I depart from my usual posting content to share a story with you. You see, I try to keep this place fun, lighthearted, interesting. But above all, I like to keep it honest. This is a post where I share some trials in the world of parenting. It is nothing new when I say that […]
A convo Reza and I had today. We were leaving Target and there were two transexual/drag queens outside. As we walked by, one of them says, “I LOVE YOUR DAUGHTER’S HAIRCUT!!” I smiled and thanked her as we walked to the car. Reza says, “what did they say?” “She said she liked your hair”. “But […]
In the past month I have taught/shown my daughter: – The magic that is putting avocado in your sandwich – she fought me tooth and nail on this one but she got schooled! Now it’s a must. – New watercolor techniques – How to do the bump (the dance) to Shake Your Groove Thing, no […]
This past weekend we attended the Santa Rosa Toy Con, a small, local convention all things toys. Most of them were vintage collector type stuff. It was nice to have something in town for a change! Reza has recently been watching Heroes Of Cosplay on tv and because of it, she was all hung ho […]
Every Sunday morning I find myself in a ritual. After the girl and cats are fed, I like to sit down with my cup of coffee, listen to music and catch up on my blog feed on Bloglovin. On the music front I have been revisiting the Deftones catalog and listening to lots of Palms. […]

Excuse my quiet. Last week I seem to have picked up some funky bug that had me laid up for days with what felt like a horrible ear infection. I pretty much rode it out and it took all week. It was a real bummer cause I had to miss seeing Broods which we already […]
It’s funny how the world can be so small. Over the years I have made some very awesome connections, from all kinds of backgrounds and parts of the world. Designers, makers, models, artists of all kinds and I mean ALL KINDS, parents.. You name it I probably know someone who does it. Blogging has facilitated […]
As we were getting ready for bed last night I walked in to check on her one more time. This is what I found. She may be 7, use words bigger than her age, whip our asses at Monopoly on her second game ever, sass us like she is 13 and she may think she […]
It’s amazing how time flies when you are watching someone grow. I know. A complete and total cliche but you never really grasp it until you are actually living it. Yesterday, we celebrated Reza’s 7th birthday. *sniff* Like every year, I find myself looking back on her baby photos, the ones where we were the […]
