Meg is a little gleeful, and yes, a little woeful over the Presidential debates. She sees all kinds of buzzwords being bandied about like “proud American” and “getting our rights back”. Excuse me, but aren’t we all proud Americans? I’m also pretty sure we have more inalienable rights than people in most countries. Yet people shriek and shout and then tell the Pillsbury Dough Boy they like him best. Yay, let’s pick the guy who brought government to a screeching halt in the 90′s!
Good Lord, President Obama, you must be kicking back and enjoying this:
Yeah, you showed him Newt. How dare he bring up the open marriage thing, it’s only all over the networks!
Mitt never gave a second thought to sticking his family pet in a carrier on TOP OF A CAR ,roaring down the interstate 20 years ago, but I bet he’s regretting that thoughtless little act now. Is that what a smart man would do?
Freddie Mac, Jimmy Mack, someone wants their money back! I assume you are all singing that to the tune of Martha and the Vandellas, correct?
I bet poor old Rick Perry didn’t think his foreign policy thoughts about Turkey would be his undoing:
And lest we forget the spouses:
Well, expect more fake tweets and unusual candidate avatars from Meg as the campaign rolls along. She’s here to make the election and the social networks a better place for all of us.
It’s Friday, and Meg is thinking some football and yummy snacks for the Patriots/Ravens game this SUNDAY. Meg will not, however, be turning to Paula Deen for a casserole of cream cheese and a side of fried butter for her halftime snack. Paula’s cooking never inspired Meg. Too much of everything. Too much fat, too [...]
Meg always speculates about people that are named after cities and states. She wonders whatever happened to the tried and true baby boomer names like Jane, Janet and Janice? (actually three of the most popular names in her high school!). What can the parents be thinking when they say, “I love the name Tampa Bay. [...]
It’s January people, and let’s face it, it’s a boring month. Meg’s excitement over the holiday weekend consisted of re-grouting her bathroom tub (a joint project with the husband), shopping on-line for laptop batteries, and continuing her lucky streak of not having to shovel a single inch of snow so far this winter. Good times! [...]
Meg was on Facebook this week and noticed everyone was posting the number one song the week they were born. What viral fun! What could be more exciting than saying you were born the week the Stones Gimme’ Shelter went number one? Or We Are the Champions by Queen was rockin your Mom’s delivery room? [...]
"Set during the hazy, enchanting, and martini-filled world of New York City circa 1938, Rules of Civility follows three friends--Katey, Eve, and Tinker--from their chance meeting at a jazz club on New Year's Eve through a year of enlightening and occasionally tragic adventures. Reminiscent of Fitzgerald, Rules of Civility is full of delicious sentences you can sit back and savor (most appropriately with a martini or two)."
Meg is just starting this book, but is looking forward to a very Daisy Buchanan kind of experience.
Random Observations from the Suburbs
Meg is enamored of this mustard seed laden cheese called Red Dragon. It's making dinner time a little decadent these days; try making cauliflower gratin with it. Guaranteed to perk up wintertime doldrums....
Amidst all the political bullshit and stock market crap going on, we have forgotten there is a horrific famine taking place in Africa. I was inspired by Tara of "Tara Bites Back" and her eloquent plea for contributions to this honorable organization. If you can, give a few dollars toSave the Childrentoday.
