Try not to miss me.

House-sitters/dog-wranglers? Check. Passports? Check. White knuckles for flying on four different airplanes just to get from Montreal to a remote island in the Caribbean? Check.

Lovely people I'm going off grid for a little over a week. I'll be with my family and a gang of close friends celebrating life in general, my 50th birthday and 20 years of marriage to the man I love, otherwise known as The Huz. 

If you miss me please feel free to whine and sniffle in the comments below.

I love you.

Yer pal forever,

JC

The Evolution of SOCIAL MEDIA.

Social media? The cavemen scratched it in the dirt with a stick...

...and now they scratch it on the net with a smartphone.

Gossip, evangelizing, sales, hatedom, fandom... though the media has changed, essentially the messages are all the same. And so many more people have access to it.

Whelp...I think I just drew a couple of neck-beards here.

The Podium ...again.

I was invited to speak at a 'creative non-fiction' class at Marianopolis College today. The class and teacher were wonderful. They have no idea but I pretended to be 3 years old all the way.

This time I read a few funny selections from my blog with pictures and tied the whole thing together with the theme of empathy - in real life and social media.

I thought I might be really nervous like the last time, but it was cool. I didn't trip and fall or nothin'.

Froggy FRIDAY.

I feel like a froggie leaping from Friday lily pad to Friday lily pad.

Some weeks the hang time is a little long. But I usually land with a splash.

The Outsider Parents Club.

Whenever I come to these parent-teacher things at the kids' school, and I see other parents...I feel like an alien.

The other parents are all so familiar with each other. I often experience the same feeling when I try to engage with some online parenting communities and, dare I say it, mommy blog groups. I feel like an outsider. It kinda reminds me of high school...

Anybody else feel this way? I suspect that I don't have to start an Outsider Parents Club. It prolly already is.

Leap Year LOVE.

Happy Valentines Day ...every day!
