A sign I’m really fitting into this SAHM role

March 2, 2008

I just issued a directive to my husband but called him by my son’s name. Clearly, I’m spending too much time at home.  Or, that I’m finally turning into my mother. I gotta do something about that. p.s. I’m so excited because I’m interviewing someone famous tomorrow about something pretty cool! Stay tuned – it’s [...]

Bust out the pepto, Katie’s getting all political on us

February 11, 2008

I rarely get political on this blog, but Katie Couric’s 60 Minutes interview last night with Hillary Clinton has made me crawl out from under my keep-my-mouth-shut-about-all-things-political bunker. Uhm, what was up with that? Hil + KC = BFF I felt like I was watching a Barbara Walters Oscar special, not a serious interview with a candidate [...]

Cashmere Mafia wraps itself in annoying stereotypes

January 10, 2008

Last night, my husband suggested that we watch the show Cashmere Mafia again.  I know he’s trying to be supportive about my transition out of the workforce, and truthfully, I’d be the last person to turn down an offer to watch cheesy girlie shows with her very straight husband.

September 23, 2007

Even though I haven’t posted here in awhile, I have been keeping up on some interesting developments across the blogosphere.   I’ve been following this story on the new mom who was denied a longer break during her medical licensing exam so that she could pump breast milk for her infant daughter.   Apparently judges in Massachusetts are ignoring [...]

Fastest way back onto the on-ramp

August 5, 2007

I couldn’t believe this “working mom” story when I read it: ”Torres sets record in 50 freestyle.”  Yes – the same Dana Torres that I remember watching swim when I was younger (a LOT younger.)  She’s back in action, breaking her American record in the 50-meter freestyle this weekend.  Did I mention that she’s 40 years old?  [...]

Back to work

July 24, 2007

That title get you? Did you actually think I meant that I was going to start working instead of blogging? Ha! No seriously.  I looked back at some of my recent posts and realized I’ve taken a bit of a vacation from writing about what really gets me going – the ups and downs of working motherhood (with a bit [...]

“Knocked Up” knocks around stereotypes

June 11, 2007

In the movie, “Knocked Up” (which I saw over the weekend) the main character, a woman in her early twenties, happens to get pregnant accidentally. (Warning, plot spoiler ahead.)  She’s also very career-focused, saying she didn’t envision having a baby “for another 10 years.” (I’ll save that for another blog topic.)  In fact, when she was eight [...]

The Mommy Wars move onto the tennis courts

May 10, 2007

I’m back from the ‘burbs, finally, and it’s back to writing about work-related stuff.  At least for a little while. That’s why when I arrived home last night, my husband made me read this article about female tennis players “opting out” of tennis at a young age. (Unfortunately, you have to subscribe to The New York Times [...]
