WOAW’s What to Watch- Scandal Update! [Spoiler Alert]
I know I’ve been bombarding you with television and movie stuff, but that seems to be what happens with me when the news is bad. I turn to movies and television. Also, the Knicks are on tonight, and my brain is fried, and I wanted to do a quick, easy post, and I really need Continue reading

The Bechdel Test
My friend and writing partner, Angela, knows lots of stuff in general, but especially about writing. In our writing partnership, I consider her the brains of the operation, while I am just the barfer. I can cough up pages, but she’s the one who cleans the barf, so to speak. Her ability is the result Continue reading

Opera Night
Last night, my husband and I put on our fancy pants and headed to the Opera. The Metropolitan Opera at Lincoln Center, New York City to be exact. I know–first Foxwoods, now this.

Nope, not pregnant and going into labor; rather, my brother is dropping off my sweet little nephew for the weekend. Guilt because it’s Friday Continue reading

Bonkers at Bingo
In addition to tuition for JC’s enrollment in private school, my husband and I are required to accumulate thirty “service points” per year. The school offers many options for obtaining points, but the best “bang for your buck” points-wise, for working parents at least, is to work Bingo. Yes, Bingo. “We” (by that I mean, Continue reading

WOAW’s First Poll- Downton Abbey
I just finished Season One of Downton Abbey on Netflix and I need your help, Blogtropolis. As much as I love our friends on the other side of the Atlantic–as much as I love hats and wish they were in style here in the States–as much as I love London, and Will and Kate, and Continue reading

Odd and Ends
New Jersey gets a bad rap, but there are lots of great things about living here. I hope to dedicate a post to New Jersey eventually. For now, know that one great thing about The Garden State is its proximity to New York City. These pictures were taken from the waiting room of a doctor’s Continue reading
