Birthdays freak me out because of the general expectation that one should celebrate, the anguished analysis of what happened (or did not happen) the year before, and the stressful task of looking ahead and trying to figure out realistically how many years you have left in your life to ‘make it’. Plus, I always hadContinue reading “One: happy birthday redlipstickmama”

Don’t touch, it’s my ‘zizi’
Preliminary note: if adult themes make you uncomfortable, you might want to skip this one. G, P and L, if this blog is still up and running when you can read, definitely skip this one! Two things make me shriek, turn red, and want to disappear forever: porn movies and masturbation. I have never watchedContinue reading “Don’t touch, it’s my ‘zizi’”
We are legal
‘Things have come to a pretty pass Our romance is growing flat, For you like this and the other While I go for this and that, Goodness knows what the end will be Oh I don’t know where I’m at It looks as if we two will never be one Something must be done’ LouisContinue reading “We are legal”
Working mama: Emily
From time to time, when the endless reworking of my resume is getting too depressing I entertain myself with the idea that one day I’ll make money by offering accessories to make women feel strong and fabulous. More realistic goal is to keep creating, I guess. This post found on the blog laptop on theContinue reading “Working mama: Emily”
Vacation in the Green Mountain State
Vacation is often nice because it is when you relax and you let go of your every day teething problems, when it is actually OK not to shower every day and when sweat pants do not mean being a slob but a laid back girl. It also often breaks the Ugly-you free… . All inContinue reading “Vacation in the Green Mountain State”
R.I.P my closet, I am out
Last week, I came out as a neuro-mama-blogger. Not only I came out but I also used Facebook to do it so I could win a blogger competition. Tacky, right? Absolutely tacky and I did not even win. The good point is that now everyone knows. Everyone except my in-laws. I am not sure thatContinue reading “R.I.P my closet, I am out”
Mood of the day: Blanc
Saturday was an odd combination of ‘oh yeah’, ‘oh no’ and ‘what the hell???’ The snow everyone has been waiting for since December has finally arrived. I expected to be underwhelmed here in Harlem because we have been pretty spared by Irene and Frankestorm. It is like living in a little island. However, the waitContinue reading “Mood of the day: Blanc”
Out of the mouth of Babes
Children at an early age often talk crap. To start with, they repeat every single thing you say just to piss you off, they say NO when they actually would like to say yes, they repeat the same thing over and over again etc. You just wish that the latest idiom they are obsessed aboutContinue reading “Out of the mouth of Babes”
Fashion babbling: the challenge – episode 3
The verdict day has arrived. If you expected the conclusion to be like a feel good American movie when the social misfit has a standing ovation or the ugly girl next doors is metamorphosed into a Elite agency model and bags the IT boy, you will be highly disappointed.I have not won my challenge: IContinue reading “Fashion babbling: the challenge – episode 3”
Is it serious, Doc?
L is having his 9 months doctor’s visit today. Taking the kids to their pediatrician’s is a pain. Taking the kids to their pediatrician’s when it is snowing and the stroller is broken is just hell. L, wearing 4 layers of warm clothing, is strapped to me in a baby carrier while I am wearingContinue reading “Is it serious, Doc?”
