Nice guy).
I like everything. If it has a hook, I love it!
About Me:
I'm a television lover.I used to live for Melrose Place on Monday Nights. Got to love the Amanda/Alison Parker drama, right? I guess it goes back to when I was addicted to Dynasty in the '80s. But I digress.

I watch American Idol all the time. I'm a HUGE fan of Lost. So, who is in the casket?? Anyone? Anyone?

Aside from the boob tube, I'm pretty busy. I freelance for The Trenton Times (www.njtimes.com). I have interviewed a diverse roster of people like Patti Labelle, Smokey Robinson, Jason Wade from Lifehouse, John Keefe, the drummer from Boys Like Girls, and assorted community figures. I used to write for the Aquarian Weekly and The Asbury Park Press (a highlight? Interviewing Ozzy Osbourne the day after he injured his back trying to lift a mattress).

I'm also a mom to three kids. As a matter of fact, the picture on this site was taken when I was pregnant with #3. I plan to lose more baby weight and update as soon as possible! HA!

It's good to be back on the air at GROCK. I feel like this has been my home since 1992. Gosh, has it been that long? I started back when it was still FM1063 and Matt Pinfield was doing afternoon drive. Hard to believe I'm only 21. HA!

He's Just Not That Into You

The book becomes a movie with Jennifer Aniston and Drew Barrymore. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0IeXqvFR6HI I can't tell if this will be funny or if it would suck. Affleck's involvement increases the suckitude factor, does it not? The bit with Drew's voicemail is funny, though. If the link doesn't work-I added the video.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGGGH! GAS!!!!

It just went over $4 at my gas station. $4. 4 FREAKING DOLLARS. The sad part is we will probably remember those prices as the good old days, if this doesn't get rectified soon. I had a horrific week last week. My poor son fell into a glass table and had to go the the emergency room. Four stitches later, he comes home and again tries to jump off my couch. The doctor suggested I start giving him chocolate in an attempt to calm him down, much like ADD kids are given stimulants to achieve an opposi… Continue

Gdiapers, Cloth Diapers, Disposable debate

A friend of mine just informed me that her pool club is now enforcing a rule: Huggies Swimmie diapers are no longer acceptable. The only diapers permitted are these biodegradable diapers, and right now the name escapes me. So I googled and came up with the Julia Roberts approved Gdiapers. They''re allegedly flushable. Mmmmkay. so I did some more research-the diapers aren't the flushable part (the diapers appear to be identicle to cloth diapers) but these inserts are. I diaper two children. That… Continue

Yeppers. That was a fun time. I have more but I didn't put them all up for some reason. I probably got tired or something :) It's an annoying process as Im sure you know. Im going again this year so there will be more pics to come. I also just minutes ago won tickets to the Summer Campout show. I should get some awesome pics there. By the way, is that all ages show. It was my daughters phone that got through, not mine. It would be kinda mean if I didn't take her and it was all ages. I guess I should have asked but I was so excited at the time.

Hey, Michelle...I'm a little late in reading my comments. We head to karate at around 9:15 and it's about a 25 minute ride. My kiddo does have a healthy appreciation (and his own collection) of some 80s bands..he loves Devo and B-52s--so the Breakfast Club has kind of become a family fave thing to do on the weekend! :)
