UGH. I got stuck on 95N trying to get across the GW bridge for 8 hours on Sunday night…at a DEAD STOP. With both my sibs in the car and not enough gas to keep the engine (/heat) running! I feel your pain. Glad you made it safely though!
Seriously it was whacko yesterday. I was concerned about all the parents travelling with young’uns. I just had Kong-kong who watched his movie, then took...

Stupidity Alert Vacation Style
Spend 8.5 hours crawling to MD from CT (should take half that time in good conditions), spend 1.5 hours sitting in gas lines, waiting for food because #2 son picks the slowest line, run a couple errands, so total travel time was 11 hours…
Only to discover you packed only one extra pair of underpants for your trip.
I win!

If I went to leave for McD’s during the snow storm my mother would have just smacked & made me a PB&J (she doesn’t care how old I am; I’m not allowed to drive in the snow while I’m visiting for the holidays).
LOL, if I had done that he would have refused the sandwich, insisted on McD’s, Then I would begrugdingly eat the sandwich because I hate wasting food I’ve prepped and...

The Freak That Is My Son, Freako
So the power died late last night. I told the two boys to assemble into the family room which Freako has converted to his personal gaming room during break. The new PS 3 requires certain cables that can’t be plugged into his widescreen TV in his man cave. Freako had a roaring fire going and Kong-kong was next to no help bringing in firewood.
Around midnight Freako got the munchies and...

BATS IN THEIR BELFRY: DC COMICS’ NEW MUSLIM HERO ANGERS ISLAMOPHOBES
He’s a French Algerian Muslim who lives in the “banlieu” of Clichy-sous-bois (remember the riots from a few years ago right before Sarko’s election?)and is recruited by Batman.
Some stupid ethnocentric dreck:
How about that, Bruce Wayne goes to France where he hires not a genuine French boy or girl...

I’m confused as to how Holly got screwed over by Hef not proposing to her. Is it 1952? Does not having a ring on your finger mean you’re a lonely spinster? I don’t get it. People don’t propose to me every day. I don’t consider myself “fucked”. They had “a relationship”. They moved on. Happens every day.

Ah the Love Boat.
No, not the TV show, this Love Boat for us overseas Chinese youth. Anyone else on tumblr wanna cop to riding this ship of hedonistic fun? Oh geez the memories. The year I attended martial law was still in place in Taiwan and ignorant me didn’t know dancing was illegal. Oops, my friend and I danced in a department store once and wondered why the sales girls and soldiers...

I was just pulling dates out of my ass, to be honest.
I for one would like to know just how HK knows so much about the various incarnations of Studio 54. Something you’d like to share with the class,...

In Neighbor VHD's Defense
She was the rare housewife/Mom who made homemade food in Darien. None of the other young moms cooked. I only had Freako in the early years, so made it a point to cook. Plus my Japanese ex-pat friends “pushed” me to up my cooking game.
Anyhoo the other mom “friends” just served frozen food to their families. Mostly reheated TJ’s. I’m talking about the...

Chicken A La Barf
…is what we actually dubbed the dish. And thank you tumblrers for backing up my WTF reaction for this potluck dish. BTW all other dishes were empty at the end of the night, but there was still half of VHD’s casserole on the table.
It’s okay. I introduced her two younger daughters to Chinese food in ‘94. They didn’t know what was fried rice. The then 12 year old...
