Upon his return from St. Tropez with his 22-year-old girlfriend (and rumored fiancee) Hailey Glassman this week, Jon Gosselin faced his wife Kate. (Because contrary to how he's acting, they are in fact still married.) Witnesses say the run-in was icy, with both Gosselins playing with the kids but not interacting with each other. According to The Hollywood Gossip, Kate carried on fun-lovingly in front of her young and even rode a tricycle while Jon...tried to participate. Apparently they're doing their best to keep things as normal as possible for the children's … Read More

I spent the afternoon yesterday dismantling my desk and bookcase and moving them out of our bedroom: We are staging our apartment yet again. It's been on the market for months, and we've redoubled our efforts to get it sold. New broker, new price, new priorities: we needed to let in more light and air, make the place roomier.

Of course, I still have my other duties; as Debbie becomes increasingly immobilized by the pregnancy, I need to take up the slack and become more mobile. I've spent weeks perfecting the choreography: out … Read More

Before I got married my grandma told me to put my names in all my books. "Why?" I asked.

So far, for us "just in case" hasn't happened. But for many couples just in case is a reality and many of them didn't have … Read More

I'm sitting here in my apartment in (almost) silence, touching up an article I need to get out of the way before I leave for dinner with a friend who's visiting the city. The sun is spilling through the window, taunting me a little, since I could be sprawled out with a book on the grass in the park today. Instead, I'm here stressing.

The lease to my overpriced apartment is expiring in September and my roommates and I are in a state of desperation, trying to find a better deal on another one in the same complex. There are … Read More

So, the prophecy has come to pass. Frank now hates our new apartment. If you’ll recall, we were unceremoniously booted from our last place a few months ago and lucked into a great new apartment. An apartment that, at the time, Frank agreed was in many ways superior to the place we were leaving. It’s bigger, it’s a better neighborhood for us, it’s not on the ground floor, etc.

But I knew—I just knew—that after he got settled in, he’d find a way to hate this place, because that is what he always does. Okay, to be fair, we’ve … Read More
