We’re facing Mother’s Day 2006, people. Are you loaded up with bouquets, candy and jewelry? No? Well, you still have two and a half days.

I am getting something good this year. Well, I’m kind of picking it out myself, but that’s important for the gift I’m getting. I’m getting a new domain to play with. Isn’t that a cool gift? See, back when I was pregnant with Junior, I closed shop on the little ezine I was running. It wasn’t much, but it was nice to still have a hand or a foot in literature. And ever since blogging took hold of America, my website has changed from being a “magazine” type site to just a blog.

Just a blog.

*sigh*

So I think it’s too late to try to undo that mentality and try to get BDT back to what it was 10 years ago when I started it. Instead, I’ll leave this as the blog, but start a new content-driven site that only updates when there’s something new – photos, art, articles, poems, blood stains. You know, stuff like that.

I’d tell you the domain but because I can’t register it until payday (tomorrow) I’d have to kill you all. That’s gotta be at least 6 or 7 murders – and some of you live out of my local area so that would really be a drag.

Keep your eyes here for the announcement sometime next week. You know, after I actually own the domain and have at least a placeholder up.

(Oh, and after I do that, I get to register one or two other domains, because they’re cheap and I’ll be able to point them to my massive new home on the web. Dudes, have you looked at this deal? I think we should all get websites for Mother’s Day!

  1. Rawkin’. I just got my mother and MIL spa towels from LL Bean. I don’t know that either of them would know what to do with a domain of their own.

  2. y’kno that would be an awesome idea except for the fact that MY mom is about as technologically advanced as your baby.

  3. Well, my baby is 8 and he’s no slouch in the technology department.

    But I see your point.

  4. I had to remind my two kids (18/15) that mother’s day was coming. They are too wrapped up in own issues and buying stuff for friend’s birthday etc.

    I splurged for a Gateway notebook computer for my wife from Cir City, $580 on clearance after $150 rebate. Wide screen, SD card reader, dvd burner, 60GB drive, 512MB mem. I see it’s now $680 this week.

  5. On an off-topic: Jerry, thanks for the tip on Central Street Deli and Meats. I got some great ground sirloin and sausages for my husband there. Really cute, homey place.

  6. Glad you enjoyed the Deli. The killer for me is the potatoe salad, not sure where they get it but I can just eat that for lunch or late night snack. The beef kabobs
    are also great for something quick for the grill.

    My second favorite place is Maddies, nice mom and pop Italian place to eat (across from the national plastics museum, lancaster,st.). I see the mom every Sat at Demoulas shopping for the place, kids are nice. Never a wait for dinner on Fri and Sat nite (I cant see waiting an hour to eat somewhere). It’s just as good as any other place around town. They do more business at breakfast and you might find it busy but the omelette are huge. Prices decent too.

    CU – btw – I have no financial interest in any of the above just like to share good stuff with folks. I see local.yahoo.com has some feedback on places too.
