Boomer Sex Ain't Boomin'
November 24, 2010 by Life in the Boomer Lane
An enlightening and thoroughly depressing new survey of sex among Boomers was conducted recently. Now Husband Dan and I unshackled ourselves from the headboard in our bedroom long enough to read it. I’ll summarize for those of you who were fans of Cliff Notes back in school. The first sentence says it all: The U.S. […]
Please don't take my crappy cell phone away from me!
November 19, 2010 by Life in the Boomer Lane
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.

The Lady Gaga Guide to Airport Security
November 12, 2010 by Life in the Boomer Lane
Life in the Boomer Lane is about to leave for London. Again. Because her three kids all live at a distance (three different distances, to be precise), LBL now does a fair amount of traveling.

November 11, 2010 by Life in the Boomer Lane
After my cricket post I decided to take a break from writing about any non-humanoids for awhile. Then my phone rang. It was a former client: “I have rats.
