WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 27, 2010 Mwah, hah, hah, hah! Halloween, baby! Woo hoo! I am a total spaz for Halloween! We decorate the house more than we do at any other time. I have more than a dozen animatronic characters, a haunted village that moves and makes noise, and my iPod has 3 separate Halloween playlists….

The World According To Jack
WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 01, 2008 Jack (my son, for those who have not yet participated in the yak-tipping/goldfish-impersonating initiation you must undergo in order to read this blog) turned 8 this summer. Apparently, this is the age where your children start to say things that force you to do the cartoon double-take. Or maybe it’s just…
And The Award For “Worst Mother of the Year” Goes To…
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 06, 2010 Hey! Look how my dog fell asleep while I was writing this! Me??? Ohmygod! I’m so excited! I’d like to thank my children, without whom this honor would not be possible! Do I get a tiara with this? Do I get dental? A one-way, single ticket to a Vegas spa would…
The Penultimate Interview
WEDNESDAY, APRIL 16, 2008 I’ve been doing some blog and media interviews lately and it’s made me wonder what I would ask me if I were interviewing me. So, just for fun, here’s how my dream interview would go: Interviewer – Daniel Craig (completely nude, duh!): Oh, Leslie Langtry! You write the greatest books ever…
Thyroid Gland…Thyroid Gland…Friendly, Neighborhood-Sized Thyroid Gland!
TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 11, 2008 This isn’t going to sound like a funny story at first, but somehow I factually found a lot of humor in it. I know you’re surprised. I got a clean bill of health from my Endocrinologist this week. Yay me! You see, I’d had a second biopsy of my thyroid. Seems…
Now Is The Title Of Our Discontent…
WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 30, 2008 I’ve had four different people ask me in the last two days how I come up with my titles. Granted, I can’t tell if they are being complimentary or smart-assed, but I practice the religion known as Delusion – that way, it’s always a compliment. Anyway, I thought I’d let you…
Welcome to the Jungle Gym, We’ve Got Fun & Games…
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 12, 2007 As most of you know, I am a girl scout leader and have been for five years. It is an exceptional organization or I would have nothing to do with it. My only beef with them is the constant level of caution regarding everyday things. I was looking through the organization’s…
It’s That Time of Year…
WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 08, 2010 As many of you know, every Labor Day Weekend, I take my girl scout troop camping for three days. We started when the girls were in 1st grade. Now, they are 6th,7th & 8th. And we always have a great time. Always. This year, we had a couple of new girls….
I Did It.
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 07, 2011 I just got impatient. I couldn’t wait to see what was under all that dark, red hair I’d had for so long. So, on a Saturday, I texted my hairdresser to ask what setting I should set the dog trimmer to – and she graciously offered to cut it off Sunday…
Leslie Langtry – Author, Patriot – Now With Cute, New Glasses
Sgt. Jessica Barney, Moi, and Sgt. Jacqueline Kessler WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 01, 2012 I attended Sgt. Assassin’s military formal dinner this weekend. And I found out that I have fans in the US Army! That’s right. Leslie Langtry is serving her country…without the really hard basic training or complete lack of style in military-issue shoes. I’m…
