Grow-a-Brain is a daily themed, eclectic blog. Basically, sending you to some of the weirdest, wildest and funniest stuff on the internet. Not […]
The sad, lonely life of a mom’s coffee cup
I feel sorry for my coffee cup. I do. Here…I’ll show you why.

Friday five: Jane Austen & Friends
1) Get your daily dose at Jane Austen Quote of the Day. 2) To continue the age-old debate, Colin Firth or Matthew MacFayden, which is the real (better) Mr. Darcy? The Jane Austen Movie Club.

Happy Cinco De Mayo from The Three Amigos
Internet Intervention
I had to do it. They pushed me to it. I was drowning in social networking sites, instant messaging, handheld devices and emails.
