The Main Characters

The Man (of the House): The love of my life. Severely addicted to books (that take up WAYYYY too much space in our house) and raw garlic. We've been married 15 years, but involved for many more. Long story....

Our Kids:
SC:  Age 14. Book addicted like both her parents. Serious, but with a nice sense of humor. Well mannered in the eyes of the world, but at home,it can be another story--she's a teenager(!)

JR: Age 10  I think of her as a Disney Princess's evil twin. All the eccentricity of both sides of the family wrapped up in a sweet little body and an adorable smile. People find her a darling. I do too, but I also find her exhausting!

The Beasts: Our 2 cats, both adopted from animal rescue. "Bart" is a big, solid black, total teddy bear of a cat. Our brown tabby queeen "Bella" is  in love with The Man, though she seems to like me too!

Me: Children's librarian by day, tired keeper of all of the above by night. When I think of my life, I think of Nicole Hollander (Sylvia)'s immortal line about things that are easier than combining a family and a career. Like swimming the Amazon covered in peanut butter....

    Want The Latest Mishegosse?

    The Jennifer Count #6-- 100 Jennifers!

    posted Thu, 08/11/05

    If you want an explanation of this (beyond the obvious one that I'm nuts and always have been) go here for the original "Jennifer Count" post from this spring. Otherwise, just roll your eyes and read on.......................................

    I've made it to 100!

    One hundred Jennifers. And a diverse bunch they are.

    Republicans and Democrats. SAHMs and working moms. College students and executive types.

    Bad poetry and overly cute pictures. Posts that make me want to cheer--and a few that make me want to puke.

    In short, a good cross representation of the females of the blogosphere, I think.

    Most of these I found surfing Blog Explosion and Blog Clicker. But a Google search turned up quite a few as well.
    And I got a lot of links from Jennifer blogs that linked to OTHER Jennifer blogs.

    In fact, there's a Jennifer webring or two.....

    I also found this site: http://www.gizmo1.demon.co.uk/jencyclo/links.htm   which is a  "Jencyclopedia" and includes a link to a purported society to PREVENT people from naming their children Jennifer!

    I dunno. Considering that the current top 5 girls names are Madison (eew!) Emma, Emily, Olivia and Isabella, I think it's actually safe to name your kid Jennifer again.

    Probably the same goes for Jason.  But have no fear, I have no plans to start a "Jason Count"

    If you want to find any of these blogs, Googling them should turn them up pretty easily.

     I have not given links here and I am not endorsing or knocking any of these sites. I just count them. And without further ado:
