Name That Turk
March 29, 2011
(credit: visualfunhouse.com) Everyone has a family tree. Now Husband Dan has a family tree, only the branches have a permanent bad hair day and refuse to organize themselves in any logical way. Part of this is because people in his family believe strongly in marriage and so they marry often, creating lots of half […]
How Much Does A Woman Cost?
March 1, 2011
This past Sunday, Life in the Boomer Lane’s friend Roni and LBL were driving to Baltimore for the annual ACC Craft Show (“Our motto: We have amazing crafts. You can either buy one of them or make your mortgage payment this month.”) Roni was regaling LBL with the latest romp (in the salon, not the bedroom) she had with her […]
We have stuff. Like earrings with a lot of breasts.
February 15, 2011
In my quest to come up with more activities than one human being can possibly engage in without making a dime, I have started making cuff bracelets. Since I have already purchased my new spring wardrobe (The sleeping bra. Remember?), I am now purchasing metal cuffs, ribbons, glue, and vintage buttons and earrings for embellishment. I […]
Dr Zhivago was a Mere Innocent
February 1, 2011
I checked weather.com last night and saw the following blaring headlines: “Impending storm will cover half of the country! Storm will break all records! 100 million people will be impacted by this violent, destructive storm!” This morning was no better: “Historic blizzard and ice storm underway at this exact moment in the Midwest!” I turned […]
What 5 Inches Really Means
January 28, 2011
In case any of you have been living behind LBL’s washer and dryer with an assortment of her missing socks and underwear, you might not know that DC just had a five inch snowfall on Wednesday. Traffic police in the area were immediately diverted from directing traffic to riding around in big official-looking trucks. This resulted […]
Cloudy With A Chance of Children
December 11, 2010
Life in the Boomer Lane is getting ready for the kids to descend on the house for the holidays (As she writes this, Jorge/George, the normally tree-climbing lawn guy, is dragging the ladder out of the garage so he can string the interior holiday lights.) Technically, they will be celebrating Chanukah, which will have already been over […]
Please don't take my crappy cell phone away from me!
November 19, 2010
My technological prowess stops somewhere between the invention of the wheel and that of the cotton gin. Everything else, I put under one of two categories: It’s magic and I like it. It’s a curse on my existence and I want it to go away. My enthusiasm for changing anything I have is comparable to […]

Rallying to Restore Marital Sanity
November 2, 2010
Life in the Boomer Lane and Now Husband’s friend Judy was coming with them to attend the Rally to Restore Sanity. She was driving from New Jersey to their house on Friday evening. The phone rang. LBL picked it up at that exact same second that NH came rushing into the room, yelling “There is something wrong with […]

Ouija Board: A Do-It-Yourself Seance

Before reading this post, you need to set aside all judgments you have about psychics, paranormal activity, spirits, and Langhorne, PA. Keep an open mind, as we take a trip into The Land of That Which Cannot Be Explained But Neither Can Anything Else. Now Husband Dan and I spent the weekend visiting my […]
