OK, I have a real problem with this too. There is another online dating service that people can join. A dating service for married people who want to discretely “date” other people. Their slogan? Life is short. Have an affair. I know that people have affairs. But they shouldn’t. Isn’t this public promotion of seedy […]

Dear “Part Time Swinger”

August 20, 2008 6 Comments

Thank you for the very interesting point of view you left in COMMENTS about the Kevin & Bean KROQ Swingers Party.  There is so much I’d like to say that I think a new post is in order: “Yeah, you kinda ARE a prude but then again not really. To be accurate, you’re typical. You […]

Would you enter a contest where these things are part of the prize package? Moral bankruptcy The undermining of any trust in your relationship An STD The selling of your soul in pursuit of hedonism A weekend of debauchery that will inspire guilt and bad feelings forever after Your personal contribution to the further disintegration […]

There’s a fine line between uninformed and stupid.

My boys have KP every night after dinner. I cooked the dinner, they can clean up. Invariably, one of them finishes before everyone else and gets started on their share of the clean up. Rich and I have gotten tired of them interrupting our dinner (we actually try to enjoy our meal by chewing and […]

Please use your head. It’s that thing you’re supposed to be shampooing.

I cannot tell you who. I cannot tell you why. I certainly cannot tell you how. All I can tell you is that all of the bath toys and toothbrushes from the boys’ bathroom are currently going through an extra hot, super duper cycle in the dishwasher. And will probably be put through again, just […]

Bedtime Story.

August 19, 2008 Leave a Comment

“Mom, will you read me?” (That’s not a typo: “read me”) “I already did, but you may take a book to bed and read it to yourself.” A love of reading is a good thing, but I would think it’s uncomfortable.

Don’t take the apple.

I forgot about this: When we were camping last month, I took Grant into the women’s bathroom to get him ready for bed. There was a woman in a stall when we arrived, but Grant didn’t notice. He yakked non-stop while I got him ready, even trying to talk with the toothbrush in his mouth. […]

Where’s my emergency sewing kit? And I’d like some Visine, please.

I am the kind of person who will pull you aside and let you know if you have spinach on your tooth, or a booger, or toilet paper stuck to your shoe. I would hope someone would do the same for me. So when I’m standing in a line this morning, and I notice the […]

I’m not checking anyone’s pockets but my own.

I want to renegotiate my laundry contract. Now. Doing laundry for boys is tough work. It smells bad and there are often unmentionable stains and things that need stain remover. (Lots and lots of stain remover.) Doing laundry for boys is usually unappreciated. It requires follow-up to ensure that the folded clothes laid out on […]
