A Woman's Work is Never ___________

Hello!

Sorry I've been MIA of late, guess I've been busy being a mother, a working mother. I could say there's no glory in motherhood (they wouldn't even light up the Empire State Building for Mother Theresa for cryin' out loud!) but ask me again whenever John smiles or laughs at me, and I'll retract that statement.

My little sweetie pie is growing fast and doing all kinds of new things like laughing, drooling, grabbing faces, glasses, and necklaces and rolling over on his sides. And he's got two bottom teeth poking out. Pretty soon he'll molt from a mole person into a mobile person. That's going to be a hoot.

Speaking of hoots, Auntie Jenn made this sunburst bib for John. Doesn't it manage to look delightful despite the dollop of puke on the front?

PS Doodle's been good. She won't use her new litter box (but hasn't used the bed), hates her new food (my bad, this working mother tried to save time by ordering a similar thing online, negativo resultivos), she ran away (again), she caught another mouse (again), and she killed it in the bathroom. Again. So, Mouseville took another hit and things are status quo in Doodleville.

Too Good to be True

Cupcakes topped with not just vanilla babies but chocolate as well (or Latino babies, as the package read, apparently). Comix, NYC ~ 1/27/10

Jon Friedman cracking up the kids with"your mother" jokes. Comix, NYC ~ 1/27/10

Folks "show"ered (and roasted) me and baby-to-be with love last week at Comix for the first-ever comedy co-ed Baby SHOWer that people not only didn't whine about attending beforehand, but raved about for days afterward.

Produced by Jenn Wehrung, Julia Wright, and Brandy Barber.

Special guests included dear peeps Jenn Hyjack, Honi Harlow, Giulia Rozzi, Shawn Hollenbach, Jenny Rubin, Jon Friedman, Leah Dubie, Matt Sears, Katina Corrao and Adam Wade live via satellite (or pre-recorded video, if you want to get technical)! Oh, and there were tremendous cupcakes.

Robb Leigh Davis ~ American Blackout ~ 4.23.09 @ The Tank

I never had the impression that being gay or black--or God forbid, both!-- in this country would be a funtime hayride, but until I saw American Blackout, I had no idea just how rough the road is. Bravo on an amazing show, Robb. Funny, serious, provocative, very well done.

Who Doesn't Love T&A?

Honi Harlow's "An American Boy in Paris" Burlesque Extravaganza at NYC's La Mama's on Monday night was a titillating fantasia of music, dance, ta-tas, cans (and can-cans) singing, and signing-- for the deaf. Yes, believe it: The hearing-impaired also love T&A. I think it's the blind who aren't as impressed. I mean, unfortunately, they're the ones really missing that whole "googly eyes" with the boobs bouncing and the nipple tassles swinging around thing and all.

Anyway, the "art of the tease" is a wonderfully campy, refreshing--and dying--art form in this age of extreme porn and rigid (and phony) Hollywood standard of what is considered sexy; make sure you see some burlesque sometime if you can. I took a million photos, but here are a few.

To begin, Honi signing for the audience (center) and Jenn Wehrung (right):
