Every year, Ellen hosts a special Mother’s Day show for first time Moms. (The pic above is from last year’s show, and that beautiful little girl just so happens to be Jett, my friend Cindy’s daughter.) It’s like Oprah’s favorite things, but with awesome baby crap. Well…this year, I’m a first time Mom, and when I heard that she was… Read more →

Pop goes the Belly.
So, last night I sit down to watch LOST (which is just SO good right now) and when I get up…something has changed. My stomach has literally doubled in size. I had been experiencing some pretty intense upper abdominal pain, almost as if I had done hundreds of crunches (as if I have any idea what doing HUNDREDS of crunches… Read more →

Happy Cinco De Mayo
I won’t be enjoying a margarita tonight (and I think I’m gonna skip the chips too, seeing as I’m still a little skeeved out by the fact that I mindlessly munched on communal public chips and Salsa on Saturday Night…and to think I thought it was silly that the president was reminding people to wash their hands…) Anyway…I won’t be… Read more →
Birthright
Saturday night we went to see Scotty’s Uncle Kelly play with his band, Bad Dog, at the St. Francis De Sales carnival. The SFDS carnival stage has seen some pretty classy acts over the years – about a decade ago my bleach blond, spikey haired, leather jacket wearing boyfriend (y’know, basically a parent’s nightmare) took me to see Billy Idol… Read more →
You wanna see it?
It’s pretty small still, but it’s starting to show up. Sometimes I think I could just eat all day. For a former yo-yo dieter like myself, it’s a strange feeling to WANT my belly to get bigger, let alone post a picture of it on the internet. But there it is, in all it’s glory. My 17 week baby… Read more →
Swank-City
I stumbled across these swanky bar stools in modernbangalow’s eBay shop. They break down into shippable size, and the starting bid is only $199. You should snag them so I don’t have to…we’re trying to save for a baby here, people. We have a bar in our house (in a little area just south of the front door that we… Read more →
The case for Law School.
Spending a day on the NYU campus brought back plenty of memories of the good ‘ol days, when my NYU Card was the only currency I needed to worry about, I had a view of the World Trade Center from my twelth floor window on Washington Square Park, and making movies was a given, not a goal. While NYU did… Read more →
They don’t know we know they know.
How I Met Your Mother is hands down my favorite [half hour] show. (Lost is just so damn good this season.) But before I cathartically laughed my way through wedding planning along with Lily and Marshall, and secretly loathed Barney for appropriating my inappropriate over-use of the word “Awesome” I was a loyal FRIENDS fanatic. (I’m not ashamed to say… Read more →
There’s an Alien in my stomach.
It’s a weird feeling, this pregnancy thing. My digestive system is under siege…starting from about week five when I started praying to the porcelain god multiple times a day, and although I’m grateful to report that that initial unpleasant side-effect of pregnancy has subsided, it’s given way to much less discussable symptoms that I’d rather not share here. The infamous… Read more →
