I'd like to meet:

John F. Kennedy, Jr., JFK, Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis (no one said the people I'd like to meet had to be living!), Lisa and I'd also like to meet a truly nice guy. Someone who appreciates that there are things in life I'm passionate about, even if he isn't passionate about the same things. Someone with an open mind and who realizes that we both have something to offer to each other. Assuming they actually still exist somewhere in the world. And that they aren't all gay or married...

Music:

The gufs, Ian Hilmer, David Wilcox, Ann Reed, Train, Matchbox twenty, Dazy Head Mazy back in the days of either Sid and Jason or Ben and Jason, Rob Thomas, Benjamin Woolman, Epic Hero, Billy Joel, Elton John, Rod Stewart, Chris Isaak, Tori Amos, Tim McGraw, Barenaked Ladies, They Might Be Giants, Amy Grant, Patty Loveless, Metallica, KISS, Michael W. Smith, John Denver, John Lennon, the Beatles and the most important... the gufs (yes, I know I said that twice)!!! I listen to a little bit of almost everything. I used to be a "band whore" back in the day. Ah, the good old days! I also love musical theater, I've seen "Rent" three times, I loved Donny Osmond in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, and I've seen Cats. There is a huge list of other musicals I'd love to see, as well, including Les Mes and Phantom of the Opera.

Movies:

Anything with Dermot Mulroney in it... my favorites with him are My Best Friend's Wedding, The Family Stone and Point of No Return. Yummy! Also, Sleepless in Seattle, Aladdin, American History X, St. Elmo's Fire, Pretty in Pink (I'm showing my age, huh?), Chasing Amy and Dogma

Television:

I think we have a couple of those, but most of the time, the boys are watching movies. When I do get to watch, I like to catch Ugly Betty and ER. And of course, catch up on my soaps.

Books:

The Celestine Prophecy is a favorite... I'd love to have time to sit and read the DaVinci Code, also. Currently, I'm working my way through the Vince Flynn series. I pretty much like to read anything I can get my hands on, from newspapers, magazines to the back of a cereal box.

Heroes:

My grandma R. Without question. My dad, the dad who raised me. My uncle Pete. My cousin Karen. Sometimes even my brother. And always... my little man.

My Blog

I stand vindicated

For a long time I heard that parents should co-sleep and blah blah blah and how parents who don't co-sleep are bad parents.  Well...  clicky clicky!! http://wcco.com/topstories/local_story_...

Co-sleeping

The below article appeared in today's Minneapolis Star Tribune.  I happen to agree that this decision is intensely personal, and I feel that we shouldn't beat each other over the head and try to ...

My boo has been gone since Sunday.  My daycare provider is on vacation, so my dad very nicely took a week off of work to watch Lukas this week.  And I miss him terribly!!!  Holy crap, t...

Speechless

Last night when I picked Lukas up at daycare, there was a pall over the house.  That's when I was told that the baby in daycare is currently on life support at Children's Hospital.  He "stop...

Stupidity

Is this world getting dumber or is it just me?? I realize that I'm kind of pissy today, so things are just a little bit more magnified for me.  BUT... I'll say it anyway. First, some of the roads...

No family should ever go through this

But we sit as observers this time as another family goes through the pain and misery and agony we went through.  Saturday evening, a guy in a town about 8 miles from my parents house went on a r...

And now, the rest of the story...

Okay, so my now ex didn't even show up to court today, not that I figured he would, but you would think someone who spewed threats at me on and off for three and a half years would show up at court, b...
