I suppose it’s time to get on the up and up regarding my deep enjoyment of celebrity news. It is a long standing habit, one that shall never be corrected in therapy. Juicy print media goes a long way in my book: I develop deep allegiances to medical offices with a fine selection of periodicals, and a longtime mama friend has forever solidifed her place in my heart by passing along her copies of US Weekly. By golly, it brings a tear to the eye.

But if you find yourself stranded without a print media fix, acquaint yourself with the latest celebrity dish at People Magazine online. My love for this site is renewed, now that they got rid of the nonsense of signing in to view their pages.

Mama’ing is incredibly complex. Multiply the mamas times two and a host of new logistical and emotional issues emerge. Vanessa Jones of The Boston Globe reports (May 29, 2006) on a volume that was culled and edited by Harlyn Aizley of Roslindale. This collection of 18 essays (including pieces from five Boston area mamas) is titled “Confessions of the Other Mother: Nonbiological Lesbian Moms Tell All!” and gives voice and description to the challenges faced by nonbiological lesbian moms.

“Confessions” is available on Amazon (regular retail $16, currently on sale for $11.20).
