Earlier this week, Husbandrinka and I were having
a discussion about which one of us was luckier

I had a friend who bounced a check
in Texas once. I’m not sure how she evaded
execution, but one of the things that she was ordered to do was to attend psychobabbly classes about why she bounced the check and how she and others who also bounced checks felt about it. She thought that ...

It happened a lot more when I was
younger, but invariably, whenever someone first learns that I
was born in Russia, they’d ask me for Russian curse words. At first I was all coy, like “I don’t know” and “I’m not really sure,” but then I started to ...

This morning I was supposed to be enjoying
a tooth extraction, but last night my daughter spiked
a fever, so I had to cancel the appointment. Needless to say, I was disappointed because I was so looking forward to it. I’ve had teeth extracted before (one in each pregnancy) and ...

about the whole immigration to NYC from Leningrad. My
writing partnerette told me that I need to start referring to it as my MS. Which I really hope stands for manuscript . I’ve had to practice saying it a lot because right now when I ...

Mama and I spoke on the phone last
Thursday. Below is the transcript. Well, except that it
was in Russian. But I swear, this is a certified translation. Or maybe a certifiable one. “Did you hear that a cat got the swine flu?” I asked her. “What are you talking ...

A few weeks ago, I tweeted something about
having had it up to HERE with people asking
me to vote for things, so it only makes sense that I am now asking you to go to YouTube and vote for my friend Adrian’s (and his gorgeous kids’) video . I tried hard to think of a reason ...

So a few years ago some people decided
to spin Christmas with the whole “Jesus is the
reason for the season” thing. I think it’s because they were late with their Christmas shopping and wanted to deflect a little. Which is totally fine, except for us ...

So this is what I don’t understand. If
you are a criminal, enjoying an afternoon of, say,
murder and mayhem, and the police come over to talk to you, as they arrest you in anticipation of further discussion, they are going to read you the Miranda warning. And unless you’ve ...
