Sluts and Stuff

Here is my latest column in Philly Mag, about slutty Halloween costumes. And a little about Harry Potter. And a lot about me being insane.

The idea was sparked when a mom-friend of mine said to me on the playground, “I want to keep my kids as young as I can for as long as I can.” Ever since, I think about that quote once a day. At least. I think of it even more so lately, because five-year-old Drew has taken to singing one particular song, over and over. And over. And not just at home. In the car. In the grocery store. On the soccer field, where it’s usually punctuated by a cartwheel. Always loud. Lots of vibrato.

This is the song: “I’m sexy and I know it.”
