Rocking the Manic Part
My divorce was final yesterday.
I colored my hair again. Using Manic Panic.
Oh yeah, Manic Panic is awesome.
I bought this:
Manic Panic comes in jar and is a cream. You would think this is messier than a squirty tube thing like most hair colors you are used to. Well, now, you would […]

I am not going to BlogHer.
I’m slightly irritated by this fact. It’s only in Chicago, after all.
Because I maybe could have gone but didn’t have the ability to foresee this when I needed to plan for this hoohaa. I had no clue if life would be settled enough. Kids, divorce…I […]
My children made this so they could beat the shit out of it with Light Sabers
Yesterday…
Daniel: Mom, do you have any old pillows you don’t care for anymore?
Me: Sure, grab one of those ugly pillows that came with the couch.
Daniel: Do you care if I write on it?

Daniel: Hard?

Brett: Mom, can we use the stick pile by the […]

Years ago, my dear sister thought it would be hilarious to cut my boys’ hair. Granted, Daniel had a shitty haircut at the time. Brett was probably fine. Lindy cut their hair.
So they came home in little baseball caps. In a swirl of dramatics, they swooshed off their hats giggling at […]
I Do Swear
I have my niece over today and I swear to Odd that she is the prettiest, most clever little girl on the planet.

So what was it?
I started studying this painting (briefly, as I was studying about 600 others too) a few years ago working at the museum.
It has a few weird quirks.
1) It’s on slate. A stone. Wait for 2011 St. Louis, the resulting show if it goes on as scheduled should be […]
Dear Milwaukee,
You are all right. You are even fun.
I loved your art museum, oh yeah.
Mainly because you have this crazy painting on slate. I’ve been waiting over a year to see this. Look closely, notice anything?
However, Milwaukee, you felt a lot like St. Louis.
We never could get the Milwaukeeness of the […]
