The Jewish Version of My Mom

My home girl Stephanie in the library at school let me borrow volumes 1 & 2 of Amy's Answering Machine Messages. The hysterical answering machine messages from Amy's overly cautious, borderline schizo mom. The first disk had me laughing so hard yesterday in my car that I was literally in tears. No topic is too taboo for this wonder mom: the weather, common colds, sheep skin condoms, quality Jewish rye bread. For a hearty laugh, you at best be checking it out!

Because I Heart (Parentheses) As Much As The Next Sap On The Street

Hi Gang (or at least the 3.4 people that read this on occasion):

I hope you have all been well. I know, there has been a drought concerning the recent posts on this blog. I apologize for that (but really, who should I be apologizing to?). Anyway, I don't have a good valid excuse for my absentee nature. I had a nice fat holiday break from teaching (you know
the one that I used to get freak nasty pissy about when my teacher friends were maxin & relaxin and I was working the grind at the good old investment company). I hope that santa was kind to you. I got no complaints for the bearded dude this year.
For all of those that are curious about what I was up to, here is a list of some events I am pretty sure many of you cannot lay claim to having partaken in (listed in no particular order of importance):


~ Watched half of season 1 of Dawson's Creek

~ Had horrid food poisoning or stomach flu (still up for debate) that had me laying in the fetal position in my bathroom floor

~ Saw a drag king show

~ Almost adopted a one eyed kitten at the pet store

~ Half ass cleaned my place

I am sure there are more boring details, but nothing is coming to mind at this time...
