Welcome back ESPN Radio!
I was so completely bummed when all the radio switching went on and 1330, the FAN, picked up what used to be Froggy and dropped ESPN Radio. Since I am not an Imus fan (Though sometimes I listen to him. It depends on the topic being discussed), I usually listen to Mike & Mike in [...]
Winter Fest fun!
I took the boys to Winter Fest in Frontier Park today. It was a lot of fun. I really hope they keep doing this. There were hundreds of people there! There was a lot of sledding/snowboarding, hot cocoa, an ice castle complete with ice slide, fire barrels to warm up by, and music. I took [...]
Road Runner says “Beep, Beep”
DH and I went out last night to celebrate my birthday. We had a lot of fun. Dinner first, then we decided to bypass a movie and head to Molly Brannigan’s to hang out with some friends. As much as I love movies, I was dying for some interaction with people over the age of [...]

Interesting. How twisted do you have to be to give your dog beer?  Is there really a market for this sort of thing? Out of the Netherlands: After a long day hunting, there’s nothing like wrapping your paw around a cold bottle of beer. So Terrie Berenden, a pet shop owner in the southern Dutch town [...]
Blue Monday
Today has been deemed the most depressing day of the year. In 2005, a psychologist by the name of Cliff Arnall announced that he had devised a formula that would calculate the worst day of the year. That year, it was January 24th, and last year it was January 23rd (both Monday’s, btw). Here is the formula with which he calculates [...]
SUPER BOWL 41, HERE WE COME!

Now this is love!
This was on MSN’s homepage today. Wow! I love football, and I love my husband, but I don’t think I’d do the same thing this woman did! Chicago school teacher Colleen Pavelka knows how much her husband loves the Bears. Apparently, she loves him even more. Colleen chose to have the birth of their second [...]
Happy Birthday to me
My birthday is Monday. I find that I don’t look forward to my birthdays as much as I used to. As far as I’m concerned, they are just another day. Monday will be no milestone, as I only turn 27. Maybe I’ll feel differently about my birthday when I turn 30? I doubt it, but [...]
