No man likes his wife to boss him around.  Period.  They hate that. Don’t do it. In public it’s brutal to watch, and in the privacy of your home it’s just counterproductive. A husband will instinctually tune out the rest of any sentence starting with “Today, will you…”   Your normal guy would rather stare hard and long at […]

  Normally, a trip to Target holds about as much romantic sentiment as a ZZ Top song, but not yesterday.   When I was browsing the cosmetic aisle yesterday I came across an unlikely scene.   There was this big, scruffy looking guy in a Steelers' Jersey on his phone, facing the mascara section, talking to his wife.  This […]

Lately I've been thinking a lot about the movie Ice Castles and Robby Benson.   I was trying to tell my husband about how much this movie touched little 12-year-old me.  I told him about how Robby Benson really loved his girlfriend and how he taught her how to skate again after she went blind. […]

  (My daughter's roller skates.) Don't miss the OC RollerGirls this Saturday night in Huntington Beach. No one does roller derby like those phenomenal brats skating for The OC Roller Girls.  You can get your tickets by clicking, here.  Haven't been to a roller derby bout before (awww, poor thing)? Watch my video from last year's "Suburban Assault":  A […]

I spotted this at the cosmetic counter of Bloomingdales over the holidays. The Benefit's Justine Case Overnighter Kit is for that quaint "unexpected sleepover."  Um, ewww!   Never before has trampy tried so hard to be clever, cutesy, and efficient. The idea is you can pack this little kit in your Juicy bag (just guessing) and "just in case" you find […]

**Sort of.  When I started to compile this list I thought it would be easy.  "The 10 all-time best make out songs, ever?"  No problem.   But, then, after firmly placing three songs on the list, the task became overwhelming to me. The gravity and importance of the chore became more than I could handle alone. So […]

(Ericka and Jill at the Ducks game on Tuesday night) I took my girlfriends, Jill & Ericka, to the Ducks game last week.  We have shared season tickets and the same usual suspects surrounding us at every game we attend  (except this mean guy who made fun of me–remember him? He was a onetime deal).  […]

I’m not a snow person.  I can count on one hand how many times I’ve been in the snow.  I’m firmly a California Coast girl–born in Orange County and attending college in San Francisco.   I don’t have much snow cred and frankly, that’s okay with me. Here I am in the snow in Palm […]
