UPDATE: I’m now booking guest posts into the second half of 2013. See below if interested! RAMBLING and PREAMBLING When I turned on my laptop this morning, I was greeted by this notice: It’s a bit like being pregnant: I’m not sure if 100 days is long or short. It’s roughly equivalent to one trimester […]

Top 10 Signs That Mom Needs a Vacation: guest post
I am more delighted than a teacher on a snow day to have one of my besties, Elena Aitken, guest posting here today. Together with Trish Loye and I, Elena completes the Wordbitches trio. We’re also part of the same writing group. Elena is a kick-a$$ writer who’s very successful on the Indie scene (People, […]
The Day I Met David Hasselhoff (and had a cameo on Baywatch): a guest post
I’m more pleased than a dog with a T-bone to have Kevin Haggerty guest posting here today. I met Kevin a few months ago. I connected with him immediately because he’s a middle school teacher, a writer, and a basketball coach who “loves” the NCAA women’s game.* Although Kevin writes mostly humor at his blog (The […]
When You Take Your Twins To Church…
I’m guest posting for my fab and sassy blog-sistah, Tamara Lunardo. Tamara is an amazing woman who writes beautifully about edgy issues, including sex, faith, and abuse. She’ll make you think. She’ll make you laugh. She also has twins and loves a juicy double entendre; I don’t think it’s cause and effect. Today, I’m honoured […]
A Letter from China
Today, I’m posting a letter from one of my online male friends. My husband calls them my American-men-with-weird-names. There’s Clay, Chase, and Knox. And there’s Mihael. Mihael (or Michael as I call him – the invisible “c” is not silent in Canada) is likely the person I’ve been connected with the longest on Twitter. We […]
What To Do with a Dead Chicken

In her free time, she runs marathons, eats sushi, enjoys CrossFit, takes pictures, and tries new things. She also is an undertaker of chickens. All […]
Lessons From Cyber-Pet Ownership
If you read Monday’s post, you know that when William and Vivian asked for a pet, I lied. It my brand of parenting: say something I’m bound to regret. Renée A. Schuls-Jacobson, however, handled this question (and all other questions, I suspect) much better. She even managed to get some cyber-gore. I am incredibly honoured […]
I Am the DH: Being Married to Ironic Mom (Part I)
A couple of days ago, I asked my husband if he wanted to guest post, which in retrospect was akin to asking a pyromaniac if he wanted to play with a box of matches. My husband is the man who brought you the term “sniper fire” (referring to the speed at which beginner ice skaters […]
