The More Things Change, the More They (Hopefully) Get Better
Do you know what I love about writing and blogging? I mean, other than the fact that sometimes magazine companies send me random subscriptions after I tell them that it’s a violation of WordPress.com’s TOS for me to review products for monetary compensation? That’s pretty great because reading paper magazines makes me feel so 1999 […]
Get comfortable. This is a long one.
I would love nothing more than to be able to have a schedule when it comes to blogging. In my glory days (read: when I first started blogging and this place was all mine because no one was reading it and therefore filters and quality control didn’t really exist. Yeah, maybe “glory” is a little […]
How To Write a Viral Blog Post
There is nothing better than getting the attention you deserve on the Internet. The best way of doing this is by writing a blog post that goes viral. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the term, “viral” means that everyone in the history of the world reads your writing but you still eat […]
Crazy Good Parent
It’s really easy to observe that there is a need for something in the world and then just talk about that need without doing anything effective about it. I’m a blogger, so I see that tendency alive in my life. I can point out the flaws I see in myself and others until I’m blue […]
Remember the Time…we had important news AND a writing prompt?
Good morning, Remember the Timers! (Isn’t that so much better than Nostalgiaphiles?) I know you guys absolutely luuuuuurve tuning in on Monday for these posts where I dictate what you are going to write about this week, but all good elective mandates must come to an end. This is the last Monday RTT post you […]
I’m basically Forrest Gump at the White House.
This is the one where I let you in on the good news I alluded to awhile back. I have been holding it in for awhile because my mom was here last week so I was busy watching her fill C up with candy and taking a nap for once. So while super big news […]
Remember the Time…we got really scared?
You had to have seen this one coming. It’s October, and the stores that know what’s up are stocked with candy and costumes that make even the most innocent objects sultry (sexy paperclip, anyone?). Some stores are already getting ready for Christmas, but this is not the blog that you need to be reading if […]
Let’s celebrate in the best way that I know.
So it’s been a good week. October came and I promptly made about a dozen loaves of pumpkin bread because it is written in the Book of Pin that once fall officially hits, you have to cease with the zucchini bread and transition immediately to pumpkin bread or you will surely have your badge of […]
It’s such a good feeling.
Do you know what I like? I can tell you really want to know, and so I’ll tell you. I like Mr. Rogers. Do you know what else I like? Guest blogging on Kidz Showz. Both are pretty much the best, and this is why I am excited to combine my two loves today. Head […]
Remember the Time…we had that teacher?
If life is a play, then the teachers we’ve known through the years play starring roles. They are sometimes the characters who come into our lives unobtrusively but end up inspiring us to be better people and to look at the world in a whole new light. They do so, miraculously, by illuminating something as […]
