and all through the blog, not a Bethy was stirring, ‘cuz she was too busy learning to salsa dance on her vacation in Mexico. Or perhaps it’s merengue today. Or maybe yoga on the beach. Whatever it is she’s up to, she’s not here blogging. She did, however, leave this link for you today. It’s […]
She’s probably lounging on the beach right at this very moment. It’s probably 30 degrees in Los Cabos. And she left you and me stuck here in freezing cold Canada1. Hmph. Anyway, she left you this link for today: The Periodic Table of Awesoments Like the periodic table of elements, only awesomer. Beth especially likes […]

Plane tickets have recently turned mega-cheap, so my sister booked a flight for me to go to T.O. for my niece’s birthday weekend in November. Madeline is turning 4 when, apparently, she is going to be a big girl. And have a pig-themed party. So excited!
While waiting for *4 hours*1 for my flight home from SFO yesterday, during which I was (a) Twittering with another BlogHer attendee who was also stuck at SFO, (b) talking on Skype, and (c) being looked at like I was crazy because I was talking loudly to my computer, I was also checking out whether […]
