Mamacita says:  I was reading my dear online friend Judy’s blog tonight and stole this meme idea from her.  Thank you, Judy.  I haven’t done a meme for a while, mostly because I loathe them, but this one appealed to me so here goes:  How I Named My Blog. Back in early 2004, my friend [...]

November 24, 2009 – 11:28 pm

Mamacita says:  Laura Ingalls Wilder’s wonderful semi-autobiographical Little House series contains some of my very favorite titles of all time.  If you don’t have the complete set in your home, TELL Santa Claus to bring it, and no two ways about it.  Every home needs these books.  Our society needs these stories to help us [...]

If You Love Something, Give It Away: The Maestro Program

November 22, 2009 – 3:17 am

Mamacita says:  A huge thank-you to Super Cool School for posting this video. Billy Madison‘s speech made everyone in the room dumber, but  Itay Talgam not only makes the world smarter: he makes the world smile.  Somehow, watching this gentleman makes me feel better about the world, and even about. . . me.  And that, [...]

Quotation Saturday: Community

November 7, 2009 – 11:51 pm

Mamacita says:  “Community” is something that many people take for granted, and even discount or abuse, but when all is said and done, this “community” thing is the backbone of society.  Those of us who work in social media know this, but I wonder sometimes if everybody realizes how very, very important our treatment of [...]

Mamacita says:   In a few days, I’ll be off to Blog Indiana – which you don’t have to be from Indiana to attend, why don’t all of you sign up, too? I’m hooked now on writing conferences.  Social media get-togethers have become my crack cocaine.  No longer do I have to cook my meth [...]
