Dear JJ…

Dear JJ Abrams, Dude! It must be the hardest of jobs. And the pressure is truly on…I’m sure you’ve felt it. We, the fans, are chomping at the bit. If you’ve stepped into social media for more than a nanosecond, you know this! And now that the last trailer (and most epic of trailers ever…

My New Favorite Words…

I’d been begging D and H for weeks, to let me read Harry Potter to them. They hemmed. They hawed. They’d heard of Harry Potter, of course. Who hasn’t! But they just weren’t exactly eager to sit still for a chapter a night. However I persisted saying, “You’re gonna love it…I promise!” One night they…

I Promise, I’ll Keep Trying

Well, there goes all that hard work and those healthy initiatives from a few months back. Remember that? Remember when I thought I’d figured out the “secrets” to staying healthy and spoke like I knew something…anything about it. Look at me up there, all pompous and motivated and successful at losing weight. And sure, it doesn’t…
