BlogHer Stream of Consciousness : Day One

4:15 AM. If today had been a football Saturday and Chris had woken me up at that time to head to Tuscaloosa, I’d still be grumbling tonight. As it was, I magically rolled out of bed and got ready for my flight without complaining for a second. I explained to Chris that I must have […]

Inside View.

Yesterday I had my REAL mid-way through my pregnancy sonogram. (And yes, it’s true, I’ve had like five sonograms now. I don’t know how I’ve managed to rack up that many, although my tilted unicorn was definitely helpful in the process.) Noah checked out great – a couple of days ahead of schedule, and, much […]

Whirlwinds.

So, last week. I’m still trying to catch my breath from it all… …returning from vacation and trying to get caught up on everything under the sun… …finding out that I was going to be a Mom of a BOY child… …picking out a name for said boy child much quicker than we anticipated… …my […]

Hello, I’m Applying for a Day Off.

I am NOT blogging today. Can you tell? I spent half of yesterday on the couch, or in other general misery, and the other half working, because during-naptime-work didn’t go away just because I didn’t feel good.

Survey Saturday: What Blogs Should I Read?

One more thing that I realized while I was at Blogher is that I don’t read hardly any “superstar” blogs. I kept having people around me talk about being starry eyed at all of the “celebrity” bloggers they had spotted over the weekend, and I would have no idea who they were talking about, and […]

However, those same roommates may make fun of you if you talk in your sleep. 26. Especially if you talk […]

What Happens When I’m In Charge.

My husband and I get along amazingly – we seriously rarely argue or disagree. (Which is one of the reasons that I Missed him so badly while I was gone.) However, we approach a lot of things very differently. Especially vacation planning. But because I’m lazy I like to keep things flowing smoothly, I always […]

What Goes Down, Must Come Up.

I’m sitting here at the airport, waiting to board. Which means, that by getting out my laptop and starting this post, a boarding call should be like. . .. NOW. I’m absolutely DYING for a fountain coke, but talked myself out of getting one for fear of deja vu from the flight here in which […]

Relapse

When I was a little girl, my parents often let me go spend the night with friends. You know, because it’s what little girls did. You stayed up way past the point that you should have, played house, barbies, pretended to marry your friend’s little brother, and promised to be best friends forever and made […]
