Cornered Office

with Mir Kamin

I'm a freelance writer and mother of two working from home, which theoretically means I can set my own schedule so as to best accommodate my family. In reality, "flexible hours" often equals "working too much." Yes, I'm my own boss; no, that doesn't mean life is easy. It's hard to leave the office when you live there. But I love what I do and feel very lucky. And not just because I get paid to work in my pajamas.

Happy Friday! Last night we had a rehearsal dinner, and tomorrow we have The Big Wedding. Let me tell you; there is nothing like watching other people orchestrate a wedding to make you seriously grateful to just be a guest. Amen.

Now, you just go read a few blogs this morning, with your coffee, and remember to be happy that you’re busy working instead of corralling bridesmaids or something.

I’m not a regular reader of Gawker, but I did get a kick out of their Fifteen Most Useless Internet Euphemisms.

Looking for a new photoblog? Stephanie Roberts just launched a new one that I’m digging.

Old McDonald had a farm, and on that farm he had a longsuffering mother.

mental_floss is always good for a diversion, and you know you’ll sleep better tonight knowing the origins of 10 favorite muppets. Trust me.

You’ll also feel better once you know how you’d rate as a 1930s wife. After you stop laughing, anyway.

Have a wonderful weekend!

  • See, what I think is really intriguing was seeing how I ranked as a 1930’s husband! Far easier to get stratospheric scores with that one.
