Tiny Boxes
Cough! Cough! Okay, so do any of the cold and cough medicines you can buy over the counter actually work anymore? Because I’ve been trying all the various members of the Robitussin and Sucrets family, and so far I’m still hacking away like Mimi in La Boheme (well, you know, if she’d really exhibited the […]
Catalano Confidential
Well, I have a really bad cold, and I’m going to go visit my mom this week, so I guess things couldn’t be worse. Ha ha, just kidding, Mom! No, really. I guess the plane I’m taking to go see my mom could crash. That would be worse. I have one of those colds where […]
Dumbledore is Gay!!!!
I knew it. I don’t mean to brag or anything, but my gaydar is seriously fine-tuned thanks to all the guys I’ve dated over the years who turned out to be same-sex oriented (I’ve gotten much better now than I used to be. Now I just assume every guy I meet is gay until he […]

But then things got even better. […]
Henrietta and the Horrible, Terrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
I had one of those nightmare days yesterday where I got to the airport in New York City at eight thirty in the morning and I didn’t reach my destination airport (in Key West) until eight thirty yesterday evening. Seriously. And I had a CAT with me. In a bag. It is one thing to […]
My Head is Exploding
Why didn’t anyone tell me that Judy Blume has a blog? Do you realize how awesome and groundbreaking this is? This is JUDY BLUME, who wrote BLUBBER, one of my favorite books ever, and one of the most banned books of all time! She has a BLOG! I’m so happy! In other book related news, […]
