Tiller at Music Program
May 21, 2010"Tiller had her music program today. I was on the verge of tears the whole time. I sat over on the side, but about three rows back from the altar, and she ended up standing on the very end, closest to me, and she knew exactly where I was, because i happened to sit right [...]"
Full House

April 03, 2010"Also, I would just like to say, on behalf of Dekalb citizens and taxpayers, parents, students, and teachers, WHAT THE FUCK? You can’t even get it together and make a decision? What a waste of everyone’s time! Share/Save"

Fun stuff like oil change, kid drop off and pickup, dry cleaning, canvassing the n’hood while getting a “run” in (it felt like some kind of Survivor challenge, where you had to put the flyer in each mailbox in the fastest time. Lots of run, stop, run, [...]"

I was skeptical at first about a bunch of suburban women sitting around throwing dice and drinking wine, visions of 1950s Bridge Clubs, cucumber sandwiches and petit-fours in my head, but I love my Bunco group. We had Bunco last night. It is usually on a Thursday, but this month, we [...]"
