Or – Speaking of TiVo (I had this post almost done before I even saw Belinda’s dare. So today will be a TiVo themed day here on Sarah and the Goon Squad.) I’d like to take a couple of moments to talk about TV. 1) Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip: This was easily the [...]
For Belinda
September 21, 2006
Belinda over at Ninja Poodles wanted to see what we had on our TiVo “Now Playing” screen. No cheating. Here is what I had – fingerprints and all (sorry about the glare): Bob the Builder The Daily Show Good Eats Inside the NFL Jeopardy! Sesame Street Mickey Mouse Clubhouse (Ian’s current obsession) and Little Einsteins [...]
A Barfing Bifecta
September 20, 2006
Well, it wasn’t in my hand but Claudia just told me: “I frew up on the couch!” and then “What is it? Is it waisins? It was in my mouf.” Yes. Yes. It was raisins. Does anyone have a coupon for steam cleaning? Gross. (Stay tuned for the trifecta post. I don’t feel so swell.)
You Guys Want to Hear Something Really Gross?

About five minutes ago Ian threw up in my hand. IN MY HAND! I guess it is a good thing I kept him home for school again today. For his teacher anyway. Gross.
First Day of School. Or Not.
September 19, 2006
Today is The Goon Squad’s first day of school, except they aren’t going. Ian is sick. Who misses the first day of school? I feel like such a dork. I was really looking forward to going to the grocery store by myself too. But Ian is coughing and snotty – oh yeah, and he puked [...]

Meet Amy Güth
September 17, 2006
I accepted the strangest challenge. I agreed to review Amy Güth. At first I thought I was going to review her book “Three Fallen Women”, but then her PR person told me it was just an interview with a the author. After I told her I’d do this, I started thinking… Have I gone crazy? [...]
Sometimes I Wish I Was Making This Stuff Up
September 15, 2006
Ian True Story From 9/15/06 #1: TMI I try to be very open and honest with my children. We shower together and they often come into the bathroom while I am using the facilities. This morning, Ian was in the bathroom with me and he said “Mommy, are you putting that tampon on your penis?” [...]

September 15, 2006
The Blogfathers have given me respect by choosing me for the Goomah for September. Go over there today and read why I think it’s cool to be a dad. This is my 50th “Randomness” post. Wow. I also hit another milestone recently; akismet has caught over 1000 spam messages in my comments. What makes this [...]
Maybe I Have an Image Problem
September 14, 2006
I was checking out my flickr account today and you know how it always says hi to you in other languages? Well I saw this out of the corner of my eye. Salut Sarah606! For a split second I actually thought flickr was calling me a slut.
While Watching a Commercial for “Dancing With the Stars”
September 13, 2006
Sarah: Well, OF COURSE HE HAS NICE LEGS! HE’S A RUNNING BACK YOU MORON! Gabe: Just let it go. Sarah: You know I can’t. Gabe: I just don’t want to get sucked in to watching “Dancing With the Stars”. Sarah: I can’t help it. I’m sorry. I want to see Emmitt Smith dance. Gabe: I’m [...]
Three Reasons You Might Not Want to Take Two Year Olds to Your Doctor Appointment
September 13, 2006
1) One or both of them might run around the waiting room saying “I’m a monkey! Oooh ooooh aaaah aaaah!” 2) When you are changing into the blue gown in the examining room, one of them may yell (really loudly) “What are you doing Mommy? Do you have to poop?”* 3) One of them might [...]
