smab_mouth: The Rockets--Did You Know They Glare? Menacingly?
http://smabmouth.blogspot.com/2008/07/rockets-did-you-know-they-glare.html
Saturday, July 05, 2008. The Rockets- Did You Know They Glare? When I grew up, the Fourth of July meant slurping homemade peach ice cream and hanging out at the neighbors' pool until one of them got too drunk and threatened to throw my mom into the deep end, which was our signal to pack it up and head home. (When I think back, I seem to also remember a bowl of keys? I wonder . . . ). This Fourth of July was a departure from what Carrie and Ricky. I don't think my family every really did anything spectacu...

smab_mouth: To Finn, on his first day of kindergarten
http://smabmouth.blogspot.com/2008/08/to-finn-on-his-first-day-of.html
Monday, August 18, 2008. To Finn, on his first day of kindergarten. About two hours ago, I abandoned you in your kindergarten classroom. I walked you to your room and eased you into the classroom filled to fire hazard with five-year-olds, their parents, and more cameras- video, digital, cell phone- than an AARP tour group on a whale watching cruise. Then I blew you a kiss, swallowed yours, and booked it out the door so you wouldn't see my inevitable and long-postponed (and planned) breakdown. But kinderg...

smab_mouth: Of Puppies and Pomodoro
http://smabmouth.blogspot.com/2009/01/of-puppies-and-pomodoro.html
Monday, January 26, 2009. Of Puppies and Pomodoro. We looked at puppies yesterday. Yes, on purpose. The Dog Discussion has been in the works for a while now. Finn wants one- that's no surprise- and we've been stalling. Finn: We could call her Finn! Me: That would be confusing . . . Finn: How about Bouncey? Me: Absolutely not . . . Finn: I know, we'll call her Sushi! Except when we make sushi for dinner, she'll think we're going to eat her! Cue irrepressible giggles.). Cioppino, courtesy of Rachel Ray.

smab_mouth: We got a puppy.
http://smabmouth.blogspot.com/2009/02/we-got-puppy.html
Tuesday, February 03, 2009. We got a puppy. Last week, Finn and I decided we needed to go back for another look at the dogs. After about an hour, we walked out with Edwidge, our new cairpoo puppy. Yes, we ambushed Bear. Yet again, we probably should've talked this through with people in the know before we jumped in blind. But that's just the way love is. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

smab_mouth: Why I Wasn't at My 20th High School Reunion
http://smabmouth.blogspot.com/2008/07/why-i-wasnt-at-my-20th-high-school.html
Tuesday, July 29, 2008. Why I Wasn't at My 20th High School Reunion. I'm sorry I missed you last Friday. I'd like to say it couldn't be avoided- that I live too far away or I had a previous commitment or I'm buried in work or that I'm too cheap to book a flight back to my hometown. But those wouldn't be the truth (although the third is nearly literal and the fourth is a close approximation, except for those burgeoning frequent flier miles I have). I've often thought ala Richard Bach. Have kids early and ...

smab_mouth: Here Begins the Era of Ham
http://smabmouth.blogspot.com/2009/01/here-begins-era-of-ham.html
Monday, January 19, 2009. Here Begins the Era of Ham. So, for those of you who tripped into this blog looking for the son of Noah and the father of Canaan, keep surfing. The "ham" I'm talking about belongs to the unapologetically undignified and hypertheatrical Five, which, in loose Biblical interpretation and delightful analogy, could be just what you're looking for after all.). We have determined that these aren't originals. How? We narrowed down the list of suspects to the folks he shares kindergarten...

smab_mouth: Because You, Internet, Are Nothing If Not Thorough.
http://smabmouth.blogspot.com/2008/06/because-you-internet-are-nothing-if-not.html
Friday, June 20, 2008. Because You, Internet, Are Nothing If Not Thorough. Okay So I may have caused a mini panic in my two readers by my last couple of enigmatic posts. Some have you have trolled my archives and wonder if the Event of Which I Must Not Speak is somehow related to things that start with the letter C. No, my limited readership, I am in good health and my unwillingness to share things personal with you (what? Engrave that on a candy heart. No, good things are lined up for us, reader 1 and r...

smab_mouth: So . . . where have you been?
http://smabmouth.blogspot.com/2009/01/so-where-have-you-been.html
Friday, January 23, 2009. So where have you been? Yeah, I know it's been a long time since I posted anything here. Just shy of six months. And I honestly thought I might get away with just sneaking back in, dropping a post, and scooching out quietly . Then Carie, that dutiful yet lovely blogger of good hair. So here I am, 'splaining myself. I really have you to blame. You, and your contagious obsession with Facebook. I suppose that's something. Labels: Better out than In. No One Reads This Blog Anyway.
