Upon returning to the table, she declared that she had (in ASL): POOPED HARD. We giggled. Then being crazy parents, we asked what color it was and she replied with [...]

I have an acquaintance. Let’s call her Dorothy. Dorothy is an avid John McCain supporter. She goes nuts when explaining his credentials and why he is the best choice for November 2008. Apparently, Dorothy is a religious zealot as well. She has been going around telling people I know. She has been telling them that [...]

Last night my lovely partner and I watched The Golden Compass. We have the book series at home but haven’t read it yet. Actually, Alli has read the first book, but I haven’t.

The Potholes Last weekend I got to do something I’ve been wanting to do for more than a year. Bike through traffic-free roads in the five boroughs of New York City with 30,000 other cyclists.

A big shout out the deaf-way to a great couple… Sarah and Jeff on their engagement! They went to Aruba last week and Jeff popped the question in the waters of the Atlantic Ocean. I’ve never seen Alli so stoked! She was practically jumping up and down in the kitchen when she read the text [...]
