“You are a Mean Mommy.” Next to “I Hate You”, who doesn’t want to hear that as a mom. My daughter announced this to me recently, after I raised my voice at her about not doing something. I say raising my voice, and my daughter’s interpretation is that I am yelling. After I “yelled” at […]

Your Mom Is A Lesbian – Bullying Tales from Grade School
For the record, I am not a Lesbian. This reminds of a scene from Four Weddings and A Funeral (if you haven’t seen it, rent it, truly funny) that best explains my situation.

Spanish artist Miquel Barcelo ” Gran Elefandret” Sculpture is an amazing 26 foot, 5 ton sculpture in Union Square.
