Did you know you missed me? Because you did.
So, long time no see. I kind of have the shakes right now because I have been busy the past few days and haven’t been able to write anything substantive or read as many blogs as I normally do. My mom has been in town hanging out with us, so that’s my alibi. Adorable outfits […]
A Major Award
I was recently awarded The Addictive Blog Award by A Flock of Crows. No, not a literal flock of crows. The only thing I’ve ever been awarded by a bird is The Crap on My Head Award by a pigeon in Chicago, and I’m not going to dignify that award with a hyperlink, much less a […]
I’m kind of a big deal.
Today, I technically have nothing for you to read on my blog. Howevs, I WAS asked by Ashley of Ashley, Etc. to write a guest post! This means that I have arrived, as people are actually asking me to write for them. It’s only a matter of time before JK Rowling asks me to write […]
Don’t Make Me Beg
My blog has been hijacked. This is nothing new. First Miss C hijacked it with her cuteness and now Le Clown has hijacked it with his, erm, well, it’s not cuteness. His magnificence? Yeah, let’s go with that. Today is the last day of Le Clown’s Blogroll Contest. Le Clown is also Le Marketing Genius. […]
Babies Aren’t the Only Absurd Things
Actual conversation that just occurred: B: Are you playing that Clown blogroll game again? Me: Dur. YES. I may actually win. B: Well that sounds like a great use of your time. Me: This from the person who is tweeting at Zooey Deschanel until she tweets back at you. Yeah. So that’s what we’re doing […]
Babies Are Absurd
I was washing the dishes yesterday with Miss C in her little Rock ‘N Play thing next to me, just watching me. And it occurred to me. Babies are ridiculous. Truly ridiculous. I think it’s like when you say a word over and over and over, and eventually it sounds like martian-talk. When you think […]
Le Clown, Indeed
fyfrghfghftyfvghfvhfghv bnn,mjlkhkjbnmvcbnvdgfgcvbnvhj Sorry, that was Miss C. She’s a tad annoyed with me this morning because I am more interested in getting on Le Clown’s blogroll than, y’know, washing her diapers. Looks like she’ll be wearing her Up&Up Target brand diapers for a couple more hours, much to the chagrin of Greenpeace. Mama’s got priorities, […]
Finding Flow
When we were there, the national motto for the Philippines seemed to be “please bear with us.” There were handwritten signs at the resort with that line, asking us to have patience with certain doors that weren’t functioning correctly or credit card machines that were on the fritz. The currency exchange booths – which were […]
The B Word
You should always have an ongoing project. Last year, my project was being pregnant. And it’s funny, but when I was pregnant with C, actually having a baby was still a hypothetical thing to me. This is probably pretty common among first pregnancies. It’s hard to wrap your brain around the immediacy of actually having […]






Fan Mail
One of my favorite things about blogging is the comments that my readers leave. There is nothing better than getting feedback from people all over the globe who are reading my blog! It often takes me just as long to answer all the comments as it did to write the post they refer to. Today […]
