I was recently having dinner with friends and we commented how the scandals surrounding presidencies have changed over time. It went from no pot, to not inhaling, to DUIs or I did a little blow. And we laughed about how future pundits towards the middle of the century will be commenting on how strange and secretive the new president must be because she didn't post nude photos of herself on MySpace as a teenager.

I don't just write for fun. I actually do it for a living. I'm happy to note that writing for a living hasn't prevented me from wanting to write for fun - as was always my big fear. In fact, the nature of the writing I do for a living makes it *imperative* that I write for fun. I need to be able to forget the rules, cease angsting* about typos and avoid sending things out for approval before I can take the next step. It's liberating to just spew my thoughts, tickle the ivories of the English language and post the resulting smorgasbord of silliness for the world to see.

 We're knee deep in potty training right now, but we've faced some hurdles.  Jonas doesn't mind going to the potty, but as soon as he sits down he wants to get right back up.  If we tried to keep him sitting there, that would start a fight, and the last thing I want to do is fight around the potty. So a friend suggested that we give him some books or candy... anything we can do to keep him occupied so he sits there long enough to pee (or poop.)  Last night I decided that's what we'd do, and I wanted to make a big production out of it too (the way I normally like to do things.)

  Ok, it is just this simple,  have a simple syrup made and keep it in your fridge and you can make anything, from a fabulous champagne punch, to mojitos, frozen spiked lemon or lime 'ades.  I use this year round.  use even proportions, such as 1/2 cup sugar to 1/2 cup water or more depending on how many drinks you will be making.  I keep mine in the fridge for upto a week or more.  It is great in the summer, I only like drinking homemade lemonade

Nos, most végre találtam egy rendes csajblogot, kipróbálom hát, mennyire is csajos. Máshol csak a design csajos (csak volt, mert túlontúl rózsaszín) - a téma már nem kifejezetten, itt viszont úgy látom, hogy minden. Nos, egyelőre ennyi, még kitapasztalom milyen is ez, átnézem a topicokat, aztán írogatok. Talán a hajbalzsamokról, de az is lehet, hogy a wellnessről.
