Random Access Babble: On My Love For Cowboys
http://randomaccessbabble.blogspot.com/2007/02/on-my-love-for-cowboys.html
Tuesday, February 27, 2007. On My Love For Cowboys. For a geeky New Yorker with a tech job who loves Hillary Clinton. And vodka gimlets and video games I know a lot about cowboys. I know some of you are now giggling to yourself and thinking “Silly Brianna, cowboys aren’t real! 8221; (Hi Amy! Of course cowboy stereotypes aren’t all favorable. Earlier this year I attended Pro Bull Riding at. And horses and chewing tobacco. Interspersed between the poetry styling’s of the manliest men in. Who I’m sure...

Random Access Babble: August 2014
http://randomaccessbabble.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 20, 2014. Casper, Month 9. Every month I am shocked again that, somehow, a whole month has passed. Here we are at time number 9 of feeling this exact same way. 9 month dude. 9. You’ve developed a weird snorting hiss that you perform, paired with arm flailing and clasping hand. Motions, when you get very excited. It’s both adorable and the nerdiest thing ever. Early in the month I captured the following tale of woe for posterity. 8221; - obviously this jinxed everything. Poop. So...For t...

Life with Tali & Eli: Hurricane Sandy, Day One
http://lifewithtali.blogspot.com/2012/10/hurricane-sandy-day-one.html
Life with Tali and Eli. The laughter, the tears and everything in between. Monday, October 29, 2012. Hurricane Sandy, Day One. Today was the first day of Hurricane Sandy. It went pretty much as I expected. Taking after her Aunt Cara. Another view of Tali's dolls in their little town. The storm didn't really hit us until the afternoon and we lost power around 6:00 pm There were a few blackouts before the power went out for good. I think I was more worried about the kids being scared than they were act...

Random Access Babble: Casper, Month 11
http://randomaccessbabble.blogspot.com/2014/10/casper-month-11.html
Saturday, October 18, 2014. Casper, Month 11. Of the month we gave in and brought you into our bed where everyone could sleep - me with a baby foot in my face but it (mostly) beat trying and failing over and over and over to put you down. Whatever the core issue eventually mom and dad brought the sleep training hammer back down on you and we cried it out together and now, again, we all sleep all night (separately). Remember last month when I said that you loved me most of all? In my country the song is a...

I Am Not Mean, I Swear.: Hugging at Work is Weird
http://i-am-not-mean.blogspot.com/2008/07/hugging-at-work-is-weird.html
I Am Not Mean, I Swear. Popular opinion is the greatest lie in the world" Thomas Carlyle. Tuesday, July 8, 2008. Hugging at Work is Weird. I had an incredibly awkward moment at work today. It involved "the work hug". I was so disturbed that I obsessed about it for hours after the fact. In the hopes of educating others, and spare others the trauma, I have included some Q&A below to elaborate on the ground rules. What is your attitude toward hugging in general? So what constitutes an awkward work hug?

I Am Not Mean, I Swear.: There's a Fungus Among Us....
http://i-am-not-mean.blogspot.com/2010/02/theres-fungus-among-us.html
I Am Not Mean, I Swear. Popular opinion is the greatest lie in the world" Thomas Carlyle. Sunday, February 14, 2010. There's a Fungus Among Us. Husband and I took the kiddo the ER this evening upon the direction of the on call nurse at her ped's office. In addition to spiking a fever of almost 105, she had shallow breathing and a wicked phlegmy cough. Presumably fearing some nasty RSV or flu, we were advised to hit the ER. I didn't forget to tell them anything. Oh that's a textbook fungal infection.

I Am Not Mean, I Swear.: Ocean Handle! What's an Ocean Handle?
http://i-am-not-mean.blogspot.com/2007/09/ocean-handle-whats-ocean-handle.html
I Am Not Mean, I Swear. Popular opinion is the greatest lie in the world" Thomas Carlyle. Sunday, September 2, 2007. What's an Ocean Handle? I spent the weekend at my parent's house while my husband studied diligently for his board exams. This particular weekend was my grandmother's 87th birthday which she started off by falling down and whacking her head on the corner of a dresser. This was then followed by a visit to the hospital and 48 hours of declarations of new ailments and wild meanderings. When s...

Random Access Babble: Casper, Months 13 and 14
http://randomaccessbabble.blogspot.com/2015/01/casper-months-13-and-14.html
Sunday, January 25, 2015. Casper, Months 13 and 14. Dear Squirm-bot 5000,. As you get older, I get lazier (or is it more tired? Hard to say.). Welcome to this decade's answer to laziness - the listicle! Things Casper Can Do. Like a penguin. Like a baby fawn. Like a drunken sailor. Like the most efficient and ridiculous version of all three of these things put together. Find specific books and bring them to an adult to be read. Do not know your shapes. I should be one of those parents who brags about her ...
