  • Family Guy and Down Syndrome Character

    Okay, I admit, most days I live under a rock. I don’t watch “Family Guy” anyway, so not watching the episode (two Sundays ago) where apparently there was a character with Down syndrome that poked fun at Sarah Palin, wasn’t much of a stretch for me.

    Now, as most of you know, I am not the mom running around demanding that you all bow down to my daughter and pity her based on her diagnosis of Down syndrome.

  • girl scout cookies galore!

    i love girl scout cookies. so naturally, when i got a phone call from my eager little girl scout neighbor, i bought a few boxes.

    then, i got to school and lo and behold, there are girl scout cookie deliveries galore. i still hadn’t gotten my first order of cookies, so i ordered some more…. not going to end well.

  • Olympics

    I live a mere 40 minutes away from the heart of Vancouver, BC and haven’t written a thing about the Olympics. This isn’t to say that I haven’t experienced anything that’s gone on the passed two weeks; in fact quite the contrary. Perhaps this is the reason I’ve neglected to write about it. There is just so much going on.

    The city has been so alive!

  • This is OUR day, not YOUR day

    I’ve noticed a trend lately, which has been around for, I suppose, forever.

    But I only just started noticing it in the past few months.
    What with shows like Bridezillas and Say Yes to the Dress, I got to thinking.

    When did a wedding become a girl’s day to act like a spoiled b*tch?
