I may be a bit insane

Okay – so I’m soooooo excited about tonight’s episode of Friday Night Lights that every time I see a preview for it, I tear up a little bit. I’M SERIOUS. The show is so good I cry in anticipation of it. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH ME. The previews just look so good and I just can’t wait and it’s turned me into an emotional basketcase. How bad is it? ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO KNOW? It’s so bad – I just cried over a trailer for Firehouse... Read More

I could make millions

Listening to Friday Night 80s with my son a couple of weeks ago, and watching him shrink in agony with every new song that I got excited over (“Oh! Bon Jovi! He’s so Sexy!”), game me a brilliant idea. I want to make a Mix CD Titled “Embarrassing My Teenager At the Touch of a Button.” I’m going to sell it on the black market and I’ll retire in exactly 15 minutes. See? There are two types of songs that come on the radio that my son cringes... Read More

Deathly Hallows Cover Art Released

Posted by on March 28, 2007 · 17 Comments 

I find ever news tidbit about the last Harry Potter book both intoxicatingly exciting and depressingly awful all at the same time. I’m completely torn between thrill and loss. Either way – the cover art has been released. See the Today Show coverage here. I’m very excited but there have been a few moments where I felt the tears coming a little bit. I’m not ready for this to end. Cover of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Back cover art  Read More

I’m hiding

I had to leave the living room because Sanjaya just started singing on American Idol and it made me so uncomfortable I had to leave. He sounds bad. He looks scary. And I have no desire to sit through the attack he may get from the judges. I just think he’s a nice guy and I just want someone to put him out of his misery.  Read More

Does the Backyardigans theme song count?

I got tagged again for a meme and I have no idea how to deal with this one. I’m supposed to do something about Seven Songs I’m Listening To At The Moment. As someone who used to pride herself on her diverse music collection, I now spend all of my time listening to Top 40 radio and couldn’t tell you when the last time I bought a CD was. My musical tastes have deteriorated over the years. Along with my ass. I’m almost embarrassed to try to do this meme because... Read More

Hi. I’m Kim.

This is my blog that I've been writing on since January, 2004. I call myself Zoot as it's a derivative of an old childhood nickname. I used to write about my struggles to have children, but eventually I succeeded and now, I write a lot about those kids. I don't use my kid's exact names simply because if someone Googles their very unique names in the future, I don't want them stumbling upon my entries about boobsweat. I mean, would you hire someone whose Mom writes openly about such topics? NO. YOU WOULD NOT.

I love taking pictures and carry my camera (almost) everywhere I go. This means you'll see a lot of photos on this site. I also periodically post recipes I like as I've been slowly (but surely) learning to cook and I like to share my discoveries. Finally? I'm an annoying pop culture fanatic so I'll periodically ramble about Hunger Games or the latest Parks and Recreation.

I hope you like it here. If not? Please don't tell me. I cry easily.
