Too Many Online Friends? Time to Delete. →
You know I have never deleted a friend from FB, although I really, really should. I did, however, accidentally find out that someone had “defriended” or “unfriended” me last week. And I was like, “whaaa?” like actually confused. And then I got it. They don’t want to hear my obnoxious status updates! They don’t want access to my photos of them as...
Babies Know - A Little Dirt Is Good for You →
Lisa G. sent me this link yesterday. And yeah, it made me feel good cos this is definitely how the D-man rolls. I also have always been a firm believer in the whole exposure-to-germs-early-in-life-is-good-for-you. The only moment that I was like, “wait a second, am I deluded?” was when Dev got croup. Ok, I thought that “croup” went out with “scurvy” and...

The Stories Behind 20 Muppet Favorites →
It should be ridiculously apparent that I now watch a lot of baby tv. Well not a lot in scope. A lot of the same damn thing over and over. Lotsa Sesame Street and the same 5 or 6 episodes of Yo Gabba Gabba over and over again.
On a related note, Cecily & Bea got Dev a Broby shirt for his bday and he’s wearing it right now in bed. He wears it every moment he can. He pulls it outta his...

Jim wants me to play on the Wii. This is what it would take. A knitting game.
Maybe Sid Didn't Kill Nancy? →
A modern whodunnit. I personally, never thought Sid did it. I would also like to take this opportunity to cop to having read the book And I Don’t Want to Live This Life no less than 20 times.
My Amazing Alphabet Adventures Custom Book →
Lisa, Tom & Elle got Devlin this personalized book for his bday. Its so incredibly cute. I don’t think he fully appreciates it yet. If you say “Where’s Devlin?” on each page he finds himself, but he’s not like “WOW! I’m in the book!” His father and I on the other hand, just about died over it. Perfect gift for a kiddie.
Curbed: Real World in the Wild, Part II →
I’m catching up on my tv and right at this very moment, I am watching the cast of the Real World Brooklyn…at…drum roll please…MATCHLESS.
I personally banned myself from there years ago, though I periodically stop by to see if I should still 86 myself…answer is always yes.
Ped Egg - As seen on tv →
This thing ROCKS. No joke. I have succumbed, on many a late and/or drunken night, to the tv product. I ordered my share of Steve-O videos. I bought that ghetto “sew your curtains without taking them off the window” gizmo that SUCKED completely. But this egg…this egg is the shit…take my word for it.
Devlin walks to fight MS. →
Yeah, so as many of you may know, Devlin’s Uncle Joe has MS. So we are all going as a family to support Joe and others living with MS by walking in the Annapolis, MD walk. Devlin is, of course, spearheading this mission.
Dev says, “Walk? Joe? Joe? Joe?” grunt “Me walk”
Shouts & Murmurs: Mouse au Vin: Humor: The New... →
Funniest thing I have read in some time. Best part:
I have to dip a little further into the grant money, but we’re able to score some blow by the side of the highway. Once we get back to the lab, we discover it’s baking soda. Louis wants to hunt down the guy and murder him. It takes me, the monkey, and the entire control group of mice to restrain him. Fortunately, the hookers arrive and all is...
$200 Laptops Break a Business Model - NYTimes.com →
This may be a good option for my moms. I just need something for her to email with. Honestly that is ALL she does with the old emac that I got her that is on its way to the computer graveyard. Where do computers go when they die anyway???

Geeky site that I am addicted to. Amongst many, many other not-so-good-for-me sites.
