Reacting to Reactions
Big news on the social media front, folks! In case you haven’t heard, yesterday Facebook introduced its highly anticipated Reactions. In a status update on his own page, Mark Zuckerberg described Reactions as “the new Like button with more ways to express yourself.” This is great news to me, at least, because I’ve always felt that the roughly 6,500 […]
Stop everything and do this right now.
Step one: cue up “Just Like Heaven” by The Cure. Here’s the link to it on YouTube. Step two: watch the Swedish Chef dance the boogie. Happy Thursday, everyone.
It’s All In the Timing
I learn new things every day. For instance, today I learned that we have not yet reached that point where we can laugh about that penny she accidentally swallowed last August. Nope. Definitely not a thing to bring up jocularly while playing the Sheriff Callie matching game. Duly noted.
Come See Me at Press Publish!

I guess I make New Years resolutions now.
So I did some math this morning. Don’t worry; I didn’t sprain my brain too badly. I got out the ol’ abacus AKA my fingers and determined that since it is now 2015 and I graduated from high school at the age of 18 in 2000, I have now been an adult for 15 years. […]
