Already planning or should I say dreaming about our summer vacation to California. I’m not sure how we’re going to do it this year… renting a house in Tahoe was the plan, but, it’s looking ridiculously expensive. I’m still aiming to manifest a house-sitting gig on Lake Tahoe – yes, ON the lake please. I [...]
The grandparents Blase left last night. And despite having to work most of the week we were able to enjoy ourselves a bit. Here is the official fun-count for last week: Country Clubs stayed at: 1 Times spent swimming: 2 Number of margaritas consumed: 3 Rounds of golf played: 6 Number of pedicures procured: 1 [...]
Some photos from Christmas – finally! – including this one where he is practically tripping over his eyelashes: Listening: Surf City
We made it back from our “vacation” – 3 weeks with family in California. My plan was to take a day or two to relax and then leave the kid with any grandparent, aunt, uncle, or nice looking stranger I could find so that Marc and I could get out of the house, see some [...]

Because we had just so much fun that first time, we decided to do it all over again. Traveling totally tweaked the little guy’s internal clock. Our second night in Marfa he woke up every two hours through the night. And because we were staying in a tiny house with Albert and Tari that was [...]
written from Marc’s iPhone while driving – not posted until now, because shortly after finishing I lost the connection – when you get to the string of towns that Marfa is a part of (towns like Valentine, population 217) apparently connectivity is not a priority. So, we made it to El Paso, despite being late [...]
Albert & Tari are coming to visit this weekend! Hooray! While this is great news and means that we are in store for many, many fabulous meals, at least one night of live music, movies (an experiment in how guilty I can feel for leaving the kid with the nanny while NOT working), shopping and [...]
So, the kid is a rocker as witnessed by his affinity for post-punk and its sleep-inducing capabilities. I wouldn’t have even claimed such a thing, had my parents not seen the results of blasting Blood On The Wall in the car over an over-tired baby’s screams. This summer after a housewarming party about an hour [...]
