In Celebration of the Outstretched Paw
May 18, 2010
I saw this at Sparkle’s blog: In Celebration of the Outstretched Paw. Wow! I’m glad Sparkle is so knowledgeable about all the holidays for cats; I had no idea there was such an endless stream of holidays and celebrations for my favorite animal! I thought my Cat, Livvy, would want to participate in today’s meme. […]

Trouble Sleeping? Do You Use Computer at Night?
May 16, 2010
I have often wondered about this: Trouble sleeping? Maybe it’s your iPad (CNN) — J.D. Moyer decided recently to conduct a little experiment with artificial light and his sleep cycle. The sleep-deprived Oakland, California, resident had read that strong light — whether it’s beaming down from the sun or up from the screens of personal […]

I’m keeping my eyes peeled for a new camera (since my old, refurbished one is showing signs of lens problems), and spotted this Polaroid t833 Digital 8MP point and shoot camera. It’s WATERPROOF! And it’s on sale for $99! This is part of the Buy.com weekly sale, so if you want it, you’d better act […]
WFW: The Ten Suggestions and Other Hints From God
May 12, 2010
There are three families, all living within the same neighborhood. The first child continually steals from his parents. This greatly annoys the parents and causes the other children to suffer lack of food and basic needs. They scold him and whack him for stealing; they threaten him with severe punishment if they catch him doing […]
Cat, Clear Your Plate!
May 11, 2010
I staggered in to the kitchen this morning, my nose following the delicious scent of coffee that The Hubs had got going (he IS a doll). He was up before me, so Livvy (our cat) jumped out of bed and followed him down the stairs to the cat food area. By the time I crawled […]
For the Gift-Giving Challenged
May 11, 2010
This is a Sponsored Post written by me on behalf of FriendGiftr. All opinions are 100% mine. That would be me. No, it’s not just the men who have severe handicaps when it comes to selecting gifts. Some of us women are plagued with it, too. Maybe it’s my upbringing. Parties and gifts were just […]

Comments Off on Yay for Kim Komando!
Kim Komando, one of my early mentors into computer geekdom, is now making videos. And I am really pleased to see her address the problems of unConstitutional violations of our rights by the government. In this video, she discusses that the government can and will search and seize any of our electronic data when we […]
For the Power Hungry
May 10, 2010
I went to Buy.com to search for various stuff (we’re renovation the kitchen, so I’m keeping my eyes peeled on their weekly sale flyer) and spotted this honking baby. WHOA. I didn’t even know they were making quad-core Core i7 processors… didn’t they just release the Core i6 a few months ago?! I love a […]


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.
