Ahh...Wednesday night. After another rough day of work and dealing with the kids and the house, I often look forward to Wednesday night comedy. Call me a daft idiot, but after a day of wracking my brains and catering to everyone else's whim, for some reason, an evening dumbly watching ...

I thought this day would never arrive...it's like Christmas has come early. Yes, folks I'm talking about the impending arrival of the infamous SNL inspired Schweddy Balls ice cream. For years, I've laughed wholeheartedly at this skit, created more than a decade ago during one of Alec Baldwin's hosting gigs. ...

I've never been one to leave my children on the first day of school sobbing. I know that sounds strange, especially since most of my friends are crying and sad, but I've always dropped them off, kissed them goodbye and ran so fast you could see small tornadoes of dust ...

I let my 13 year old son dye his hair blue over the weekend. I've never taken issue with wild hair or crazy clothing. For example, my daughter left the house this afternoon wearing a plaid skirt, tie-dye tank top and silver sparkly shoes.

When my son started middle school two years ago we were introduced to the school's online grade reporting system called Pinnacle.

I wonder if grown-ups have overtaken Halloween because it's their (our) one chance to get a pass on acting insane. Seriously, when else can you leave the house wearing a vampire costume with blood dripping down your chin? Not often.

For those of you with little ones, enjoy these precious innocent moments. Sure you are up to your eyeballs in sippy cups and baby food but this afternoon I had a reminder about how complicated the teen years have become.
My children, age 9 and 13, are going back to school ...
