- Mighty mouse disrupts household
- September 13, 2009
- A distraught woman isn’t much fun to live with. That’s why men often say dumb things in lame attempts to make us feel better. Some examples: “Don’t worry; it will grow back.” “Of course I was listening.” “No bigger than in any other jeans you wear.”
- Boomer Girl Diary: Trends make terrible masters
- September 6, 2009

- Crushes
- August 24, 2009
- My husband was not my first love. There were many others before him. And, by that I mean many, MANY others. The first was Wally Cleaver. Deep in my heart, I knew he was way too mature for a girl of 7. He was in high school, after all. His younger brother, Beaver, was a more age-appropriate match. But Wally was so cute with his wavy brown hair and big blue eyes. I loved him unabashedly and was bitterly jealous of his girlfriend — that pert and perky Mary Ellen Rogers — who was so unworthy of him.

- Boomer Girl Diary: In the market for a new vacation plan
- July 19, 2009
- I was suffering from an acute case of vacation envy. Symptoms included pronounced restlessness, intermittent depression, mild anxiety, cabin fever and an obsessive attraction to travel guides. Seemed like everyone I knew was headed or had just been to the mountains, lakeside or seashore for rest, relaxation and recession-be-damned fun.
- Boomer Girl Diary: Couple will never achieve fusion in the kitchen
