Posted on January 5th, 2009 | 8 comments

The holidays are over, and it’s back to the grind – for most. As a single parent blogger, I’m choosing to extend my leave one more day. (Okay, I admit that’s a lie. I’ve actually been working my ass off all through the break. I’m giving myself a one-day break! Ah, the life of a [...]

I had a great date Thursday night. No, I’m not giving details! Dad’s House has a no kiss-and-tell policy. Unless the date is crazy and bad, in which case I’ll never see the woman again… Then I tell, whether we kiss or not! And like I said, I’m not telling, so it must not have [...]

Amidst the hoopla of the Democratic National Convention’s history-making nomination of Barack Obama as the first African-American presidential candidate on a major party ticket, several Clintons made their voices heard.
There was a wonkish and funny Bill (who I shook hands with in 1992) heartily endorsing Obama.

YouTube – It’s Getting Hot in Here

Unbelievable! What kind of a parent gives their kid a video camera and editing tools, and lets them create a youtube video like this?
