No Pain… No Gain
7 Comments Published February 28th, 2008 in Travelin', It's Really Just All About Me....You know how you can get a little bored with your exercise routine? How sometimes you need to do something new to keep your workout fresh?
In fact, I was heading home from work and knew I had to go to the gym. I really didn’t want to. I lacked the motivation. Well, some are born […]
Not much time to post today. But I do have a fun new blog for you to check out. Very funny stuff.
It’s called Stuff White People Like… and it’s a funny look at all the stuff that, well, white people like… and it’s very, very spot on.
Here’s one of my favorite posts:
“In general, white people […]
Chickens & Cows to the Rescue
14 Comments Published February 24th, 2008 in L.A. Toddler, Tuneage, It's Really Just All About Me....I told L.A. Toddler a joke. I told it to her for a reason, but she didn’t think it was very funny.
I said, “What do you get if you cross a brown chicken with a brown cow?” She shrugged her shoulders and said, “I dunno.”
And in my best imitation of the classic 70’s porn music, […]
Did You Catch the Eclipse?
9 Comments Published February 21st, 2008 in City of Angels, News of the Day.Tonight, there was a lunar eclipse. It’s the last one until December 20th, 2010. It was pretty neat stuff. I managed to snap a few pics with my camera.
It was pretty cloudy out, but I did manage to get a few decent shots. Even though it looks like daylight, I took the shot at 8pm. […]

How To Tell Your Child Had Too Much Candy
8 Comments Published February 15th, 2008 in L.A. Toddler, Kids Say..., It's Really Just All About Me..., Holidaze.After L.A. Toddler ate most of her Valentine’s Day dinner last night, we let her indulge in some of the treats she brought home from school.
Being a toddler, she is very adept at working the system and managed to get approval for more candy from me, her mother, her baby sister, and the cat… I […]
Do You Do Valentine’s Day?
12 Comments Published February 14th, 2008 in L.A. Mommy, L.A. Toddler, It's Really Just All About Me..., Holidaze.We don’t. Not really. We kind of do Valentine’s Day… Sort of.
How’s that for commitment?!
Well, for those of you who do Valentine’s — I hope it’s a happy one.
For years, men have complained that it’s a “corporate holiday created by greeting card companies and florists.” I’m in that crowd, I guess. The day has always […]
I’m Calling for a Moratorium
15 Comments Published February 11th, 2008 in Realpolitik, Traffic, It's Really Just All About Me....I’ve had it. I’ve had more than enough of it and I’m calling for a moratorium!
On what? Bumper Sticker Politicians. And basic abuse of every other part of the back-end of a vehicle.
Every single day, I whiz past dozens of morons with a sticker or two on their bumper, back glass, even directly on the […]
You know how you drive on really old tires and you just know that you’re pressing your luck? But you’re cheap… so you push those old white-walls as long as you can? Because, hey, they’ve still got some tread! They hold tire pressure. You only slide a little bit when you go around the corners. […]
The Wet Run?
5 Comments Published February 6th, 2008 in L.A. Mommy, L.A. Toddler, It's Really Just All About Me..., L.A. Baby.A wet run? Well, that sounds entirely too gross…. But I wanted to follow up on our new daily routine I documented in The Dry Run.
It took a while (and several drowsy shouting matches) to get adjusted to our new schedule. But… we’re managing. In fact, just this morning, we were even early. We were […]
