I couldn't really watch all of Grey's Anatomy last night, once I saw that tiny "micro-preemie" baby.In fact, any time they have a show with one of those kids as a large part of the episode, I can't watch.Maybe it's ridiculous after all this time, but all it takes is a few minutes of seeing one of those little one-pounders to make me feel right back there in the NICU.After 17 years, it still seems like yesterday, like last night, like an hour ago.  Read more >

Yesterday was the dreaded IEP meeting for my son - actually, mine are pretty okay. He's in the multiple-disability class you know, so it's always pretty much the same. The goals are simple: matching words to objects, putting blocks in a bucket, tolerating the stander for 45 minutes at a time, choosing the letters of his name and stamping his name on paper. Really the only thing that ever changes is the percentage of times he's expected to get the task correct.   Read more >

About Me: 

I'm a single mother with 16 year old boy/girl twins. My son is severely disabled, but we don't really notice that much anymore. Music lover, bibliophile, closet anglophile. I blog a cornucopia of tiny thought snippets, along with the occasional righteous rant. People tell me that I make them laugh--even when I don't mean to. I also host a weekly live internet radio show.

Come and visit me: The Daily Bitch. It's brain soup for the dysfunctional soul. Like chicken soup, only...not.
