Meanwhile
I see I have been remiss in linking to my Wonderland posts, so let's get right on that. Last week I discussed whether life in the city or the suburbs is better for kids; the week before, I talked about the daily-sex-advocates featured in the New York Times. Things are really heating up over there.
As for over here, one of my lovely readers suggested that, while I regroup, I should link to past favorite posts. And I think this is an excellent idea. It is also the laziest option. Thank you, reader! You are now my favorite. Your tiara is in the mail.
This weekend we went to a wedding reception in Philadelphia, and that reminded me of another wedding reception we attended four years ago—when we were young and foolish, and rented crappy cars, and laughed at New Jersey. Here's the full story of our car dying at the Hess Express.



Recycling! How very green of you.

I don't know who this reader of yours is but if you don't actually have a tiara, I do and will gladly send it. This is the best idea ever. I loved this post and will now be thinking about the Bluffin all day. Fantastic.

I haven't checked out those links yet, but as long as you're linking to past posts, please, oh please, for the love of God, link to the story of Henry's birth. To this day I still collapse into giggles when I think of that story. If you link to that story, I'll ... well, I don't know what I'll do, but it'll be GOOD.
And now, I shall visit your links. Enjoy your regrouping time.

Wow, I'm in awe...have you never recycled a post before? I've done it twice in the last 3 weeks, and I've only been blogging since March! I justify it with the knowledge that most of the readers I have now didn't read them when I first started so, voila! It's all new to them (I do tell them I'm recycling though.) It's tricky to find time to be witty and creative with the kids home for the summer!

Hey-- my wife is doing a clip show! (Hellooo royalty checks...! Oh, wait. Damn.)

If I had known you were going to pick favorites, I would have tried harder . . .

That's some fancy segue to the link. I forgot, kinda, that it's June and time for weddings. Hee.
Happy Summer! Happy regrouping!

P.S. Sounds like the car place and computer place gave you the shaft. The Shaft. Get it?!

Am wondering what a bluffintop might look like, and if I might already have one.

Too funny! There's now a snot falling out of my nose as I try not to guffaw too loudly and wake newborn (which would prevent me reading on to find that post of Henry's birth).
Can I get a tiara too? I think it would look brilliant with my afro.

Love the past blog idea! What's the point in being a super-genius, if you can't remind people of your past genius? Was Einstein coming up with fresh, witty content ever day? NO, HE WAS NOT. So yay you and your recycling! All finslippy is good finslippy.
