Do You Want to Swap Your iPhone?

07/30/2007

Even thought I don’t personally own an iPhone, my husband has graced me with the pleasure of using his on occasion (assuming my hands are clean with no residue that would require excessive cleansing of the screen). Today, I saw for the first time the iPhone’s big competitor, the chocolate by Verizon. I mean, check Read More

Please Forgive!

07/26/2007

I have just committed a horrible blogging crime. See, I started a bunch of blogs and then saved them as drafts and then got busy with stitches and traveling and all kinds of stuff. So, they didn’t get finished… until today. But, my sin exists in keeping all of the original dates from when I Read More

Which to Choose?

07/26/2007

I recently agreed to do an e-Rewards program where I fill out occasional surveys and then receive free stuff and “cash” that I can spend at stores. On my second survey, they were gathering information about how I use the web, and I was given this question: Gee. Do all of those search sites still Read More

Sesame Street Gold

07/25/2007

Josh had been talking about ways to connect with the baby. With today’s Dora the Explorer, Elmo’s World, etc., I think Josh was questioning how he would be able to connect with these. That was before I struck gold. I think we may get a bunch of the characters in the “mini-plush.” Even if we Read More

No Baby Yet?

07/24/2007

Today, THREE PEOPLE on three separate occasions have seen me around town and said something like, “No baby yet?” or “Must be any day now,” or “I thought you’d have a baby by now.” HELLO!?!?!?!?!?! I have eight weeks left until my due date! And even worse, ALL THREE PEOPLE followed up their statements with Read More

Stereotyping British Nannies

07/02/2007

I was at Starbucks the other day and there was a stout British woman at the counter arguing over whether her coffee should be $2.50 or $2.55. She had a thick British accent and a no-nonsense attitude about her. She had a put-together, yet slightly disheveled look in her short sleeve collared shirt and vest. Read More

Rockabye Baby! Literally.

07/01/2007

I was looking around the iTunes store for good lullaby music for babies, and was quite disturbed/intrigued/confused/interested/befuddled/amused by the Rockabye Baby! albums. These albums are basically lullaby versions of albums by popular artists. Here are the artists featured: U2, The Beatles, Radiohead, Bob Marley, Pink Floyd, Smashing Pumpkins, Led Zeppelin, The Eagles, Coldplay, Tool, The Read More

My Inner Light

06/18/2007

Alison Saar, Sapphire, 1985 Photo taken @ San Jose Museum of Art, December 2006. At the recommendation of my doctor, I took a pre-natal yoga class offered through my medical provider. It’s called Whole Birth Yoga. The main focus of the class was doing yoga poses and learning how to focus and breathe through the Read More
