GRRRRRR. If you are trying to access my other websites, New York Traveler.net, New York Renovator, and Mrs. Mecomber’s Scrapbook… they’re down again. 🙁 Oh, I just checked and now they are up. But my template to New York Traveler.net is a little screwy. Wha? Any geeks out there have any suggestions? I contacted my […]

It’s Mother’s Day!
July 26, 2008
Well, it’s THIS mother’s Mother’s Day. It’s my birthday! Guess how old I am, hehe! My darling daughter sent me the funniest e-card from Hallmark. It’s technically a “Mother’s Day” card, but it’s such a good one it can be used for mom any time of the year! It’s Hallmark’s Hoops & YoYo. I’m nuts […]
This Is What Happens When…
July 25, 2008
… you stay up all night and watch info-mercials… Heh heh! I actually didn’t find this on TV. I don’t have TV! I saw this months and months ago on the Internet. My sons’ recent obsession with Star Wars Legos made me remember it. This is just TOO funny!!! Jedi Ginsu Knife Commercial - The […]
Brochures Designed Fast
July 24, 2008
Well, we went out today for a little car trip! FINALLY! I’ve been so cooped up this summer, it’s awful! We took a drive out to a little museum, and then went to the country to a great park. I’ll be blogging about it on my travel blog. Choosing where to go wasn’t easy this […]
God Shopping
July 24, 2008
I heard this skit on the radio years ago. Something made me remember it recently. (sound of a busy street and a door opening and closing) Bob: Hello! Are you here looking for a new religion? Jay: Yeah. I’m looking for something that covers the “spiritual side” of me. Bob: I see. Let me look […]
The Cisco Kid
July 23, 2008
Yes, I’m old. There was a time when we used to go to something called “college” to get educated for a career. Now- there’s the Internet! 😀 Gotta love it. For a fraction of the price and in the comfort of one’s own home, viola! A career is built! What was once impossible to, say, […]

First it’s Nerf, then it’s paintball! I think I may have started something with my sons. Now, they have GOT to be shooting at something! Paintball sounds like a healthy hobby. Well, I need my house siding painted anyway… lol. Actually, my sons are a little young for paintball yet… but sooner or later they’ll […]

It’s a Long Way Down

Comments Off on It’s a Long Way Down
I absolutely LOVE travel (I do have a travel blog, remember!). I also love motorcycles! AND I also love Obi Wan Kenobi- er, Ewan McGregor. He has a totally cool accent (it IS Scottish, after all!). Well, what do you get when you mix these three things together? Ewan McGregor’s Long Way Down. It’s the […]
The Nice Thing About Staying Up…
July 22, 2008
…all night is that I am the first to leave a comment on many of the blogs. Don’t know why I couldn’t sleep a wink last night. May be the medicine I’m taking. The sun is up and so am I, still. Sigh.


Life is never dull, and exciting things just seem to always happen to me... why me... when I'm not running around the house fixing things, I'm a freelance writer for national media outlets like USAToday.com, Salon.com, and others. I've even been interviewed by TIME and The Wall Street Journal about blogging. Can you believe it?! Here is where I express my zany, creative, motherly side.
