My lil guy was congested and curled up against me the other night as he fell asleep. He started hacking and seemed to have trouble breathing so I picked him up and headed down the hall to recline on the sofa and allow him some relief lounging at an angle.

Danny Bonaduce's latest and greatest feat is a show called "I Know My Kid's a Star." The show pits a bunch of stage moms against each other, at the expense of their kids, to determine who's got the next big child star. In one word: pathetic. The program premiered last week and showed how one gal fell victim to Bonaduce's funk upon arrival. No biggie. He's used to it. (Thanks, College Humor!) Read more

In honor of Freaky Friday (today's Friday the 13th!), I thought I'd pull together a list of 13 freaky foods. Even if you don't have triskaidekaphobia (the fear of the number 13), you may be afraid of some of the things on this list.

It's the perfect, yet not-so-sexy, storm of heavy drinking and vomiting, followed by unprotected sex. See, if you vomit shortly after taking your pill, it's no longer in your system.

While many of us will be imbibing in merriment on St. Patrick's Day, it's important to keep the booze out of reach of your pet. Just as it does in humans, alcohol causes damage to an animal's brain, central nervous system, and liver, but since pets are much smaller than us, the effects can occur faster and more intensely and even lead to death. If your pet gets their paws on your bevvie, watch Read more
You may think that heart attacks happen when you're older, and when they do, the sudden, gripping pain in your chest will be all you need to know that you're having one. But a new study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association has found that in reality, women are getting heart attacks younger and without the normal symptoms we think are the signs of a heart attack. The study, Read more

When I recently asked which is worst: pink eye, stomach bug, or the flu, over half of you voted that a stomach bug is the absolute worst. And I must agree. This awful illness is responsible for all the worst symptoms: nausea accompanied by vomiting, abdominal cramps, the runs, headaches, and a fever. Ugh, I feel sick just thinking about it.
