“Opportunity makes a thief.” ~Francis Bacon~ “If you ever have to steal money from your kid, and later on he discovers it’s gone, I think a good thing to do is to blame it on Santa Claus†~Jack Handy~ Disturbed was an understatement for how I felt when I read yesterday that the “Toys for …
*** oops, looks like a technical error spoils the outcome of the 2008 Presidential election *** I think the kidnapping scammers were trying to get free books from Barnes & Nobles! Hellloooo…library is open! *** Dang pre-teen boys driving me nuts this week *** 17 more days until I turn 40 *** my big Soldiers’ …
Memes are little things that come around on the web that are like a bad cough that you share with your friends because you refuse to cover your mouth. Kind of like chain letters of modern day. I think I personally own the record for chain letter breaking. Yes, I even broke the children’s sticker …
Ladies and gentlemen – bathing suit season is right around the corner (after taxes). Join me in a group panic! psycho-01.wav
Sunday AM started bright and early in Pasadena. I attended a fabulous lunch at 7:15 AM with some gret e-friends (who I met in person for the first time). They drove me to LAX and dropped me off at 10AM or my 11:45 flight after a delicious California breakfast. What could possibly go wrong? GRRRR! …
I know my readers (from Kiss My Gumbo) expect a daily dose of humor, snark and positive. After all, I am the self-proclaimed “Princess of Positive.” This weekend I would like to take the opportunity to encourage and inspire you to do more as an American than wonder about that missing yellow ribbon magnet that …
Dear Louisiana, Yesterday I flew into LAX for a Soldiers’ Angels conference. I probably should have flown into Burbank, but it is hard to beat a 4 hour direct flight. Somehow I got upgraded to the United “Super Economy” class (I feel guilty robbing someone in need of the extra 5″ leg room), but hey …
I am writing to you this AM (real early) from MSY – Louis Armstrong International Airport. How does the MSY abbreviation come out of New Orleans (though it is in Kenner) and Louis Armstrong? According to Skygod, MSY is the former Moisant Stock Yards in New Orleans. Now what the heck was Moisant Stock Yards? …
GRRRRRR!!!! Yours truly has been going through all her paperwork to get ready to do taxes. 2007 is the very first year in 11 whole years that I had any income (and it wasn’t much – but something). Taxes are a PITA. I am not spouting politics or anything, but just putting something into your …
UPDATE: Apologies to Clifford from Red Stick Rant – he is not – I repeat – not a Yankee by birth. But, he did live there for a short time and he is a Red Sox fan! ***Monday is here and yes, I will do my “yay the kids are back in school dance.” ***What…March …
I am constantly re-evaluating my “plans.” When I found out we were moving to Louisiana just over a year ago, my plans for my future all fell into place within a couple of months. I jumped in feet first and so much has happened. Of course, the #1 thing is that my family is all …
Sorry folks, I maxed out on “love week,” too many other things racing in my little brain (the hamster drank too much caffeine I think). I got my dozen roses, a cupcake from my daughter and kisses from the boys…what more could a girl want for Valentine’s Day? And to top it off, we are …
This is our 15th Valentine’s Day we celebrate together honey! We may be a little grayer, a little older, and our clothes may have shrunk a little – but I LOVE YOU more than the day we married almost 14 years ago! We have defied the odds of a great marriage and I look forward …

First off, thanks for being so patient. The past few days, KMG was experiencing some technical difficulties! YAY – they are all fixed now! I wish I could just walk around and pair up great people looking for love (no aspirations for a dating service – don’t worry). Besides, statistically, most people will meet on …
***My first single looking for love this week is… Susanna (pretty name), is 30 years young and a Northshore gal. She was born and raised on the South Shore and is a graduate of UNO. She is the proud mom of a 9yo who keeps her busy. She is open-minded, smart, enjoys bike riding, yoga, …
