A quick note before we hit the road
I’m starting this post with a long, dramatic, heartfelt sigh. You Guys, this is it. I just mailed our change of address forms at the post office, and when I handed my stuff to the clerk, I said, “It’s been really great coming to this post office,” and he goes, “What?” and I go, “This post [...]
2 Dorks with a side of Lame
On the phone with bff Tina: bff: So where are you going to live? Me: A place called Hamden, it’s like 15 minutes outside of New Haven. bff: HAMden? HA! Do they eat a lot of HAM there? *** Later, on the phone with The Boss: Me: What street do I turn on? Him: Turn [...]
Happy Eid(!) part deux
The Boss and I were talking the other day about why so many people seem to have no idea when the second Eid (Eid-al-Adha) comes around. It feels (to us) like everyone is surprised by its arrival even though it’s exactly two months and 10 days after Eid-ul-Fitr, which is the holiday marking the end [...]
My new nemesis
Over the weekend, The Boss and I went running on the beach where we saw Allyson Felix training! and also where I had to come to terms with the fact that on Muscle Beach, I looked like the Pillsbury Dough Boy — I didn’t help my case either, having single-handedly eaten 20 mini donuts about [...]
And the planning begins
Me: I thought I’d check the weather for our potential stops so we know what to pack. We should probably have jackets or sweatshirts handy since the further east we go the colder it gets. Him: Well, I don’t think it’s the further east, I think it’s the further north. Me: Really? I don’t think [...]

It took a few days of thought and prayer to pick a winner, but we’re really happy with the place we’ve chosen. I feel so relieved and thankful that this is done. Now, boxes are starting [...]
And then the tables turned
I got back to L.A. yesterday afternoon to a blissfully clean house and a box of cinnamon sugar donuts (courtesy of the man I married) both of which made the mucus in my chest feel more bearable until I decided to drink two glasses of milk — something that my childhood pediatricians advised never to [...]

On Newlyweds-Dish: Happy Mother's Day!
“Man in the early times was almost naked, and as his intellect evolved he started wearing clothes. What I am today and what I’m wearing represents the highest level of thought and civilization that man has achieved, and is not regressive.
