People are always telling me that they like the names I picked out for my children. Usually I just say, “I know! Aren’t they great?” But sometimes I’ll tell the story of how I didn’t think of the name Matilda until an hour before her face felt room air for the first time. Elby was MORE »
Recently I went to the doctor to get my physical. I’d gone in to do labs a few days before and I was anxious to hear that everything was great. I mean, I felt great except for this anxiety I’d been getting out of nowhere. I knew I wanted to tell him about that because MORE »

Motherhood. Sometimes talking with other moms can be a transcendent, fulfilling experience. A chance to share that connective fiber which brings women together.

Dear Everyone on Facebook and Twitter: I don’t care about what you eat. Not as in the fact that you discovered a great Indian place in your neighborhood or that you just ate a pint of Ben & Jerry’s Karamel Sutra (cause that shit is good, yo!). No, I’m talking about your Food Plan. That MORE »

There are a lot of things I love about being in my 40′s – 46 to be exact: Finally understanding once and for all that cellulite creams don’t work, being at peace with my technological ineptitude, at long last not caring if I suck at singing. There’s a freedom that comes in knowing my 20′s MORE »

I’ve been thinking about aging lately. When I saw the movie “This is 40″ I wondered if everyone is as freaked by turning 40 as Leslie Mann’s character who was so horrified she couldn’t even let anyone including her kids say she was 40; she just kept emphatically insisting she was 38.

I have not had a drink in over 3 and a half years. I don’t talk about it much but that’s not because I’m not involved in “non-drinking” activities, it’s just because it never feels like I have anything public to say about it. The accidentally well publicized date I got sober is May 22, MORE »
‘Tis the season to take tons and tons of photographs of the fam, right? But these days it’s always the season. I have 16,000 pictures on my computer waiting for me to do something with them! When I was a kid, my step-father was a photographer and he was constantly taking pictures of everything. Unfortunately MORE »
