Among Other Things, Winter Is Now A Stalker
becky | April 28, 2008
It’s snowing. It’s April 28th and it’s snowing. It’s snowing huge flakes of snow. This is not ok. It appears that my letters to winter have done nothing but piss him off to an unprecedented level, that now apparently involves following me from state to state. For that Wisconsin, I am sorry. The one silver [...]
The Land of 10,000 Lakes and a REALLY Good Time
becky | April 27, 2008
This past weekend, Ben and I traveled up to Minneapolis to see some of my college friends. My friends Jen and Clay have a son Jake who is exactly 2 months older than Ben. And he has SUCH cool stuff. It was great fun, despite the rocky beginning. Translation: the Road-Trip-From-HELL. I won’t give you [...]
A Letter To Ben’s Future Wife
becky | April 24, 2008
Dear Future Daughter In Law or Little Becky as we like to call you, (Oh I know you think that it’s really weird but Ben and I think it’s so cute!!!) Hi! How’s it going with my kid? Good huh? Sorry about his really crooked teeth but when he was little it was either buy [...]
My Salute to Earth Day
becky | April 22, 2008
If you do anything in the next 30 days, please watch this movie! I watched it last night and to say I was effected would be putting it mildly. After I turned off all the lights in the house, planned my move to a “Off The Grind” community, wrote a stern letter to Exxon/Mobil and [...]
In Another Country Just 2 1/2 Hours Away
becky | April 21, 2008
*I know this post is long overdue. But between chronicling my amazingly ugly days and destroying my son’s childhood fantasies, I haven’t had time. Last week my mother and I went to Chicago where we celebrated my nephew Mendel’s Upshernish and OY! What a time! It was full of nakhes and mitsve and mishigas! (translation [...]
The Tooth And The Truth Both Came Out
becky | April 19, 2008
Last night after a very fun time at the UW Varsity Band concert (Thank you again Katie for the extra tickets!) Ben and I got home very late. We were both exhausted. But apparently not tired enough for Ben to pull his loose tooth out. Keep in mind this is tooth number 8. For teeth [...]
If You See Me on the Street Today Don’t Give Me Your Spare Change
becky | April 18, 2008
I got to work this morning and innocently went into the bathroom. Just to look in the mirror and realize there was a 50 year old homeless bag lady looking back at me. Which is SO weird because when I left the house this morning I could have sworn I was a GOOOOOD lookin’ 30 [...]
The Rude Awakening
becky | April 17, 2008
Spring is here and with it comes reality. All that winter has masked, Spring unveils. The snow melts and all the sudden you find that mitten you lost in January. On come the t-shirts and lo and behold there is all that fat above your elbows you conveniently covered with the winter sweaters and forgot [...]
Lost 4 pounds and 2 sizes
becky | April 15, 2008
My little guy has some serious hair. You would have thought I mated with a horse, as his hair is almost the consistency of a mane. It is crazy thick. I could bet all the money I had that every time we get his hair cut, the stylist will say something to the effect of [...]
