind of).

July 14, 2008

The poor little worm didn’t have a chance. It was my fault. “Benjamin, look! Look! It’s a worm!”  “Yay!!! Ha ha ha ha!!” He’s jumping up and down with excitement. The worm was being eaten alive by ants and was clearly on his way to a slow, excruciating death anyway. I try to stifle a [...]

Baggage check: I won’t let myself fall in love.

July 12, 2008

I left my phone charger in California. And after one day with no interruptions and no friends to run my emotions by … I realized how nice it is to be disconnected. So I didn’t buy a new one. Now it’s been five days of phone free bliss and a lot of time to reflect. [...]
