#Addicted
I am #addicted. I have been walking around for the past four days feeling like my husband left me without warning. Like I need to constantly count kids. Like I am a social freak who has been ostracized from the … Continue reading

Team Jolie
It’s been 8 years since the Team Aniston and Team Jolie feud—remember when people actually bought t-shirts to show their loyalty? It didn’t make me popular back then (Aniston outsold Jolie 25-to-1), but I have always been a fangelina…not to … Continue reading

Disney Dream
So, we got sh*t news about my beloved Mom’s health. Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t. Guess what we did (besides self-medicate, swear at Kim Kartrashian, and eat full-fat potato chips–this is NO time for Baked Lays)? We went to Disney World! Who … Continue reading
F*ck KK
The receptionist at Alex’s doctor’s office confronted me recently when I dragged my snot-nosed kid in for a same-day appointment. I was hoping for a good dose of antibiotics to stop the incessant whining, interrupted sleep, and Ike Turner-like abuse … Continue reading

Bitchslapped by the Bird
I am the turkey this Thanksgiving. Put the fork in me. I am done. I needed an emergency root canal today. It’s the Super Bowl for home cooks—a beautiful day when everyone collectively ignores their diets—and I am looped up … Continue reading

Boys and Boobs
My baby boy likes loves boobs. It’s all boobs all of the time at casa Meltzer these days. I know what you’re thinking…men are generally obsessed with the almighty breast. Shocker. I remember some boys in my neighborhood growing up … Continue reading
